...obvious draw back; it authorizes a first-year payout of $100,000, but it does not provide the actual cash. Criminals themselves are supposed to supply it through fines levied by judges. But since most criminals are already indigents, where will they get the money? If the plan is to be more than tokenism, odds are that Governor Brown will wind up paying for most of it from his emergency fund...
...Objections. Many union leaders feel that such plans tend to make workers feel like managers and soften labor's punch in collective bargaining (wage hikes and extra benefits, after all, come out of profits). The U.A.W. rank and file was disappointed that last week's American Motors payout was slightly less than last year, and Reuther, in negotiation with the Big Three, may be willing to trade off his profit-sharing demand if he can win shorter hours or higher wages.

Gustafson, "a company has to see an awfully quick payout with about a three-year ceiling"-that is, a return of 337% on invested capital. But in recent years, the average return achieved by U.S.-owned companies in Latin America has dwindled to 9% v. 15% in Europe. Prime reason for this is inflation: Argentina's peso...
...Controls. For all deficient states, estimates C.E.D., the annual federal payout would be about $600 million. To protect the Government, states would get the money only if they boosted their own school spending to the national rate and kept it there. To protect the schools, no federal controls on education "whatsoever" would be allowed-"no federal requirement for 'loyalty oaths,' and no control of subject matter, teaching methods, teacher qualifications, or any other aspects of the educational process...
