I think there's a lot of work to be done with our societies. My biggest passions are the environment and health. And when I say 'health' I mean the secrets behind health and our food system.
The gradual decline of a society is often a self-induced process of trying to meet ever-expanding appetites, rather than a physical inability to produce past levels of food and fuel, or to maintain adequate defense.
I think this society suffers so much from too much freedom, too many rights that allow people to be irresponsible.
Men must stop being jealous of their power and generously allow freedom and responsibility to others. The reward is harmonious families and society.
Remove advertising, disable a person or firm from proclaiming its wares and their merits, and the whole of society and of the economy is transformed. The enemies of advertising are the enemies of freedom.
If you ask me to summarise our mission, I would put it this way: We were a military regime that sought to lay the foundations for freedom and liberty in a complex society.

The question of the family now divides our society so deeply that the opposing sides cannot even agree on a definition of the institution they are arguing about.
We know the pain the president has caused our society and his family and his friends, but we know, too, how much the president has done for this country.
Without a positive male role model in your life, it is extremely difficult to become a man who benefits his family and benefits society.
I come from that society and there is a common thread, specifically family values - the idea that you do anything for your family, and the unconditional love for one's children.
