On being an advocate.

Abstract

“A museum with no opportunity to touch is a vacant lot for patrons who happen to be blind.” “The civil rights' and women's movements teach us that we impoverish ourselves when we impoverish others.” “Medicare's view of wages has been based on a simplistic and erroneous model of a labor market, isolated mesas of high wages abruptly dropping to lower wage rural plains.” “Costs can be driven down by a healthcare czar simply limiting what people are allowed to spend; but quality and eficiency can only be achieved by committed and empowered local organizafions and individuals.” “Advocacy is acting out a belief that your vision can be brought to life.”
