"It is not primarily the sex/booze/drugs that surround this event, as problematic as they might be; it is, rather, the flaunting of affluence, assuming exaggerated expenses, a pursuit of vanity for vanity's sake - in a word, financial decadence,"

Ahhh, another socialist liberation priest in the Catholic church. Moral decadence not an issue just having money that's the problem.

Having money was not the problem. Spending on teenagers it in ways blatantly antithetical to values of humility and modesty was the problem.

Noting the subtle difference is vital. Socialists and liberals have an agenda built on class warfare and envy. This school's agenda, and I believe any moralist who considers avarice a bad thing, has an agenda built on humility and modesty.
