If you have free trade and free circulation of
capital and people but destroy the social state and all forms of progressive taxation, the temptations of defensive nationalism and identity politics will very likely grow stronger than ever in both Europe and the United States. Note, finally, that the less developed countries will be among the primary beneficiaries of a more just and transparent international tax system. ~ Thomas Piketty
Irelands Economy quotes by Thomas Piketty
If you're a politician it's very useful to say that we can have economic growth and at the same time green the economy, but writers just have to face up to the fact that there are some fundamental tensions between the economic order and the biological order. ~ Michael Pollan
Irelands Economy quotes by Michael Pollan
Fear of foreign domination in India led the Janata Party, in the 1970s, to push for partial Indian ownership of all multinational firms within the country. The result was a spectacular pullback, by companies such as IBM and Coca-Cola, and a stagnant economy. ~ Peter Blair Henry
Irelands Economy quotes by Peter Blair Henry
I shall easily show that it is impossible to tax further, ruinous to be always borrowing and not enough to confine ourselves to measures of economy. ~ Charles Alexandre De Calonne
Irelands Economy quotes by Charles Alexandre De Calonne
Unemployment is considered an evil today, but it would not be if it were supported by a social dividend and spread out over the economy. What if everyone worked 20 percent less, instead of 20 percent of the people working not at all? This economic circumstance coincides with a shift in consciousness as more and more of us reject the conventional notion of work - the division of life into two exclusive zones, work and leisure. ~ Anonymous
Irelands Economy quotes by Anonymous
In the pursuit of greater equality in our education system, from K to PhD, technology access, print literacies, and verbal skill all collide as requirements for even basic participation in an information-based, technology-dependent economy and society. ~ Adam J. Banks
Irelands Economy quotes by Adam J. Banks
Whoever controls the flow of Persian Gulf oil has a stranglehold not only on our economy but also on the other countries of the world as well. ~ Dick Cheney
Irelands Economy quotes by Dick Cheney
Gaming is the backbone of Nevada's economy. ~ Kenny Guinn
Irelands Economy quotes by Kenny Guinn
Political economy is the science of free society. Its theory and its history alike establish this position. Its fundamental maxims, Laissez-faire and 'Pas trop gouverner' are at war with all kinds of slavery, for they in fact assert that individuals and peoples prosper most when governed least. ~ George Fitzhugh
Irelands Economy quotes by George Fitzhugh
Terrorism grows when there are no other options, and when the center of the global economy is the god of money and not the person - men and women - this is already the first terrorism! ~ Pope Francis
Irelands Economy quotes by Pope Francis
It might seem to you that living in the woods on a riverbank would remove you from the modern world. But not if the river is navigable, as ours is. On pretty weekends in the summer, this riverbank is the very verge of the modern world. It is a seat in the front row, you might say. On those weekends, the river is disquieted from morning to night by people resting from their work.
This resting involves traveling at great speed, first on the road and then on the river. The people are in an emergency to relax. They long for the peace and quiet of the great outdoors. Their eyes are hungry for the scenes of nature. They go very fast in their boats. They stir the river like a spoon in a cup of coffee. They play their radios loud enough to hear above the noise of their motors. They look neither left nor right. They don't slow down for - or maybe even see - an old man in a rowboat raising his lines...
I watch and I wonder and I think. I think of the old slavery, and of the way The Economy has now improved upon it. The new slavery has improved upon the old by giving the new slaves the illusion that they are free. The Economy does not take people's freedom by force, which would be against its principles, for it is very humane. It buys their freedom, pays for it, and then persuades its money back again with shoddy goods and the promise of freedom. ~ Wendell Berry
Irelands Economy quotes by Wendell Berry
At every point in our food economy, present conditions remaining, we must expect to come to a time when demand (for quantity or quality) going up will meet the culture coming down. The fact is that we have nearly destroyed American farming, and in the process have nearly destroyed our country.

