George M. Humphrey quotes about
economy significant recessions
I don't see any significant recession or depression in the offing.
eggs golden consumers
The goose lays the golden egg. Payrolls make consumers.
war thinking incentives
I think things that contribute to the destruction of our free-incentive system are wrong. A trend against that free-incentive system is wrong, and should only be temporarily engaged in, in the event that war or something of that kind requires it. Otherwise, it should be reduced.
