"...Nor did matters necessarily improve with the rise in the 14th century and later of foundling hospitals. In such institutions, over-crowding, disease, poor hygiene, and general neglect led to a mortality rate as high as 90%." --- William John Bennett 2001, 2002 _The Broken Hearth: Reversing the Moral Collapse of the American Family_ pg57

"Thus the Underwood-Simmons Tariff Act included a progressive income tax, targeted at the rich. Separately, responding to unease after the economic crisis, the Wilsonian Democrats created the Federal Reserve System &, the following year, reformed the Sherman Act to stiffen antitrust laws, while creating a Federal Trade Board to regulate interstate business except for railroads." --- John H. Makin & Norman J. Ornstein 1994 _Debt & Taxes_ pg 82

"Those once receiving [aid] apply again when proper effort might have saved them from such a resort... With those who have once received it the 2nd lapse is easier than the 1st, & with those not yet recipients, the spectacle of others receiving it, who are in the same or not substantially different circumstances, is a tempting one." --- Edward L. Pierce 1872-01 "Experience of the Over-Seers of the Poor, collated & Reviewed" _8th Annual Report of the MA Board of State Charities_ pp 41-53 (quoted in Marvin Olasky 1992 _The Tragedy of American Compassion_ pg 63)

"From 1911 to 1925 gov'tal out-door relief payments in 16 of the largest cities increased from $1.6M to $14.7M. Evidence of the change was also evident in smaller cities across the country, including KC, Denver, Dallas, & Grand Rapids. And it was a statewide phenomena [sic] in most areas; the Indiana State Board of Charities reported an increase in out-door relief from $266K in 1910 to $841K in 1925. Private agencies also stepped up their soup kitchen efforts even though there was no evident increase in need. In New Haven, as gov'tal out-door relief expenditures increased from $16K in 1910 to $112K in 1925, the city's private charities marched right alongside, increasing their expenditures from $50K to $178K (in constant 1913 dollars)... So strong was the drive for gov'tal action that a federal Department of Public Welfare almost came into existence in 1921." --- Marvin Olasky 1992 _The Tragedy of American Compassion_ pg 142 (citing Ann Geddes 1937 _Trends in Relief Expenditures 1910-1935_ pg 99, Willford I. King 1928 _Trends in Philanthropy_ pg 68)

"The so-called curtain walls of our high-rise buildings consist of thin, vertical metal struts or mullions, which encase the large glass panels constituting most of the wall surface. The curtain wall, built for lighting and temperature-conditioning purposes, does not have the strength to stand by itself and is supported by a frame of steel or concrete, which constitutes the structure of the building." --- Mario Salvadori, Saralinda Hooker & Christopher Ragus 1980, 1990 _Why Buildings Stand Up: The Strength of Architecture_ pg22
