I am huge fan and reader of GKC, but I could never figure out what “Distributism” is. I’m pretty sure it isn’t really anything.
Distributism is rural and small-town capitalism unencumbered by politicians and lawyers. When you go to a local blacksmith and buy a spade with which you till the potatoes you grow and eat, that’s distributism. When spades and potatoes are bought at the Walmart it is what we have, and distributism it is not.
