Fixing what's wrong with the system is no trickier than preserving the parts that work. But first the country has to understand which is which. Everyone from the libertarian Cato Institute to the American Association of Retired Persons is ready to offer a different answer, but for now all agree that the main thing is to get people thinking about the issue--something the President alone is positioned to do. That Clinton has seized this moment is testament to political instincts and probably no small amount of polling. What he does with this moment will say something about...
Legacy does not offer a definitive answer. Rather, the result is a schizophrenic hybrid of attempts. No artist convincingly emulates Nicks; no artist successfully reworks her material. While this is fodder for lite-radio DJs (You can hear them breathlessly plug the tribute: "Can you believe it's been 25 years since Rumours came out? Let's hear the Goo Goo Dolls rework one of our favourites!"), the ultimate effect of Legacy is to leave us wondering what to do when it hovers closer to desecration than celebration...

Nor would one find a duo of pianistslike Andrew Park '01 and Woo, who "sit there andjust laugh." Park knows the answer to the Harvardquestion, too, as everyone does.

...question-and-answer session Michael Moore gave after the Institute of Politics (IOP) Forum screening of The Big One, he said he thought corporate America was operating with a "get rich quick now" philosophy. Well, Moore is operating with a "get to the moral high ground now" philosophy. Taking the stammerings of front desk receptionists for the authentic response of corporate America, Moore blames big businesses' lack of eloquence on their "indefensible position." But when a Law School student asked Moore whether what he was advocating would lead to Western Europe's inflated economic mess, Moore was only able...
Moore uses a barrage of statistical analyses and interviews with unemployed workers to advance his radically (and unabashedly so) leftist political agenda. Hence, it is not surprising that many students at the screening challenged the politics of Moore's film in the question and answer period. One student asked the filmmaker if he wished America had the same socialist reforms that have led to economic distress in several European nations. Moore answered the question vaguely, stating that America needs more "economic democracy" and that more people needed to earn a "livable wage." The student seemed disappointed with Moore's answer...
