The Chinese government places great importance on this visit.

Privacy is a protection from the unreasonable use of state and corporate power. But that is, in a sense, a secondary thing. In the first instance, privacy is the statement in words of a simple...

A terrible piece of work. Addicted to the media and leaking. A junior minister in Government at best.

It does not relieve the government of its liability,

Here is a principle to use in all aspects of economics and policy. When you find a good or service that is in huge demand but the supply is so limited to the point that...

We urge the US Government to stop interfering in China’s religious affairs under the guise of the religion issue,

This is how best to effect change. If you reiterate the same fears and the same sensible measures with proper augmentation enough times, even difficult decisions will begin to seem like the only justifiable solutions.

Having a Constitutional political party is a little like telling a car-jacker, “You’re not allowed to do what you’re doing! And if you don’t stop it right now, we are going to ask you to...

A little government and a little luck are necessary in life, but only a fool trusts either of them.

The world is not sliding, but galloping into a new transnational dystopia. This development has not been properly recognized outside of national security circles. It has been hidden by secrecy, complexity and scale. The internet,...

The year 2100 will see eugenics universally established. In past ages, the law governing the survival of the fittest roughly weeded out the less desirable strains. Then man’s new sense of pity began to interfere...

It seemed to me then – and to be honest, sir, seems to me still – that America was engaged only in posturing. As a society, you were unwilling to reflect upon the shared pain...

Unless government appropriately regulates oil developments and holds oil executives accountable, the public will not trust them to drill, baby, drill. And we must!

The world, viewed philosophically, remains a series of slave camps, where citizens – tax livestock – labor under the chains of illusion in the service of their masters.

Damned Beaver/Jeremy is the War, he is every assertion the fucking War has ever made–that we are meant for work and government, for austerity: and these shall take priority over love, dreams, the spirit, the...

Dear Government… I’m going to have a serious talk with you if I ever find anyone to talk to.

We have conveyed our concerns… Government has said those concerns on WTO issues would be kept in mind when the final modalities are worked out in April.

A campaign to make government officials and leaders of state-owned enterprises give up their shares in coal mines has achieved initial success.

Why do people look to the government to fix the economy? It’s mind-boggling.

It is preposterous to suppose that the people of one generation can lay down the best and only rules of government for all who are to come after them, and under unforeseen contingencies.

We must judge a government by its general tendencies and not by its happy accidents.

Child custody has always been a state responsibility. Now, the federal government and the attorney general are trying to all of a sudden take that away, without ever interviewing the child.

They’re talking about turning the Hollywood studios into an organ of the government.

We did well considering the winds were against us. It’s still possible to run a stable government.

We’re calling on the visiting Japanese ministers to pressure their government into stopping whaling in the Southern Ocean.

I have passed on the very resolute position of my government regarding the necessity of dialogue and a political solution.

Income inequality has no necessary connection with poverty, the lack of material resources for a decent life, such as adequate food, shelter, and clothing. A society with great income inequality may have no poor people,...

When it can be said by any country in the world, my poor are happy, neither ignorance nor distress is to be found among them, my jails are empty of prisoners, my streets of beggars,...

The principle of equality, which makes men independent of each other, gives them a habit and a taste for following, in their private actions, no other guide but their own will. This complete independence, which...

In bad countries the government takes care of everyone. In the best ones that’s not necessary!‏

As readers, we have gone from learning a precious craft whose secret was held by a jealous few, to taking for granted a skin that has become subordinate to principles of mindless financial profit or...

The federal government was seen as key toward innovation and technological progress, by defining what’s essentially civilian, like the space program, as a government endeavor.

I froze, shocked. (And don’t try to claim that you did anything different the first time a government bureaucrat pulled a gun on you.)

The policy is still very defensive. The government doesn’t know what’s going to replace the economic activity that is being moved to China.

Government can easily exist without laws, but law cannot exist without government.

In the tired hand of a dying man, Theodore Senior had written: “The ‘Machine politicians’ have shown their colors… I feel sorry for the country however as it shows the power of partisan politicians who...

In revealing the workings of government that led to the Vietnam War, the newspapers nobly did precisely that which the Founders hoped and trusted they would do.

My schooling not only failed to teach me what it professed to be teaching, but prevented me from being educated to an extent which infuriates me when I think of all I might have learned...

The military state is the final form to which every planned economy tends rapidly.

Governments are nothing more than elaborate Rube Goldberg apparatuses, operating with absurd inefficiency. Why walk ten steps when you can make it there in a hundred?

Further talks to progress arrangements around forming a government are likely to be held in the coming week.

The government of Sudan should not have anything against the UN.

Experience teaches effectually, but brutally. It makes us acquainted with all the effects of an action, by causing us to feel them; and we cannot fail to finish by knowing that fire burns, if we...

These three issues alone eat up the monthly cash flow coming into this government under the current economic condition. There’s not enough money, if any, to do other things, and that’s a very precarious situation.

In effect, the poor person is a rich person left to fend for him or herself, without the support of institutions that help the person to take ‘good’ decisions.

My hobbies include rubbing my nipples across a cheese grater, meeting cat ladies on Tinder, and voting for either Democrat or Republican every four years. You could say I am a torture enthusiast.

There is also a trilogy of books out. I started reading right after Christmas Divergent. I went to read Insurgent after, and now I’m on the third one. I don’t know, it’s Detergent or whatever....

I’m convinced this will allow us to slowly build a majority in parliament and allow backing for the government until 2009.

In the councils of government, we must guard against the acquisition of unwarranted influence, whether sought or unsought, by the military industrial complex. The potential for the disastrous rise of misplaced power exists and will...
