If we had actual free market capitalism working in an actually Christian based culture, I don’t think we would hear any of these things from Francis or we would not take them as aimed at us. Capitalism, as it is practiced now i.e. crony capitalism or mercantilism-fascism, is more disruptive of traditional human relations every day.
You still would hear the Marxism. To them, Christian Capitalism is the British East India Company. it's the Opium Wars. It's a mustachioed Cockney foreman beating the "darkies" when they fail to meet a quota. It's a robber baron impoverishing coal miners for no reason other than personal greed (his company would have magically sprung up by itself without him...) It's all about breaking unions. It's today's Wall Street - though they fail to notice that the current President is owned and operated by that same Wall Street.
A complete absence of economic education leads directly to feelings of entitlement, easily manipulated by priests and politicians alike. Where is the benefit for the hierarchy in an independent, free-thinking populace?
Bill Buckley once reminded us that capitalism is not an ideology but a method of creating wealth. That the worst thing about capitalism was capitalists. Ever notice how so many men who are industrial giants end up by thinking they have something important to say about other matters and do not? I am thinking about Henry Ford, but I could be talking about Bill Gates.
Ironic that people think that the people who control our economy, including financiers like Buffet, are in favor of a “free market.” They do their best to protect their interests by bribing the powers that be, whatever form of government that be. The recent openness to a “carbon tax,” is an example of their cynicism, as well as their promotion of the new morality.
