Welfare Theorem

Famous quotes containing the words welfare and/or theorem:

“Whether in the field of health, education or welfare, I have put my emphasis on preventive rather than curative programs and tried to influence our elaborate, costly and ill- co-ordinated welfare organizations in that direction. Unfortunately the momentum of social work is still directed toward compensating the victims of our society for its injustices rather than eliminating those injustices.”
—Agnes E. Meyer (1887–1970)

“To insure the adoration of a theorem for any length of time, faith is not enough, a police force is needed as well.”
