QOTD: "We hear an awful lot about heartless predatory corporations, but corrupt urban machines prey more viciously on the poor than does any corporation. Kids have been defrauded of education, pensioners are now looking at insecurity and cutbacks in their retirement years, homeowners have been ruined by failures of governance, and businesses have been destroyed—by failures of governance, by bureaucratic ineptitude, and by systemic corruption.

There are cities in this country where party organizations have become indistinguishable from criminal enterprises. Some smart lawyers could do a lot of good by ripping the curtain of denial aside. If Teddy Roosevelt were around today, this is the kind of issue the Bull Moose would be charging head on." --Walter Russell Mead
