Still, I considered it a tremendous injustice that Noll had not been more widely translated and was determined to rectify it.

But to paraphrase Churchill - who said this about democracy and political regimes - a market economy might be the worst economic regime available, apart from the alternatives.

But I also believe that market economies sometimes have market failures, and when these occur, there's a role for prudential - not excessive - regulation of the financial system.

Tshikona "makes sick people feel better and old men throw away their sticks and dance." Tshikona "brings peace to the countryside...."

Not only man puts things in a row, but things belong in a row.

If he is in a society which has work for him I don't think he should theoretically be eligible for welfare.
