Sad But Amusing

Sad but amusing, by way of the Cato Institute’s “Cato Policy Report”:

In my State of the City Address, I said that in order to be a GREAT city — THIS city needs to excel in three areas: Education, Public Safety and Jobs.This downtown Phoenix Campus of ASU is the catalyst for the first — and the foundation for the other two. Because without education, there are not many jobs. And without education their is a lot more crime.

-“Mayor’s Message” from Phoenix Mayor Phil Gordon, April 21, 2005

I confess, however, that while typing the above I misspelled “education” twice.



The National Center for Public Policy Research is a communications and research foundation supportive of a strong national defense and dedicated to providing free market solutions to today’s public policy problems. We believe that the principles of a free market, individual liberty and personal responsibility provide the greatest hope for meeting the challenges facing America in the 21st century.
