Entry: Is Europe Waking Up? Link: http://www.takimag.com/site/article/europes_suicide_the_turning_point#3810 Post contents: Nucci sed: "You are exactly right that capitalism loves multi-culturalism. Let’s all sing It’s a Small World After All." Hilarious. Tom Friedman's "flat world" reduced to the simple idiocy of a Disneyland ditty. I've got to remember that one. Nucci sed: "The reason you see the Catholic Church attacked so vehemently in the press is because the Church in it’s teachings is opposed to both Communism(subvervience to the state), and to Capitalism(subservience to material wealth). In the church your main loyalties are to God and family, then friends, the poor and somewhere bringing up the rear are the state and material goods." Exactly. I agree completely. The enemy of good order is unrestrained finance capitalism. Recall Max Weber analysis of REAL capitalism, it was based on European CHRISTIAN middle class social values. The sort of Capitalism" we have now---so-called (but not really) libertarian "laissez faire capitalism" is travesty and a lie. The idea that the only value society needs in the world is self interest and the guiding principle is profit? As far as I'm concerned, this sort of economic determinism is the essense of communism, but the idiots who call themselves "libertarians" are too full of the "virtue of selfishness" to even realize it.
