That effort to undermine competitive markets is no better in the market for labor than it is for goods and services Picture Quote #1

Finding a ‘sacrificial lamb’ on whom to tag blame for complicated problems is an important instrument in the toolkit of politicians, because it deflects blame for the nation’s economic woes away from their own regulatory lapses, economic mismanagement and coddling to labor unions Picture Quote #1

Marx.... Lenin.... Mao Tse-Tung.... These men were animated by the love of brother and this we must believe though their ends meant the seizure of power, and the building of mighty armies, the compulsion of concentration camps, the forced labor and torture and killing of tens of thousands, even millions Picture Quote #1

Most of cooking is the labor of chopping. Give yourself a break. Pretend you’re on a cooking show and have all your ingredients lined up for you Picture Quote #1

Since the 1920s, when some U.S. cruise ships decided to fly a Panamanian flag to avoid Prohibition regulations, ships have commonly flown the flag of countries foreign to their owners. The benefits are obvious: lower taxes, laxer labor and safety laws Picture Quote #1

The entire so-called history of the world is nothing but the creation of man through human labor Picture Quote #1

To me, creative work is labor, like any other kind of labor. It’s got value, and it takes your time, and it’s useful to people, depending Picture Quote #1

The current information revolution is a cultural revolution, a social revolution, a thoroughgoing technological revolution that involves not just information, but labor, leisure, entertainment, communication, education, culture and thus is part of a major cultural and social shift Picture Quote #1

Labor Day 2013 is special. This year marks the centennial of the U.S. Department of Labor - 100 years of working for America’s workers Picture Quote #1

Economic activity (production, research, design, etc.) moved to any accessible country or region that had relatively inexpensive labor and human capital Picture Quote #1

The labor movement was the principal force that transformed misery and despair into hope and progress Picture Quote #1

There is, in our nature, a disposition to indulgence, a secret desire to escape from labor, which, unless hourly combated, will overcome and destroy the best faculties of our minds and paralyze our most useful powers Picture Quote #1

I am a model of positivity compared to the kinds of vitriol, the kinds of destructive criticisms that Labor members of parliament have been making of each other Picture Quote #1
