Excerpted from:
In Defense of [True] Capitalism
Great post. Can you tell me where it was excerpted from? Is it a chapter from the book you cited-> Amazon: “Why the Left is Not Right - The Religious Left -Who they Are and What They Believe” Ronald H. Nash, PhD. It looks like Ronald Nash has written several books on Capitalism/Socialism as they relate to Christianity - I would be interested which one in particular this section is from before I buy one.
This post does a really good job of explaining things in a way that even high school kids can understand.
Our kids’ school wants to improve its Christian worldview training and I want to make sure they do a good job of teaching in the economic area- so I’ve been looking around at various worldview training curricula. Our family has several books describing the issue from a purely economic reality standpoint, but need a few to recommend to our school that have a Biblical basis.

Thank you, yes:
It’s an excerpt from his book:
Why the Left is Not Right

You will find the audio commentary on that same thing (and more), here:

He was also a great professor of mine and brought so much good humor to the classroom. One of his favorite ole saws was, “I don’t know if it is a coincidence or not...maybe just such a coincidence, but every time Plato was right he agrees with me.”
