"If an authentic economic order is to be established on a
world-wide basis,
an end will have to be put
- to profiteering
- to
national ambitions
-
to the appetite for political supremacy
- to militaristic calculations,
- and to machinations for the sake of spreading and imposing ideologies"
Maybe the way forward is for governments to get more, not
less,
involved in economic management
When governments, to make fast money, sell off their national
interests to private enterprise,
the result is often a lower standard of service and a cut in the number of
workers
....as the one main aim of profit, profit,
profit over-rides all other considerations
Holy Spirit, please help us avoid
the idol worship of greed
