We must promote upward mobility, starting with solutions that speak to our broken education system, broken immigration policy, and broken safety-net programs that foster dependency instead of helping people get back on their feet Picture Quote #1

I’ve always had this interest in sibling relationships because I don’t have any siblings.

The west has a great deal to answer for in the Middle East, from Britain’s belated empire-building after the First World War to the US and British policy that condemns modern Iraq to the material and social squalor of a half-century ago Picture Quote #1

After spending the 1980s building up Saddam’s Iraq as a counterweight to Iran, U.S. policy abruptly reversed course with his invasion of Kuwait and has since tried to cut him down to size. The policy is called ‘containment,’ but the question is, containment of what? Picture Quote #1

Obama’s entire foreign policy was predicated on the notion that by existing, he would bridge all gaps and bury all hatchets.

I really think [the Bush Administration]’s foreign policy agenda is to spread irony through the world Picture Quote #1

There the Bush Administration has offered only a merry-go-round policy. They got up on their high horse, whooped and hollered, rode around in circles and ended right back where they’d started Picture Quote #1

I think the Bush Administration had basically inherited a policy toward Iraq from the Reagan/Bush Administration that saw Iraq as a kind of fire wall against Iranian fundamentalism. And as it developed over the 1980s, it became a real political run-a-muck... even though the Iraqis were known to be harboring Palestinian terrorists Picture Quote #1

I find it greatly disturbing that the Bush administration has used political and religious ideologies to influence national policy on science and medicine Picture Quote #1

When you see government leaders really bullying business, you know that government’s economic policy is failing. They get angry and they get desperate Picture Quote #1

You either deny terrorists any acceptance in the international life, or you make your double standard policy work the way it has been working - ‘I don’t like that guy in this country, so we will be calling him a dictator and topple him.

At its worst, Washington is a place where name-calling partisan politics too often trumps policy Picture Quote #1

Trusting your energy policy to the fossil fuel lobby is like trusting your health care system to the tobacco lobby Picture Quote #1

Nowadays, a minister of health cannot consider his or her job done simply by looking at the health care system. It’s not enough to have a health policy, you need healthy policies elsewhere Picture Quote #1

For a small open economy that trades mostly with the euro zone it makes absolute sense to be part of the currency union. Our currency has already pegged to the euro since 2002.

Our businesses want to save the transaction costs Picture Quote #1
