More quotes by William Greider
The threat to globalization is not the wasted American dollars but Washington's readiness to mix US commercial interests with its self-appointed role as global protector.
William Greider
If one benefits tangibly from the exploitation of others who are weak, is one morally implicated in their predicament? Or are basic rights of human existence confined to the civilized societies that are wealthy enough to afford them? Our values are defined by what we will tolerate when it is done to others.

In the deregulated realm of US banking and finance, crime does occasionally pay for its foul deeds, not in prison time but by making modest rebates to the victims.
William Greider
A profound political question is suddenly on the table: Must the country continue to give precedence to private financial gain and market determinism over human lives and broad public values?
William Greider
Democracy begins in human conversation. A democratic conversation does not require elaborate rules of procedure or utopian notions of perfect consensus. What it does require is a spirit of mutual respect-people conversing critically with one another in an atmosphere of honesty and shared regard.

William Greider
Children born today have a fifty-fifty chance of living to 100.
William Greider
The do-it-yourself version of pensions is a flop, as many Americans have painfully learned.
William Greider
If we have wealth, it will be protected from inflation and possibly even enhanced in value.
William Greider
The economy is not governed with the bottom half in mind.
William Greider
When self-important people and powerful institutions are governed by illusion, history has a way of biting back.
William Greider
Efficiency obliterates identity
William Greider
In its present terms, the global system values property over human life.
William Greider
Money is power in American politics. It always has been.
William Greider
The problem of modern democracy is rooted in its neglect of unorganized people.
William Greider
People know elections, like television commercials, are not real.
William Greider
Democracy is held captive, not just by money, but by ideas - the ideas that money buys.
William Greider
Folks in the bottom half of the economy are already squeezed hard. They will be bloodied and bankrupt if economic policy inadvertently induces a recession.
