“The United States has lost control of their budget at a time when racking up deficits has been authorized without any control (from Congress),”
Thierry Breton
“Our ultimate goal- total control of handguns in the United States- is going to take time... The first problem is to slow down the increasing number of handguns being produced... The second problem is to get handguns registered. And the final problem is to make the possession of handguns and all handgun ammunition- except for the military, policemen, licensed security guards, licensed sporting clubs, and licensed gun collectors - totally illegal.”
Sarah Brady
“The United States is like giant boiler. Once the fire is lighted under it, there is no limit to the power it can generate.”
Winston Churchill
“The United States government must not undertake to run the Churches. When an individual, in the Church or out of it, becomes dangerous to the public interest he must be checked.”
Abraham Lincoln
“The political and commercial morals of the United States are not merely food for laughter, they are an entire banquet”
Mark Twain
“The United States is unusual among the industrial democracies in the rigidity of the system of ideological control / ''indoctrination',' we might say / exercised through the mass media.”
Avram Noam Chomsky
“Fortunately, the time has long passed when people liked to regard the United States as some kind of melting pot, taking men and women from every part of the world and converting them into standardized, homogenized Americans. We are, I think, much more mature and wise today. Just as we welcome a world of diversity, so we glory in an America of diversity -- an America all the richer for the many different and distinctive strands of which it is woven.”
Hubert H. Humphrey
