Treasury would also make deductible only those medical expenses that exceed 10% of an individual's income, v. 3% now-an idea that is sure to touch off howls of anger. Further, banks would have to withhold in taxes 20% of the interest paid to savers. At present, say Treasury officials, the Government loses $1.4 billion in taxes each year because taxpayers do not report interest...
...scribes wrote. And the city that once loved its athletes and praised its winners, now called its only winners "hostile," and "troubled," and "overpaid." It was a dark turn of events for the once great empire of York, and rich King George was the target of most of the anger. But still he could look out at the people and say, "I have brought you winners. Remember their tasks on the field, and let their lives off the field be private.

In any case, there is an unsettling symmetry about these two Carters: a President who forever asks the "decent, honorable, pristine" American people...
...South African prison five weeks ago of Stephen Biko, a prominent leader of the anti-apartheid "Black Consciousness Movement" among South African blacks in the past decade, has justly provoked an international furor. But the Biko case must not serve simply as a short-lived cathartic outlet for anger and moral outrage. Rather, it should be seen as just the latest and most visible reminder of the larger pattern of ongoing government repression in South Africa--a pattern that has grown increasingly pervasive and brutal since the outbreak of anti-apartheid demonstrations in South Africa's segregated black townships...
