A nation that continues gezegde

 A nation that continues year after year to spend more money on military defense than on programs of social uplift is approaching spiritual death.

 This was a five-year reform (and) we're coming to our fifth year. We haven't used all of our money because we chose not to spend it quickly, but to spend it well and to spend it in full consultation with the people who give us our money.

 A nation or civilization that continues to produce soft-minded men purchases its own spiritual death on an installment plan.

 We've been constantly writing checks. I haven't looked at the balance yet. We have a good deal of money to spend but (team president Matt Silverman 's) job, along with management and myself, is determining how much do we spend today, how much do we spend over a three-year period, how much over a seven-year period, and, most importantly, where is the money deployed.

 You know all that money we spend on the military ever year -- trillions of dollars? Instead, if we use this money to feed and clothe the poor of this world, which it would do many times over, then we can explore space, inner and outer, together, as one race.
  Bill Hicks

 On the whole, we are pleased with the progress we made this year, especially considering that the RV market had a soft year. Our core Spartan Chassis business continues to perform very well with increased sales, profitability and record orders for fire truck chassis for the year. It also benefited from the military contract with Force Protection, Inc. for the Cougar military vehicle.

 We spend $65 million a year for our safety programs and are one of the tops in the nation as far as spending on a safety program.

 Iraq policy cannot be seen as a partisan issue. The costs to our country have been far too great. No part of our nation remains untouched by this war. The military, the economy, social programs, and most important, our families and communities have all suffered because of this war.

 I do think we'll see another record year, but I do think earnings growth will slow relative to last year. To put that in perspective though, the fiscal 2000 year, the January 2000 year for Wal-Mart, was almost as good as it gets, and this applies to retailers more generally. The economy was great; the consumer felt terrific. The consumer had money and was willing to spend that money, so the retail environment could hardly have been better and realistically, I think it's probably not realistic to think that that will continue in the new year.

 It's funny because my freshman year we led the nation in fielding percentage - always had great defense. This year I've seen signs of awesome defense, but it's not consistent. Our team defense isn't up to par yet and I think it has cost us some games.

 We took the test results from TRC Inc. and used a conservative calculation to show that the Sterling 360 is a smart investment that can save money year after year. It assumes that a customer drives a pick-up and delivery truck with a dry van box, travels 20,000 miles a year on average, and pays $2.50 per gallon of diesel fuel. Under these common circumstances, that adds up to a savings of $600 a year or more with the Sterling 360 over competitive models. Imagine where you could spend the extra money every year!

 My goal really was to build what I called one-year seminars, which were spiritual communities that lasted for at least a year. It was really an alternate spiritual family, because the one-year seminars produced lasting friendships that were more intimate than blood ties. The one-year seminar idea is really the most powerful thing that I created.

 Later in the year, the Republicans will be back before this House seeking greater money for defense and broader tax cuts ... and when they do that, they will be seeking money from the Medicare and Social Security trust funds.
  Martin Frost

 We are going to spend about $6 billion more this year than we take in, ... The only reason they can even call that a balanced budget with a straight face is, they're taking borrowed money from last year and spilling it over into this year.

 We've been having a tough time raising money locally because major disasters have impeded our attempts to generate money for our own programs and services. The restaurant program last year raised more than $1,200. This year we're hoping we'll reach $5,000.
