“The question we must all ask ourselves is how Mr. Benn was able to come within striking distance of the very heart of our economic life in the first place...an important part of the answer must be that our industry, economic life and society have been so debilitated by 30 years of Socialistic fashions that their very weakness tempts further inroads. The path to Benn is paved with 30 years of interventions: 30 years of good intentions: 30 years of disappointments. These have led the collectivists to say that we are failing only because we are taking half measures. The reality is that for 30 years the private sector of our economy has been forced to work with one hand tied behind its back by government and unions. Socialist measures and Socialist legacies have weakened free enterprise.”

“We live in a society that is based on 30-second sound bites. We havetechnology that puts all of the information of humankind at our fingertips,but we have the attention span of a three-year-old at a carnivalmidway on the Fourth of July. We throw around a lot of words likedemocracy, federal, republic, nationalist, socialist, liberal, and right-wing—butdo we really know what they mean?”

“We worked 80 hour weeks for 30 years to keep from having to get a real job.”

“You don't lose a partner you've been with for 30-odd years and just wake up one day with a smile.”

“The man who views the world at 50 the same as he did at 20 has wasted 30 years of his life.”

“If you're wondering why our children are so stupid now a days look no further than the American educational system. Designed to lower our standards and minds. Keeping kids dumb for over 30 years and counting.”
