    I have been making the same argument. The free market works because the foundations of socialism are wrong and trying to build a free market system without recognizing that will cause you to fail in the end.

    Is there a book that presents a theory of economics based on love like they are talking about?

      The *best* start would be Eugene McCharraher,'s "The Enchantments of Mammon: How Capitalism Became the Religion of Modernity", followed immediately by "Radical Sacrifice" by Terry Eagleton

      Traditionalist Catholics have a economic theory called Distributism, I think its similar to what Doug and George are describing.

    this is categorically wrong. That is not capitalism.
    Economics is defined as the Allocation of Scarce Resources that has alternative Uses. Every other definition is wrong.
    The allocation of these scarce resources is best allocated by the free market, not by a top-down centrally planned economy aka the Soviet Union, as one from there I can tell you first hand it doesn't work.
    The US has stopped having a free market economy with the creation of the federal reserve in 1913.
    Since that time the Dollar has been devalued by 95% .
    in the 1800 the dollar was deflationary and goods went down in price by 50%
    The government needs to be stopped it is a force that will cause the greatest amount of chaos the world has ever seen.

      clearly, you haven't studied economics, Sowell was not the first to say this and won't be the last.
      Knowledge is the most scarce resource that's what Sowell argued and the guy in the video says the same exact thing. So many obtuse people running their mouths.

      @@Nineteen84 Ah, yes, because that is what rich people like yourself do, you say wrong things on youtube comments. Also, it's because I have studied economics (and I have studied Sowell) that I can say he's wrong here. I read and then investigated . . . it seems you just merely read and then accepted and then obeyed.

    I guess I would be Christian mixed market economics
    First ten percent of income would be a tithing deduction

    Common law republic
    Welfare that gets people working or capable to work

    It would be great to see an interview or segment about Distributism, given its close ties with Catholicism, perhaps you could bring on John Medaille.

      You should take time to listen to Christian-creationist scientists. Neanderthals were human beings and some people today descend from them. That is not evolution.
      Check out even the Answers in Genesis videos on here about Neanderthals. Your school or whatever lied to you about what Christians believe and what Neanderthals mean.

    Gilder seems more aligned with the Jeffersonian southern agrarian tradition. I tend to think that reducing humans to a production input is and treating them as such is deeply flawed.

      You mean like Hans Hermann Hoppe?
      "There can be no tolerance toward democrats and communists in a libertarian social order. They will have to be physically separated and expelled from society. Likewise, in a covenant founded for the purpose of protecting family and kin, there can be no tolerance toward those habitually promoting lifestyles incompatible with this goal. They-the advocates of alternative, non-family and kin-centred lifestyles such as, for instance, individual hedonism, parasitism, nature-environment worship, homosexuality, or communism-will have to be physically removed from society, too, if one is to maintain a libertarian order."

      @@HumanShieldrpg People are not solely motivated by money or purely economic rewards. That is the Austrian School insight I was referring to versus the simplistic neo-classical Homo Economicus. Things like family and kinship are also taken into account. Hoppe is good on many things. Thanks for sharing.
