Our political and economic system feeds on and must have a supply of certain distateful stuff. Poverty, for example. Most of you don't understand why that is necessary to our brand of capitalism, and how much of it is necessary. Some of you are still imagining that instead of there being winners and losers, there can be winners and winners. It's not true. Sorry. And if you're okay with that, then you are simply not Christian. You are okay with a system that dooms a certain percentage of the population. I'm not as satisfied, or as greedy, as that.
And war. We love war. We need war. I'm not okay with that either. As the saying goes:
Killing for peace is like fukking for virginity.

There aren't enough guns or nuclear weapons on the planet to eliminate poverty.The only way to eliminate poverty as we know it is to deregulate the market and access to it. Until that's accomplished, there will be poverty.