from the essay
"Nature As Measure ~ Wendell Berry
Irelands Economy quotes by Wendell Berry
Greece's European neighbors were able step in and bolster the weak foundation on which Greece's free-spending budget was based. It would be difficult for any country, or intergovernmental organization, to rescue an economy the size of the U.S. if investors were ever to lose faith in our bonds because of our enormous debt. ~ Douglas Wilder
Irelands Economy quotes by Douglas Wilder
Our entire economy is based on productivity measures that have little to do with "human input". Sooner or later the entire system will collapse revealing the fallacy of an economy based on finance. ~ Said Elias Dawlabani
Irelands Economy quotes by Said Elias Dawlabani
You would have thought that our first priority would be to ask what the ecologists are finding out, because we have to live within the conditions and principles they define. Instead, we've elevated the economy above ecology. ~ David Suzuki
Irelands Economy quotes by David Suzuki
... what I'm saying is that if we and all the other species on earth are the only life forms in the universe and if there are no gods and let's face it apart from a few tired scrolls written 300 years after the death of Jesus and his disciples there is no actual proof of a God or gods then we, the humans, who are meant to be at the height of the evolutionary tree, are in fact at the bottom because no other species on this planet is enslaved to the economy. Every other species is born free and lives free. We humans are born into economic slavery and life crippling debt. ~ Arun D. Ellis
Irelands Economy quotes by Arun D. Ellis
Uncertainty is killing this economy. ~ Herman Cain
Irelands Economy quotes by Herman Cain
For complexity does not inevitably heighten a story's verisimilitude, or its power to convince; sometimes simplicity and economy make for a more vigorous exposition, propelling the drama forward. ~ Yan Lianke
Irelands Economy quotes by Yan Lianke
In a market economy, a main determinant of social standing is participation in the labor market and the associated willingness to 'self-commodify' (e.g., Esping-Andersen 1999), the latter term nicely emphasizing how market economies render all forms of worth, even self-worth, a function of market valuation. When individuals fail to self-commodify, they fall outside the most fundamental institutions of the society, thereby reducing them to nonentities and social ciphers. This is why a mere transfer of income to the underclass... is inconsequential in relieving feelings of social exclusion. If anything, such a transfer only draws attention to the initial failure to self-commodify. although a class map also embodies distinctions of social standing among those who have an enduring commitment to the labor market, the social divide between the underclass and all other classes looms especially large because it captures this fundamental insider-outsider distinction. ~ Ravi Kanbur
Irelands Economy quotes by Ravi Kanbur
Probably no single event highlights the strength of Campbell's argument (on peak oil) better than the rapid development of the Alberta tar sands. Bitumen, the world's ugliest and most expensive hydrocarbon, can never be a reasonable substitute for light oil due to its extreme capital, energy, and carbon intensity. Bitumen looks, smells, and behaves like asphalt; running an economy on it is akin to digging up our existing road infrastructure, melting it down, and enriching the goop with hydrogen until it becomes a sulfur-rich but marketable oil. ~ Andrew Nikiforuk
Irelands Economy quotes by Andrew Nikiforuk
There's plenty of juice to keep this economy going. ~ Steve Forbes
Irelands Economy quotes by Steve Forbes
The income effects in an economy always sum to zero. ~ Arthur Laffer
Irelands Economy quotes by Arthur Laffer
Men wrestle with the things they cannot change, and they ignore those that might bend to some economy of effort. ~ Hugh Howey
Irelands Economy quotes by Hugh Howey
If an economy is to sustain progress, it must satisfy the basic principles of ecology. If it does not, it will decline and eventually collapse. There is no middle ground ~ Lester R. Brown
Irelands Economy quotes by Lester R. Brown
13 million Indians will join the workforce every year from now till 2030. They know their prospects aren't good. Here's why: in the years from 1972 to 1983 - not celebrated as a time of overwhelming prosperity - the total number of jobs in the economy nevertheless grew 2.3 per cent a year. In the years between liberalization in 1991 and today, jobs have grown at an average of only 1.6 per cent a year. But, if these young people have to be absorbed, then jobs must grow at least 3 per cent a year - almost twice the rate at which they have since liberalization. This is simply not happening. In other words, one out of every two youngsters who starts looking for a job next year won't find one. ~ Mihir S. Sharma
Irelands Economy quotes by Mihir S. Sharma
This election presents a stark choice - we can continue down the road of the Obama Democrats, more and more spending, debt and government control of the economy, or we can return to the founding principles of our nation - free markets, fiscal responsibility and individual liberty. ~ Ted Cruz
Irelands Economy quotes by Ted Cruz
Look at life as an energy economy game. Each day, ask yourself, Are my energy expenditures (actions, reactions, thoughts, and feelings) productive or nonproductive? During the course of my day, have I accumulated more stress or more peace? ~ Howard Martin
Irelands Economy quotes by Howard Martin
Law of economy: nothing is waste. Even the unreal. What a sublimity in the process. ~ Philip K. Dick
Irelands Economy quotes by Philip K. Dick
Justice makes the life of such as are in prosperity, power and authority the life of a god, and injustice turns it to that of a beast. ~ Plutarch
Irelands Economy quotes by Plutarch
