Seven and Counting
Catholic Exchange ^ | 08/04/05 | Mary Kochan

As the baby boomers die off they will be transferring to the next generation an unprecedented amount of money and material goods, everything from houses, land, stocks, and ownership of businesses to jewelry, vintage autos, art collections, garden tools and pots and pans. You really can’t take it with you, as the saying goes, but never have so many not taken with them so much. Into whose hands will this massive wealth fall?

The majority of it will probably go to the debt and tax collectors.

Not me, I can't take it with me so I am spending it all here! (ok so I'll leave a tithe to my church)

Hopefully it will end up in the hands of the folks the baby boomers stole it from, using the mechanisms of government.

I hope ya'all are reading the entire article and not just the excerpt, because the intent is to give encouragement to the building of true wealth in the form of children. Children do not make the rich man poor -- instead they make the poor man rich, and are the true riches of the wealthy man.

The Catholic Church teaches that large families are a sign of God's blessing.

As a generation, the baby boomers, by way of government, have stolen massive amounts of resources from the generations after them.

Ms Kochan in action as the moderator of Catholic Exchange, belittling all, making fun of, and banning anyone who is a conservative and or traditional.

What does this lame article she posted here have anything to do about catholicims? She talks about larger houses, children supposedly gaining this wealth from the baby boomers (most of whom are so leveraged and mortgaged I dont quite know what she is talking about). More liberal garbage from her and her dictoral style

Hey Mary, maybe you should write something on the merits of the Traditional Mass, and how it held Catholics together for over 1900 years and how the Novus Ordo has failed us-and I bet if anyone walks into that big house you talk about in 70% of Catholic homes you probably wouldnt find one Crucifix or picture of our Lady
