ExpatGator made a better point than I could in post 92 with regard to China.
Now to Rush....I thought Rush was “upset” because the pope seemed to dismiss the importance of the “market” in people’s lives. When someone purchases the latest product, it means others have been employed to create/manufacture/market/transport it. New products mean JOBS. You can’t provide too much charity without having the means to do so.
I don’t think Rush is too attached to his things. I think he enjoys them for sure, but Rush spends far more time talking about concepts like liberty, morality, responsibility, you get my drift, than he ever spends talking about things.

Well, he can’t talk about ONLY his things because then no one would listen! :)
Well thanks. It just seemed obvious to me. Then again, I am only paraphrasing giants (von Mises, Hayek, etc.)
