Quotes from Solutionists:

“The good news is that there is a formula for getting out of poverty today.  The magical steps begin with finishing high school, but finishing college is much better.  Step number two is taking job and holding it.  Step number three is marrying after finishing school and while you have a job.  And the final step to give yourself a best chance to avoid poverty is to have children only after you are twenty one and married. This formula applies to black people and white people alike.”

Juan Williams: Enough, 2006 page 215

“How much better would it have been to march a million black men into the ghetto?”          -- Overheard at the million man march –

 “In Germany, they came first for the Communists,

And I didn’t speak up because I wasn’t a Communist;

And then they came for the trade unionists,

And I didn’t speak up because I wasn’t a trade unionist;

And then they came for the Jews,

And I didn’t speak up because I wasn’t a Jew;

And then . . . they came for me . . .

And by that time there was no one left to speak up."

Pastor Martin Niemöller (1892–1984)
