However, Wood's and Paul's economic policy is inconsistent with Catholic social teaching, especially that of Leo XIII, and Pius XI. Too bad there isn't Distributist Party or candidate.; January 21, 2012 10:34 AM
BONIFACE said...: If you are referring to Ron Paul's overall support of Austrian economics, I would tend to agree. But, in specifics, I think Ron Paul's proposals to audit, reign in and ultimately diminish or abolish the Fed and get us on a sound money policy would do more to promote small ownership and subsidiarity than anything any of the other candidates are talking about.; January 21, 2012 11:25 AM

Thanks for being one of the few Catholic Blogs to really get it. So far, that makes you, Mark Shea and Tom Woods. I am glad for the video. I believe

Dr. Ron Paul really gets the loopholes in our system that cause so many misfortunes. He wants to end them, not pay lip service.

The other candidates just gloss over serious issues and think we the citizens--their electors--do not know the real issues.

The fact that Governor Romney and President Obama have the same campaign donors (Goldman Sachs and other crony banks) should be a SIGN!! No different politics, just mere appearances.

Also Speaker Gingrich's top donors are from alternative and renewable energy companies carbon tax that will be pushing their agenda through him. Sitting on a couch with Nancy Pelosi was a favor he did for money to push global warming on us and to use that to bring in carbon taxes.

Do the American people really want a government pushing agendas of anybody except the American people as a whole? It's time to end this folks. Let's walk down the narrow path.

Lobbyists and Bankers writing bills and pretend congressman acting as though they are freethinkers. The system is broken. A first step would be to remove the cancer in the form of corporate interests and reign in burdensome tax!

The problem is, Wood's dumps on the Popes of the last 150 years as soon as they say something (usually economic) against what the Secular Scriptures teach.

Woods knows better, and thus was lying through his teeth when trying to play the Catholic card.

The true "Catholic first" folks are those who say that Ron Paul best aligns with Catholic Social Teaching - ironically more than the Catholic candidates - and thus Paul is the only real option. Woods wants Ron Paul for reasons that make Catholicism a secondary concern.; February 13, 2012 10:00 AM
