Thanks for the response. I was taught in seminary classes (1964-65) that double effect was a valid principle. The example then given was a drug store clerk selling contraceptives and the conclusion was she was moral in performing her job duties, despite strictures against contraception. (I long since have rejected the ...

You make it quite clear that you feel opposing injustice is a waste of time, and those who do so do it for the worst of reasons. I'm afraid that the response I would like to make would be deemed uncivil. What I will say is that your claim to be a Christian is questionable at best. I suggest that you first read Isaiah ...

Republicans call defunding public education "starving the beast of government." And of course since St. Ronaldus Magnus said that government is the problem, well, you get what you don't pay for - in this case an unenlightened electorate.

Trudeau spoke of "the middle class" from day one. To him we each fit into a particular "class" box, a "gender" box", a "race" box, etc, and we're all in conflict with one another. His different, identifiable class concept is Marxist-hued, which you'd expect from a family that was friends with Castro, Aga Khan, etc.

How can you stabilize a market without controlling costs? By throwing more money that we don't have or aren't willing to spend (note the continual budget deficits) to fully fund? Same as we do with SS, Medicare, Medicaid? Throw what's under-funded on the debt? Irresponsible.

This was looking pretty good until I got to the part about "a number of improvements that would be paid for by the state." If this is a viable business model then there is private capital out there to fund it. The taxpayers should not "go in the hole" to maximize private industry's profits.
