“We were sad to see it come down without any notice. We understand that it's privately owned and on private property, but from our perspective, it would have been nice to have been given notice so we could have taken photos, or gotten historical things out of the building.

Doug Crispin
“All systems are capitalist. It's just a matter of who owns and controls the capital -- ancient king, dictator, or private individual. We should properly be looking at the contrast between a free market system where individuals have the right to live like kings if they have the ability to earn that right and government control of the market system such as we find today in socialist nations.”
Ronald Reagan

“I would much prefer to see the arena not only owned and constructed but operated by the private sector. That takes it totally out of the government's hands, and it would be much better promoted. That, in itself, brings dividends to the city. That's the economic payoff to the city.”
Jerry Shuster
“Private consumers ... are not criminals and to portray them as such is insulting and counter productive.”
Jim Murray (BEUC)
“Customers are understanding that private label doesn't mean inferior, and they're figuring out that what they pay for with a brand is the television commercials. We can deliver the same quality, often made in the same factory, at substantial savings.”
David Levin
“Most of the vessels are made of fiber glass, and are owned by the private sectors who are working for the Cooperation.”
