Aging Quotes
Modern medicine has presented us with a Faustian bargain: Our aging bodies can bankrupt our children and grandchildren. We have run into the 'law of diminishing returns' in health care, where we are often doing more and more, with higher and higher technology, at more and more cost, for less and less benefit.

Best Quotes
Economists specialize in pointing out unpleasant trade-offs - a skill that is on full display in the health care debate. We want patients to receive the best care available. We also want consumers to pay less. And we don't want to bankrupt the government or private insurers. Something must give.

Affordable Quotes
People aren't going to go bankrupt anymore if they have a serious illness, which was a serious issue here in the country before the Affordable Care Act. And, in fact, the expense of expanding health care for those who need the subsidy is picked up by the federal government for most of the early years.

Compel Quotes
It was always foolhardy for Republicans and conservatives to stake their objections to Obamacare on the number of sign-ups; Social Security is going bankrupt despite 100% enrollment. The reality is that Obama was always destined to hit his required numbers because, after all, he has the power of government to compel action.

Airline Quotes
Just as unrealistic union demands have helped bankrupt auto, steel, and airline companies, so this legislation could have a similar impact on the retail industry. What union leaders seem to forget is that when a company goes bankrupt it doesn't employ anyone, let alone give them benefits.

Banking Quotes
With the financials, that entire space has been tarnished by a confidence crisis.

The concerns remain about the banks' exposure to bankrupt telecoms WorldCom and Global Crossing,

Baby Quotes
The real threat to Social Security doesn't come from giving young people this opportunity. The threat comes from the Bush Administration's plan to load illegal aliens into the Social Security system, an idea that would skyrocket costs and bankrupt the system at the same time that baby boomers flood into their benefit years.

Company Quotes
It was actually in retrospect a pretty meek story. It didn't say that the company is a fraud and going to go bankrupt in nine months. In fact, if you had said to me at the time that Enron is going to go under, I'd have said, 'Are you kidding?' It just didn't quite make sense. In retrospect I fault myself for not questioning it more than I did.

Days Quotes
In the 1970s in New York, everyone slept till noon. It was a grungy, dangerous, bankrupt city without normal services most of the time. The garbage piled up and stank during long strikes by the sanitation workers. A major blackout led to days and days of looting. The city seemed either frightening or risible to the rest of the nation.

Agency Quotes
The Fisheries Agency of Japan, the ICR and the whaling fleet are out of control. The hunt is bankrupt on all counts: scientifically, ecologically, morally and financially. With the market for whale meet in Japan collapsing and stock piles rising, it is clear that the whaling business is bad. Over the coming months we will be calling on consumers world-wide to join us in telling the companies that whaling is bad for business. Not everyone can join us on the high seas to defend the whales but they can join us on the high streets.
