Aid leads to more aid and more aid and more aid and less independence of the people that are receiving aid.

A general flat minimum-wage law for all industry is permissible, but i do not think that it is a particularly wise method of achieving the end. i know much better methods of providing a minimum for everybody. but once you turn from laying down a general minimum for all industry to decreeing particular and different minimum for different industries, then, of course, you make the price mechanism inoperative, because it is no longer the price mechanism which will guide people between industries and trades.
Wise Thinking Law
To the second end, we hold that minimum wage commissions should be established in the nation and in each state to inquire into wages paid in various industries and to determine the standard which the public ought to sanction as a minimum; and we believe that, as a present installment of what we hope for in the future, there should be at once established in the nation and its several states minimum standards for the wages of women, taking the present massachusetts law as a basis from which to start and on which to improve.

I think a draft produces a better army than the one we would have with all volunteers, because i think you get average americans if you have a draft. and if it's an all-volunteer army, you get people who join up because of some problem in their own lives. they don't have anything else to do, they don't have a job, or they can't find what they want to do, so they join the army. and it doesn't produce the best army.

Economists may not know much. but we know one thing very well: how to produce surpluses and shortages. do you want a surplus? have the government legislate a minimum price that is above the price that would otherwise prevail. that is what we have done at one time or another to produce surpluses of wheat, of sugar, of butter, of many other commodities. do you want a shortage? have the government legislate a maximum price that is below the price that would otherwise prevail.

I regret, as much as any member, the unavoidable weight and duration of the burdens to be imposed; having never been a proselyte to the doctrine, that public debts are public benefits. i consider them, on the contrary, as evils which ought to be removed as fast as honor and justice will permit.
Regret Government Evil
We are a religious nation because we do not have a state religion, because the government guarantees freedom of religion but has no role in religion, because not only do we tolerate our religious differences, we celebrate them.
Religious Government Differences
No people without a government of their own can expect to be treated on the same level as people of independent sovereign states. it is far better to be free to govern or misgovern yourself than to be governed by anybody else . . .
