• ¿Se ha dado cuenta alguna vez de cómo los estatistas "reforman" constantemente su propia obra? Reforma de la educación. La reforma de la sanidad. La reforma de la asistencia social. La reforma fiscal. El mero hecho de que siempre estén ocupados "reformando" es una admisión implícita de que no lo hicieron bien las primeras 50 veces.

• Bill Clinton gives the appearance of taking stands-for some sort of tax cut, some sort of welfare reform, some sort of balanced budget-but these are ploys, mirages: they exist only to undermine positions taken by the Republicans. He doesn't fight for anything substantive-except of course, re-election. ...He has fallen into the dangerous habit of lip synching the presidency: he gives the appearance of leadership, but not the substance.

• The most important domestic challenge facing the U.S. at the close of the twentieth century is the re-creation of fatherhood as avital social role for men. At stake is nothing less than the success of the American experiment. For unless we reverse the trend of fatherlessness, no other set of accomplishments--not economic growth or prison construction or welfare reform or better schools--will succeed in arresting the decline of child well-being and the spread of male violence. To tolerate the trend of fatherlessness is to accept the inevitability of continued social recession.

Welfare reforms, by their very nature, can only serve to retard the pace at which animal rights goals are achieved.

• I'm convinced that welfare reforms deserve our support, both because they are better (or at least much less bad) for the animals involved (the Golden Rule), and because they push the envelope, moving us closer to the compassionate world that all animal rights activists are working toward...On the other hand, working toward welfare reforms has the immediate benefit of helping improve animals' lives today and acts as a crucial stepping stone toward animal liberation.

• Cuando algunos gobernadores republicanos pidieron probar nuevas formas de volver a poner a trabajar a las personas que recibían asistencia social, la Administración Obama dijo que sólo lo harían si tenían un plan creíble para aumentar el empleo en un 20%. ¿Oyes eso? Más trabajo. Así que la afirmación de que el presidente Obama debilitó el requisito de trabajo de la reforma de la asistencia social no es cierta.
