Winona LaDukeSocial Security should be phased out and ended altogether. ... Social Security in any form is morally irredeemable. We should be debating, not how to save Social Security, but how to end it - how to phase it out so as to best protect both the rights of those who have paid into it, and those who are forced to pay for it today. This will be a painful task. But it will make possible a world in which Americans enjoy far greater freedom to secure their own futures.
Alex EpsteinI am 100 percent confident. This is a security review that was requested. It is being carried out. It will be resolved.

Mitt RomneyMy favorite term for a new kind of performance is "security theater." In this genre, we watch as ritualized inspections and patdowns create the illusion of security.

Ezra Taft BensonI have to say, the Campus Crusade tactic struck me as disingenuous.

Kevin RooseDon't worry. Don't apologize. Don't cower behind the defeated security of there is no 'room for someone like me'. There isn't room for any one of us. It's up to you to make a place for yourself in the world. So get to work.
