  "On an individual level, how many poor immigrants to N America arrived penniless from Europe & within a few decades were rich?   Andrew Carnegie arrived in America a poor Scotsman & started to work at $1.20 a week.   His rise to riches has been matched on a smaller scale by millions.   No big mystery, just brains & hard work in a [relatively] free market economy." --- Charles Adams 1993 _For Good & Evil_

the biggest college/university scandal of all
"...College tuition, room-and-board costs can now exceed $50K to $70K a year.   This is a massive financial hardship for the families that actually pay out of pocket the $200K to $300K tab for a 4-year degree and for those who get loans.   The debt for a 22-year-old graduate can easily exceed $100K.   Meanwhile, the size of the student loan debt nationwide has reached some $1.5T...   ‷the 25 colleges and universities with the largest endowments in the country reaped $6.9G in [USA Department of Educationism, i.e. tax-victim] funding despite holding $250G in existing assets, collectively‴..."

  "About three-quarters of STEM majors -- and half of engineers -- end up in jobs that don't use their specialized training.     STEM degrees impress a wide swath of employers, opening doors to careers in not only technology, but finance and business.     What does this mean for ‷social‴ returns?     With Cautious signaling, Excellent and Good Students in high-earning majors like electrical engineering still do well.     With Reasonable signaling, however, the most ‷qualified‴ students studying the most lucrative majors remain burdens to ‷society‴.     The same goes for students at highly selective but affordable colleges, and students who love school: ‷social‴ investments in their education are relatively rewarding but absolutely wasteful... colleges seem to use cheap majors...to cross-subsidize expensive majors like engineering." --- Bryan Douglas Caplan 2018 _The Case Against Education: Why the Education System Is a Waste of Time and Money_ pg190 (citing Kevin Stange 2015 "Differential Pricing in UnderGraduate Education: Effects on Degree Production by Field" _Journal of Policy Analysis and Management_ vol34 #1 pp103-135)

  "[Executives of] Multi-nationals need [want] low wages, stable governments, and educated labor forces to establish facilities that can compete with those in the USA.   In Europe low wages are already gone.   And they are rapidly disappearing in those parts of Asia ([South] Korea, Taiwan, Hong Kong, Singapore) that have stable governments, [some respect for private property], and an educated labor force...   When foreign multi-nationals enter the USA they speed up the transmission of industrial knowledge from high-productivity areas abroad to low-productivity areas in the USA." --- Lester C. Thurow 1980 _The Zero-Sum Society_ pg 92

"Thus saith the Lord GOD: Let it suffice you, O princes of Israel; remove violence and spoil, and execute justice and righteousness; take away your exactions from My people, saith the Lord GOD. Ye shall have just balances, and a just ephah..." --- Ezekiel/ יחזקאל/ Yechezqal 45:9-
"Now this is the mitzvoth, the statutes, and the ordinances, which HaShem your God commanded (Moshah/Moses/Musa) to teach you, that you might comply-with/execute/carry-out/fulfill/do them in the land to which you go to possess... Hear, oh Israel; HaShem our God, HaShem is unique. And you must love HaShem your God, with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your might. And these words, which I command you this day, must be in your heart; and you must teach them diligently to your children, and must talk about them when you sit in your house, and when you walk by the path, and when you lie down, and when you rise up. And you must bind them like a sign on your hand (so you will often see them), and as a sign on your fore-head between your eyes (so others with you will often see them). And you must write them on the door-posts of your house, and on your gates (so those who enter or pass by will see them)." --- Deuteronomy/ דברים/ deberim/debrim/words 5-6

  "In 1820 the Scotland-born commissioner for Assam in India, Robert Scott, found a strange species of camellias he had never seen before.   He sent it to London for analysis; it turned out to be a wild tea plant.   Within a generation, Indian-grown tea would shoulder the Chinese product out of the British market.   If Palmerston and Minto had only waited, the demand for China tea would have faded and, with it, the need to smuggle opium.   But then Hong Kong, Asia's premier commercial city and modern China's window onto the capitalist West, would not exist." --- Arthur Herman 2001 _How the Scots Invented the Modern World_ pg307 foot-note

  "If you watch the ways of men, you will see that those who obtain great wealth & power do so either by force or fraud, & having got them they conceal under some honest name the foulness of their deeds.   Whilst those who through lack of wisdom, or from simplicity, do not employ these methods are always stifled in slavery or poverty.   Faithful slaves always remain slaves, & good men are always poor men.   Men will never escape from slavery unless they are unfaithful & bold, nor from poverty unless they are rapacious & fraudulent, because both God & Nature have placed the fortunes of man in such a position that they are reached rather by robbery than by industry, & by evil rather than by honest skill." --- Nicolo Machiavelli 1532 _History of Florence & of the Affairs of Italy from the Earliest Times to the Death of Lorenzo the Magnificent_ (quoted in Irving Kristol 1983 "Machiavelli & the Profanation of Politics" _Reflections of a NeoConservative_ pg 129, quoted by Robert L.

  "On the Tuesday after Pearl Harbor, a somber Roosevelt summoned Knudsen to the White House.   He had already seen Knudsen's report on production in 1941.   The numbers were impressive: 19,290 planes, 50,684 aircraft engines, 97K machine guns, 9,924 40mm Bofors anti-aircraft guns, 3,964 tanks, and more.   He needed 30K planes in 1942 instead of the 18K Knudsen and his team had projected.   He wanted 45K tanks, and 75K in 1943; 20K anti-aircraft guns; and 8M tons of merchant shipping instead of the 1.1M tons produced in 1941...   Knudsen...and his team had figured out that 45K planes of all types for 1942 was not out of the question...   The next day, Roosevelt told the country in his State of the Union speech that USA would produce 60K war-planes in 1942 and 125K the following year, and threw a couple of zeroes [multiplied by 100 or 1K] onto the other production numbers, as well." --- Arthur Herman 2012 _Freedom's Forge: How USA Business Produced Victory in World War 2_ pg157 (a fine addition to any library)
