Peter Drucker Quotes

Increasingly, politics is not about 'who gets what, when, how' but about values, each of them considered to be absolute. Politics is about 'the right to life'...It is about the environment. It is about gaining equality for groups alleged to be oppressed...None of these issues is economic. All are fundamentally moral.
