Liberty Quotes


"The government consists of a gang of men exactly like you and me. They have, taking one with another, no special talent for the business of government; they have only a talent for getting and holding office. Their principal device to that end is to search out groups who pant and pine for something they can't get and to promise to give it to them. Nine times out of ten that promise is worth nothing. The tenth time is made good by looting A to satisfy B. In other words, government is a broker in pillage, and every election is sort of an advance auction sale of stolen goods." -- H. L. Mencken (1880-1956) American Journalist, Editor, Essayist, Linguist, Lexicographer, and Critic

"A person's right to a job is as specious as his boss' right to success in business. There is no right to a minimum wage, just as there is no right to success in self-employment." -- Rex Curry Source: letter to the Washington Times National Weekly Edition, May 5, 1996

"[W]hensoever the general government assumes undelegated powers, its acts are unauthoritative, void, and of no force." -- Thomas Jefferson (1743-1826), US Founding Father, drafted the Declaration of Independence, 3rd US President Source: Kentucky Resolves

American Minute with Bill Federer August 26 - "Women can vote!" 19th Amendment



American Minute with Bill Federer
August 26 - "Women can vote!" 19th Amendment

"Women can vote" was the news AUGUST 26, 1920, with the passage of the 19th Amendment:

"The right of citizens of the U.S. to vote shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or by any State on account of sex."



In the 1800's, Sweden, Britain, Finland, New Zealand, South Australia, and some western U.S. Territories extended voting rights to women.



In countries adhering to Sharia Law, such as Saudi Arabia, United Arab Emirates, Brunei, etc., women's right to vote is still denied or limited.



President Gerald Ford stated February 13, 1976:

"Susan B. Anthony...with other dedicated women...took the cause of women's suffrage to State capitals across our growing Nation...

The irreversible change she wrought...led to the ratification of the Nineteenth Amendment."



Also fighting for prohibition of alcohol, Susan B. Anthony spoke at a Daughters of Temperance dinner, March 1, 1849:

"Ladies! There is no Neutral position for us...If we sustain not this noble enterprise...then is our influence on the side of Intemperance.

If we say we love the Cause and then sit down at our ease, surely does our action speak the lie.

And now permit me once more to beg of you to lend your aid to this great Cause, the Cause of God and all Mankind."



President Richard Nixon remarked at the 50th Anniversary of the League of Women Voters, April 17, 1969:

"A year before the 19th amendment was adopted the League of Women Voters was founded, and that organization, in the past 50 years, has played a major role in this Nation on a nonpartisan basis...

Last night I spoke to 4,000 Republican women who were here in Washington, D.C....Since about 1947, a tremendously escalating role of women in politics in the United States...

I often say that men do the talking and women do the working in campaigns..."



Nixon continued:

"Then, of course, as we look at the past 50 years we wonder what could happen in the next 50 years...

As I look around the world and as I find that India has a woman Prime Minister, Ceylon has a woman Prime Minister, Israel has a woman Prime Minister, certainly in the next 50 years we shall see a woman President--maybe sooner than you think...

The problem of holding down the cost of living and taxes, that is not a partisan issue...You approach the problems - not on the basis of partisanship, but on the basis of the facts."



Another women's suffrage leader was Julia Ward Howe, author of The Battle Hymn of the Republic, who wrote in the 3rd verse:

"I have read a fiery gospel writ in burnished rows of steel;

'As ye deal with my contemners, so with you my grace shall deal;

LET THE HERO, BORN OF WOMAN, crush the serpent with his heel,

Since God is marching on."

Liberty Quotes


"Sometimes the law defends plunder and participates in it. Sometimes the law places the whole apparatus of judges, police, prisons and gendarmes at the service of the plunderers, and treats the victim -- when he defends himself -- as a criminal." -- Frederic Bastiat (1801-1850) [Claude Frederic Bastiat] French economist, statesman, and author. He did most of his writing during the years just before -- and immediately following -- the French Revolution of February 1848 Source: The Law
http://quotes.liberty-tree.ca/quote_blog/Frederic.Bastiat.Quote.6B82

"No duty, however, binds us to these so-called laws, whose corrupting influence menaces what is noblest in our being..." -- Benjamin Constant [Henri-Benjamin Constant de Rebecque] (1767-1830) Swiss-born thinker, writer and French politician. Source: Principles of Politics Applicable to All Governments (1810) (Indianapolis: Liberty Fund, 2003), p. 401-402.
http://quotes.liberty-tree.ca/quote_blog/Benjamin.Constant.Quote.5EEE

"[G]overnment theft of private money and redistribution by a government elite is communism not democracy. ... Communism has already been tried for over 70 years, and it doesn't work because people work to support themselves, not their neighbors. When the rewards are confiscated and redistributed to others, people produce less or stop producing altogether. The quantity of "goods in common" declines until the system finally collapses and everybody is hungry, not just "the poor." Then totalitarianism steps in to force people to produce (ask the Russians, the Poles, the Estonians)." -- Don Hull Source: The UnReported News, August 27, 1995

Founders Quote

Founder's Quote Daily

"The ordaining of laws in favor of one part of the nation, to the prejudice and oppression of another, is certainly the most erroneous and mistaken policy. An equal dispensation of protection, rights, privileges, and advantages, is what every part is entitled to, and ought to enjoy." --Benjamin Franklin, Emblematical Representations, 1774

Child Trends- What Works for Disadvantaged and Adolescent Parent Programs

What Works for Disadvantaged and Adolescent Parent Programs: Lessons from Experimental Evaluations of Social Programs and Interventions for Children 

A significant body of research documents the poorer outcomes of teen and non-marital parenthood for both children and parents, and recent statistics underscore the strong association between single parenthood and childhood poverty. Child Trends' latest Fact Sheet, What Works for Disadvantaged and Adolescent Parent Programs: Lessons from Experimental Evaluations of Social Programs and Interventions for Children, reviews 20 parenting programs that are geared toward enhancing the parent's development and/or educating disadvantaged and teenage mothers on effective parenting methods.  

Each program was evaluated in a random-assignment study. Of the 11 programs that measured child outcomes, eight found at least one positive impact on a child outcome area. Four of those eight programs focused on providing parenting education during the prenatal period. Of the 19 programs that measured parent outcomes, ten found at least one positive impact on a parent outcome. Of these ten successful programs, seven used a home-visiting model.

Read the new Fact Sheet.
