Problems have solutions.
I happen to agree with the anti-dictatorship policies, but I don't think it's the role of General Electric to support them or oppose them. They do of course, but I don't agree with that.
We shouldn't be looking for heroes, we should be looking for good ideas.

Students who acquire large debts putting themselves through school are unlikely to think about changing society. When you trap people in a system of debt, they can't afford the time to think.

Not try to create more racial categories, because all that does is it makes a race stick around longer.
I think there's no purpose for writing music if it is not meaningful.
I have my goals, I have some things I want to achieve next basketball season individually. But the number one thing is always winning games. If you win games then everything else will take care of itself. You know nobody wants to see you guys score 30 and then lose every game.
It looks to me like the candidates are trying to relieve the farmer of his vote, instead of his debts.
