Great explanation. Superb ability to simplify complex philosophical and political ideas to both specialists and members of the public. Thank you.

The primacy of the investor and the maximization of their returns at any and all costs is the cancer of capitalism

Thanks for this: I've spent a lifetime wondering what people mean when they say, 'mumbo-jumbo.'
Now I get it.

I was just reading about this somewhere totally unrelated - John Van Epp. He defines that other element needed in people (besides technical skill as "a conscience." He very clearly points to that as a core around which competance and other characteristics are built.

Yes, I agree with the vision - and so, perhaps, I should leave it there. If i dare to elaborate, i think there's a confusion present between the past as an example of distributism successfully functioning _in the past,_ and a distributist desire to _return_ to the past. In practice, we can look to examples such as Mondragon as real world distributism in action, and see that it is less like the individual shopkeepers depicted in the video.

Hmmm, very interesting rundown of a totally demented "philosophy." I had never heard of Mounier before (even though I grew up in France), and I can see why...
