Text Quotes
Footballers are an easy target. They are offered big lines of credit. Every sport is vulnerable; it’s such a big gambling industry, and there are problems with syndicates in other countries.  (Countries Quotes) In the Netherlands - where I come from - you actually never see a pig, which is really strange, because, in a population of 16 million people, we have 12 million pigs. And well, of course, the Dutch can’t eat all these pigs. They eat about one-third, and the rest is exported to all kinds of countries in Europe and the rest of the world.  (Countries Quotes) When the economy is still struggling, putting people back to work, finding ways to spur economic activity, ultimately can help to reduce the structural deficits and debts that countries experience.  (Countries Quotes) A large country with such outstanding economic performance as Germany cannot forget that it owes some of its success to demand from other European countries.  (Countries Quotes) If we look at statistical data, we see that Protestant countries in terms of economic development are more successful than those observing Catholicism.  (Countries Quotes) China is the big economic engine in Asia, so what happens is, as China growth expands, these countries in the periphery of China, whether it be Indonesia, Malaysia, Singapore, the Philippines, they end up growing with China because they become big exporters.  (Countries Quotes) As you may know, the Millennium Challenge Corporation, or MCC, awards grants only to countries which rule justly, promote economic freedom, and invest in their people.  (Countries Quotes) We’ve seen over time that countries that have the best economic growth are those that have good governance, and good governance comes from freedom of communication. It comes from ending corruption. It comes from a populace that can go online and say, ‘This politician is corrupt, this administrator, or this public official is corrupt.’  (Countries Quotes) In order to address world economic imbalances, countries around the world should make joint efforts to adjust their economic structure.  (Countries Quotes) Education is the most powerful tool countries have for boosting economic growth, increasing prosperity, and forging more just, peaceful and equitable societies.  (Countries Quotes) It is obvious that the monetary union among 17 very different European countries does not work. As an economist, I know that the Eurozone is not an optimum currency area, as defined in economic theory.  (Countries Quotes) While Argentina, Brazil, and Chile - what in textbooks used to be called the ABC countries - seem settled into democratic politics and free market economics, the Andean countries are in disarray.  (Countries Quotes) Without international participation, jobs and emissions will simply shift overseas to countries that require few, if any, environmental protections, harming the global environment as well as the U.S. economy.  (Countries Quotes) Countries have largely been left alone to handle or ignore their educational problems as they see fit. In part, this was because we assumed that the contexts and challenges were so different from nation to nation that education could not be tackled at the international level.  (Countries Quotes) The primary difference that I have found between the system of education in India and other countries, particularly the U.S., is that they focus on problem solving and relating theories to reality around them. These two things are lacking in the education system in India.  (Countries Quotes) The promotion of human rights remains the most effective strategy for eliminating inequalities between countries and social groups, and for increasing security.  (Countries Quotes) I can’t say enough about the tremendous work the Missouri National Guard has done as part of our military efforts in Afghanistan, Iraq and other countries.  (Countries Quotes) During the Reagan Administration, so much attention was devoted to fighting Marxism in Nicaragua and El Salvador that Washington lost sight of longer-term challenges in other countries.  (Countries Quotes) The US has attacked countries like Grenada, Panama, Libya... the list of victims of US terrorism is almost infinite. And the US government’s participation in torture, whether in El Salvador, Guatemala, Chile... is well-documented and widely known.  (Countries Quotes) Our elected officials would do well to remember that the most prosperous countries are those that allow consumers - not governments - to direct the use of resources. Allowing the government to pick winners and losers hurts almost everyone, especially our poorest citizens.  (Countries Quotes) In some countries that are darlings of the West, like Egypt, everyone knows the result of national elections years in advance: The man in power always wins. In others, like Saudi Arabia, the very idea of an election is unthinkable.  (Countries Quotes) Was it a good idea to spend taxpayer dollars on electric cars in Finland, or on windmills in China? Was it a good idea to borrow all this money from countries like China and spend it on all these various different interest groups?  (Countries Quotes) Electronic communication makes possible what has previously been excluded: namely, active, simultaneous and reciprocal contact between individuals across all frontiers constituted by countries, religions and continents.  (Countries Quotes) The mantra from the Obama State Department is ‘smart power’ - the not-so-new idea that all elements of national power should be utilized to influence other countries.  (Countries Quotes) Destroy or take away the employment and wages of those artisans - which the corn laws in a great measure do - and you will, ere long, render the land in Great Britain of as little value as it is in other countries.  (Countries Quotes) You need companies investing in these countries, so women have employment opportunities, and you also need these forces of conscience. Without the activists, in the United States we would still have child labor, we would still have 16-hour days.  (Countries Quotes) Africa is not for the weak-hearted: infrastructure issues are there. The middle class is absent in most of the countries. We have to cater to the low end of the market to grow.  (Countries Quotes) I found it marvelous that the great supporters of America in Europe are, of course, those countries that American consistency and firmness in the Cold War ended up liberating.  (Countries Quotes) Authorize the exploration of proven energy reserves to reduce our dependence on foreign energy sources from unstable countries and reduce regulatory barriers.  (Countries Quotes) Move beyond the educated elite, and the great majority in most countries outside Europe don’t speak English.  (Countries Quotes)
