“It’s time to ask why [the United States] is the only country in the world where we permit our children to be saddled with tens — sometimes hundreds — of thousands of dollars of debt before they begin to earn a penny.”
F.H. Buckley

“Our schools and universities are like the old Soviet department stores whose mission was to serve the interests of the sales clerks and not the customers.”
F. H. Buckley, The Way Back: Restoring the Promise of America

“Technological change, globalization, genetic advantages, even greed, are to be found everywhere, and can’t explain why we are more immobile than the rest of the First World. What those countries lack, however, is an elite with the clout of America’s New Class. The New Class is apt to think it has earned its privileges through its merits, that America is still the kind of meritocracy that it was in Ragged Dick’s day, where anyone could rise from the very bottom through his talents and efforts. Today’s meritocracy is very different, however.”
F. H. Buckley, The Way Back: Restoring the Promise of America
