More From Alan Greenspan

We have seen numerous instances in which american businesses have brought in foreign skilled workers after having laid off skilled american workers, simply because they can get the foreign workers more cheaply. it has become a major means of circumventing the costs of paying skilled american workers or the costs of training them.
Mean Training Immigration
Skilled shortages in america exist because we are shielding our skilled labor force from world competition. [visa quotas] have been substituted for the wage pricing mechanism. in the process we have created [a] privileged elite whose incomes are being supported at non-competitively high levels by immigration quotas on skilled professionals. eliminating such restrictions would reduce at least some of the income inequality.

Good people hire people better than themselves. so a players hire a+ players. but others hire below their skills to make themselves look good. so b players hire c players. c players hire d players, etc.

We ought to be opening up our borders to skilled labour from all parts of the world because [the state of the world is as follows: ] if we were to do that we would increase the supply of skilled workers that our schools have been unable to create and as a consequence of that we would lower the average wage of skills and reduce the degree of income inequality in this country.

Great companies don’t hire skilled people and motivate them, they hire already motivated people and inspire them. people are either motivated or they are not. unless you give motivated people something to believe in, something bigger than their job to work toward, they will motivate themselves to find a new job and you’ll be stuck with whoever’s left.

Of all the nations in the western world, the united states, with the most money and the most time, has the fewest readers of books per capita. this is an incalculable loss. this, too, is one of the few civilized nations in the world which is unable to support a single magazine devoted solely to books.
Book Reading Loss
I've made movies that were adaptations and i've been kind of frustrated by the process because, you know that old axiom, 'it's never as good as the book'? it's often true because nothing competes with your own imagination. when you're reading a book and you imagine something in your head, nothing's going to compete with that.
Book Reading Imagination
I don't have a cellphone or a computer. i deliberately circumscribe my mental life within the periods that i write about, and the power of perfidia is that it's the result of complete immersion. i was there for the two years that it took me to write that book.

The bible and several other self help or enlightenment books cite the seven deadly sins. they are: pride, greed, lust, envy, wrath, sloth, and gluttony. that pretty much covers everything that we do, that is sinful... or fun for that matter.
