This change to a higher phase of alert is a signal to governments to ministries of health and other ministries to the pharmaceutical industry and the business community that certain actions now should be undertaken with increased urgency and at an accelerated pace.

Health care costs blunt the competitive edge of American entrepreneurs from the auto industry to internet start-ups.

There's definitely evidence that capitalism at its most ruthless rewards psychopathic behavior. When you look at the worst corners of the American health insurance industry or the sub-prime banking market it really feels like the more psychopathically someone behaves the more it's rewarded.

I basically believe the medical insurance industry should be nonprofit not profit-making. There is no way a health reform plan will work when it is implemented by an industry that seeks to return money to shareholders instead of using that money to provide health care.

But you say does it represent change? The change is that we are fighting an insurance industry that has killed health reform for generations. They're spending tens of millions of dollars right now to defeat this bill and we're on the doorstep of winning a great victory for the American people.

Today we have a health insurance industry where the first and foremost goal is to maximize profits for shareholders and CEOs not to cover patients who have fallen ill or to compensate doctors and hospitals for their services. It is an industry that is increasingly concentrated and where Americans are paying more to receive less.

As musicians and artists it's important we have an environment - and I guess when I say environment I really mean the industry that really nurtures these gifts. Oftentimes the machine can overlook the need to take care of the people who produce the sounds that have a lot to do with the health and well-being of society.

Lost wealth may be replaced by industry lost knowledge by study lost health by temperance or medicine but lost time is gone forever.

So many people equate money and success with happiness especially in the music industry.

History shows that our way of life is the stronger way. From it has come more wealth more industry more happiness more human enlightenment than from any other way.

What distinguishes a great artist from a weak one is first their sensibility and tenderness second their imagination and third their industry.

Having a college degree gave me the opportunity to be... well-rounded. Also the people I met at the university most of them are still my colleagues now. People I've known for years are all in the industry together.

I took three years off. I differentiated myself from the industry. Found my identity - sort of... I haven't graduated yet. I'm not legitimately educated yet but maybe one day.

Now I learned soon enough that among the three two don't trust the third one - the third one is the government. Both industry and unions feel the government is a talking organization and a spending organization.

We should not have the U.S. government buying stock in American industries - the financial industry or any other industry.

Our laws governing lobbying and campaign contributions have struck the right balance between the wishes of the people and those of private industry so why are we so quick to doubt that the same great results can be achieved by putting the government's justice-dealing branch on the same market-based course?

The world runs on individuals pursuing their self interests. The great achievements of civilization have not come from government bureaus. Einstein didn't construct his theory under order from a from a bureaucrat. Henry Ford didn't revolutionize the automobile industry that way.

A wise and frugal Government which shall restrain men from injuring one another which shall leave them otherwise free to regulate their own pursuits of industry and improvement and shall not take from the mouth of labor the bread it has earned. This is the sum of good government and this is necessary to close the circlue of our felicities.

Many talk about a guest worker program. I think most reasonable people believe that a guest worker program in the farming industry perhaps in the gardening and landscape industries is reasonable.

A garden is a grand teacher. It teaches patience and careful watchfulness it teaches industry and thrift above all it teaches entire trust.

Advances in technology will continue to reach far into every sector of our economy. Future job and economic growth in industry defense transportation agriculture health care and life sciences is directly related to scientific advancement.

I see a bright future for the biotechnology industry when it follows the path of the computer industry the path that von Neumann failed to foresee becoming small and domesticated rather than big and centralized.

The music industry is really funny when you have a hit record everyone knows who are you everyone wants to do duets with you then if you have a miss people suffer from amnesia.

It's funny how the music industry is enraged about the Internet and the way things are copied without being paid for. But you know why people steal the music? Because they can't afford the music.

In recent years personal injury attorneys and trial lawyers have attacked the food industry with numerous lawsuits alleging that these businesses should pay monetary damages to those who of their own accord consume too much of a legal safe product.

We're going to do everything possible to make sure that food safety is always paramount and that we work with the industry as aggressively as we can to make sure that we're paying attention to the food-safety issues.

The development of the food industry for both domestic and export markets relies on a regulatory framework that both protects the consumer and assures fair trading practices in food.

Perhaps more than any other the food industry is very sensitive to consumer demand.

As a chef I had started working with groups like Share Our Strength and various local food banks in New York raising money for hunger-related issues. And not only me but the entire restaurant industry has been very focused on this issue.

There are probably close to a million people in the hospitality industry here in the United States and there are probably only a few hundred opportunities in the food media industry.
