And punishing wrongdoing can have a strong ripple effect that deters others from going down the wrong path.

en Government spending in the year to September increased by a thousand percent. When you spend a thousand percent, you will likely get the same amount in inflation. The real economy in this country shrunk even by the government's own admission by 45 percent in the last five years. That means, government should have shrunk by 45 percent. Government has not shrunk by 45 percent. The formal economy is producing much less tax revenue, in order for it to pay its civil servants. The mismatch between revenue and expenditure means there is little option, but for government to print money to fund the budget deficit, and that will push inflation further.

  Theodore Roosevelt

en We don't ask for the approval from the government to print things. But by the same token, we do want to know if there's something that would hurt someone [if we disclose certain information] -- and what it is. Then we make very careful decisions and talk about it with dozens of people [including their editors and top government officials] before the actual story runs. It could conceivably be too sensitive: say, if you find out -- through one means or another -- that somebody had a spy by a certain name in a foreign government and that person would be immediately killed if it were revealed.

en The government is purposefully delaying finding a solution to our issues. We want to resolve the issue through peaceful means, but the government is provoking us using all sort of methods.
