More From Richard Lamm

We are entering a hyperconnected world where every boss now has more access, cheap access to cheap labor, cheap genius, cheap robot, cheap software, and then this world averages over. there is only one answer to that, and that is to get everyone as close as possible to some form of post-secondary education, it could be vocational, it can be liberal arts, it can be science and technology.
Art Technology Average
Labor, being itself a commodity, is measured as such by the labor time needed to produce the labor-commodity. and what is needed to produce this labor-commodity? just enough labor time to produce the objects indispensable to the constant maintenance of labor, that is, to keep the worker alive and in a condition to propagate his race. the natural price of labor is no other than the wage minimum.
Race Maintenance Alive
I do not prize the word cheap. it is not a word of inspiration. it is the badge of poverty, the signal of distress. cheap merchandise means cheap men and cheap men mean a cheap country.

Many men who do creditable things refuse to let it be known. this is a mistake. while we all admire modesty, nevertheless there is a great national need to do everything possible to bring home to the rank and file of the people that all employers and all wealthy men are not grinding, mercenary, selfish skinflints, but that many of them take delight in doing helpful things for others ... shortcomings of employers are constantly paraded. why not let the public become acquainted with the better side which most present-day employers possess?

It was like the classic scene in the movies where one lover is on the train and one is on the platform and the train starts to pull away, and the lover on the platform begins to trot along and then jog and then sprint and then gives up altogether as the train speeds irrevocably off. except in this case i was all the parts: i was the lover on the platform, i was the lover on the train. and i was also the train.
Giving Up Lovers Classic
I cannot always sympathize with that demand which we hear so frequently for cheap things. things may be too cheap. they are too cheap when the man or woman who produces them upon the farm or the man or woman who produces them in the factory does not get out of them living wages with a margin for old age and for a dowry for the incidents that are to follow. i pity the man who wants a coat so cheap that the man or woman who produces the cloth or shapes it into a garment will starve in the process.
