When the student aid supporters say two parallel bureaucracies would be wasteful, the tax credit backers answer that leaving the job to one bureaucracy is worse--considering that bureaucracy is the Department of Health, Education and Welfare (HEW). Roth's aides cite the Guaranteed Student Loan Program as an example of a bureaucracy at its worse. Calling the program "the worst administered program in the government," one aide says that one in every six loans granted under the program now stands in default, and 316 people who have defaulted on their loans work within HEW itself. The aide also says...
...victims of Communist coups. Social democrats can justly answer back that the "true socialists" of Moscow are dictators who have betrayed Marxism's humanistic vision. Alone or in coalitions, social-democratic leaders control the governments of Britain, West Germany, Austria, Belgium, Denmark, Finland, Luxembourg, Norway, The Netherlands, Portugal?to cite only European examples. (Sweden's Social Democrats, after 44 years in power, were defeated in 1976 by a narrow margin.) Social democracy accepts a multiparty political system and believes in gradual, peaceful means of reaching its socialist goals. In practical terms, this has meant that social democrats have concentrated more...
Finally, the plan would encourage decentralization by permitting more decision making at the regional or agency level. Wayne Granquist, an official in the Office of Management and Budget who helped devise the plan, likes to cite the example of the forest ranger who is sent into the woods of Oregon for a wildlife census. Since he is in what is called a remote area, he is entitled to an extra $12 a week. But this modest increase in pay must be approved all the way up the line from district to regional to national headquarters of the U.S. Forest Service...
...equally unsparing of Pasternak's wife Zinaida, who died in 1966. But she does cite some of Pasternak's letters to third parties that are full of praise for Zinaida: "I owe my life to her," the writer declared after a long illness. At times, Ivinskaya tends to confuse art and life. She often asserts that particular lines in Pasternak's work refer specifically to her. In his overwhelmingly expressive portrait of Lara, Pasternak offered no other physical description of his heroine than a mention of "strong, white, woman's arms." Ivinskaya would have been well...
Another argument is that "the status quo is adequate." If it were, how could I cite so many obvious problems that students are powerless to address without a central voice? Why, even at schools with decision-making based on a student-faculty committee system, would there still exist an umbrella organization to maintain student unity and provide student services? One thing is certain: a student association will not make things any worse...