If we all turned down the thermostat in our house by just one degree, we would save over £650 million worth of energy and nearly nine million tonnes of carbon emissions every year. That would be the equivalent of taking three million cars off our roads ... we can bring about a Green Consumer Revolution in this country to improve our lives, enrich our economy and protect our environment. ~ David Cameron
Irelands Economy quotes by David Cameron
The ideal situation for any state is to experience sharp economic growth while its rivals' economies grow slowly or hardly at all. ~ John Mearsheimer
Irelands Economy quotes by John Mearsheimer
In a good economy, people work hard to succeed. In a bad economy, people work hard to not fail. ~ Jarod Kintz
Irelands Economy quotes by Jarod Kintz
Health is certainly extremely important, and we've done a number of things at Facebook to help improve global health and work in that area, and I am excited to do more there, too. But the reality is that it's not an either-or. People need to be healthy and be able to have the Internet as a backbone to connect them to the whole economy. ~ Mark Zuckerberg
Irelands Economy quotes by Mark Zuckerberg
May I always have a heart superior, with economy suitable, to my fortune. ~ William Shenstone
Irelands Economy quotes by William Shenstone
The serious problem is the education of the peasantry. The peasant economy is scattered, and the socialization of agriculture, judging by the Soviet Union's experience, will require a long time and painstaking work. Without socialization of agriculture, there can be no complete, consolidated socialism. ~ Mao Zedong
Irelands Economy quotes by Mao Zedong
World War II was really unusual, because America was in the Great Depression before. So the war did help the US economy to get securely out of this decline. This time, the war [in Iraq] is bad for the economy in both the short and long run. We could have spent trillions in research or education instead. This would have led to future productivity increases. ~ Joseph Stiglitz
Irelands Economy quotes by Joseph Stiglitz
I don't know anything more piggish - I don't know anything more un-American than saying, 'Oh, I'm worried about my own little handout or my own little program or my own little economy and we'll kick this can down the road and let some future generation deal with it.' ~ Todd Rokita
Irelands Economy quotes by Todd Rokita
Those who seek to suppress voting today are either ignorant of the history or are, as I suspect is more often the case, malevolently choosing to ignore it...

To suppress the vote is to make a mockery of democracy. And those who do so are essentially acknowledging that their policies are unpopular. If you can't convince a majority of voters that your ideas are worthy, you try to limit the pool of voters. This reveals a certain irony: Many who are most vocal in championing a free, open, and dynamic economy are the same political factions that suppress these principles when it comes to the currency of ideas. ~ Dan Rather
Irelands Economy quotes by Dan Rather
The truth is we need to build an economy going forward with all of us, when we all move forward and the payment of a national debt is not the responsibility of one group of Americans versus another. ~ Paul Sadler
Irelands Economy quotes by Paul Sadler
Growth demands investment, and investment demands stability. So the more Obama stirs the pot with his proposals and potential changes, the more he retards exactly the investment he needs to get the economy moving again. ~ Dick Morris
Irelands Economy quotes by Dick Morris
One might have thought that the most significant change in the film industry that would come about with a transition from the communist economy to capitalism would fundamentally concern the sources of funding. ~ Andrzej Wajda
Irelands Economy quotes by Andrzej Wajda
You can argue whether it's right or wrong,' says Halfon about the scrapping of Connexions, 'and yes I believe we should be balancing the economy, but nevertheless the think-tank people never consider how it actually impacts on the front, although they do create an intellectual framework. ~ Owen Jones
Irelands Economy quotes by Owen Jones
It is to be regretted that the rich and powerful too often bend the acts of government to their selfish purposes. Distinctions in society will always exist under every just government. Equality of talents, of education, or of wealth cannot be produced by human institutions. In the full enjoyment of the gifts of Heaven and the fruits of superior industry, economy, and virtue, every man is equally entitled to protection by law; but when the laws undertake to add to these natural and just advantages artificial distinctions, to grant titles, gratuities, and exclusive privileges, to make the rich richer and the potent more powerful, the humble members of society - the farmers, mechanics, and laborers - who have neither the time nor the means of securing like favors to themselves, have a right to complain of the injustice of their Government. ~ Andrew Jackson
Irelands Economy quotes by Andrew Jackson
I rather wish to rest my case on material considerations, not those of the social future but those of the actual historical period of the capitalist world-economy. ~ Immanuel Wallerstein
Irelands Economy quotes by Immanuel Wallerstein
The American university inherits the missions of two very different institutions: the English college and the German research university. The first pattern prevailed before the Civil War. Curricula centered on the classics, and the purpose of education was understood to be the formation of character. With the emergence of a modern industrial society in the last decades of the nineteenth century, that kind of pedagogy was felt to be increasingly obsolete. Johns Hopkins was founded in 1876 as the first American university on the German model: a factory of knowledge that would focus in particular on the natural and social sciences, the disciplines essential to the new economy and the world to which it was giving rise. ~ William Deresiewicz
Irelands Economy quotes by William Deresiewicz
Making the tax cuts permanent will continue to grow the economy, create jobs, and put more money in the pockets of the hard-working families of Pennsylvania. ~ Tim Murphy
