Money thrown out for consumers to spend!
I hope the is another stimulus check i still have my first one and i know where there is a 40 foot motor home for sale for $800 dollars that i want.
I can save little on my disability check and having a motor home to live in would be cheaper then i have now.
Put some solar panels on it and i could move to Slab City Calif and live rent free in the winter and travel to a small mining town that i was a vol firefighter/EMT in the summer and park there rent free.
I can't find any reference to a "Government Reorganization Act". Does anyone have the actual text of the Act?
As far as Executive Order 11647 goes; it was revoked in 1979 by Carter with E.O. 12149.
The Center for the Study of Democratic Institutions in Santa Barbara, California was an important liberal think tank from 1959 to 1969, declining in influence thereafter. It was considered to be part of the New Left.[citation needed]
It was founded in 1959 by Robert M. Hutchins.
Fellows of the Center included: Stringfellow Barr, from 1959 to 1969; education philosopher Frederick Mayer ("A History of Educational Thought"); Linus Pauling, from 1963 to 1967; Bishop James A. Pike, from 1966 to 1969; Robert Kurt Woetzel; and Harvey Wheeler.
In 1969 Hutchins reorganized the Center. Many associates departed. New appointees included, among others, Alexander Comfort, later to attain fame as the author of The Joy of Sex; Bertrand de Jouvenel; and Stanford biologist Paul R. Ehrlich, author of The Population Bomb.
Harry Ashmore was its president from 1969 to 1974.
After Hutchins' death in 1977, the Center found it difficult to raise funds. It became affiliated with the University of California at Santa Barbara, which sold its real estate. The Center absorbed the Fund for the Republic, a civil rights and civil liberties foundation, in 1979.
The Center closed in 1987.
Our universities have become "high-class flophouses where parents send their children to keep them off the labor market and out of their own hair." (1954, qtd. in Martin Gardner, The Night is Large)
# "A world community can only exist with world communication, which means something more than extensive shortwave facilities scattered about the globe. It means common understanding, a common tradition, common ideas and common ideals."-Hutchins
# If the GI Bill is passed, "colleges and universities will find themselves converted into educational hobo jungles."
# "The death of democracy is not likely to be an assassination from ambush. It will be a slow extinction from apathy, indifference, and undernourishment."-Hutchins
