“We have grown addicted to our high salaries, and now we are really going to have to earn them,” the CEO said.”
Thomas L. Friedman, The World is Flat: A Brief History of the Twenty-First Century

Sam Harris
“We are being offered a psychopathic and psychotic moral attitude… it is psychopathic because this is a total detachment from the, from the well-being of human beings. It, this so easily rationalizes the slaughter of children. Ok, just think about the Muslims at this moment who are blowing themselves up, convinced that they are agents of God’s will. There is absolutely nothing that Dr. Craig can s—can say against their behavior, in moral terms, apart from his own faith-based claim that they’re praying to the wrong God.

There is just a job, and in more cases than ever before it will go to the best, smartest, most productive, or cheapest worker—wherever he or she resides.”
Thomas L. Friedman, The World is Flat: A Brief History of the Twenty-First Century
