Not this one either. Catholics have taken the "social justice" slogan as endorsement of "progressive" entitlements and welfare. It is long past due that we understand that social justice should be based on free trade and private charity. Where we view free trade and yes profits as a means to serve others. I see my disposable income disappear from my check because of mandates and wonder what good I could do for my family, locally for my Church and people outside of the Church in real need. The "progressives" don't seem to understand (or don't care) as opposed to allowing our resouces to serve a bureacrat and then allowing that same bureacrat to decide how to serve others, far more good is done when we control our income. It is more efficient and will produce better results for people, when we can decide how we value charity. Until Catholics in general realize that, we will continue to see diminishing returns on good works.

Yeah. I started watching and first thought was this is sarcasm. But looking into, he is a Maoist. And he is criticizing the "study" I guess politics makes strange bedfellows and all, but he is right in this video in some places. His motivation is probably dubious, to gather unwarranted distrust of the princples of our system of government versus the actions that are actually in conflict with those same princples. But really-A Maoist complaining about this study is like well you know the expression about fighting for peace is like......Really the great leap forward, the cultural revolution.....

Kindergarten-bad idea. He'll just start earlier. By first grade his students will believe counting is bad because 10 exploites the lower numbers because they aren't equal and "color" crayons is a racist codeword.

Of course it's racist! Look at it! He depicted the lone black president to this point in American history as black....amongst all the past presidents who were white. He should have shown Obama as white.....no that's not right. He should have shown some of the past presidents as black....no then Obama wouldn't be the first black president and then he wouldn't be all hopey and changey.....Look it as racist as calling someone Juan, "Juan" I'm sure of that/////

At first Matthews shocked me. But as noted in other posts he is Catholic, so it strikes home finally. But I doubt it doesn't even pass the freedom of religion issue with him. There is much more to it than that. From the beginning, I've been saying not only is the government mandating coverage, but also comprehensive coverage some people may not want. And all it will do is drive more money out of people's pockets (if employees don't think they pay for insurance coverage, ask your boss for a raise when his premiums go up on your coverage) to insurance companies.

Boring...Bring back bands like The Who. Hell, I might get some grief because of his politics, but bring back Springsteen. Much more entertaining.

I believe the statement "the way things are supposed to be." is from the Catholic belief that one of the possible consequences of sex is pregnancy. The belief in the Church (which I'm a member) is that artificially preventing the possibility of pregnancy it defines a barrier where an act of love is reduced to sexual gratification. So the couple defines their relationship merely on sexual terms rather than as mutual relationship expressing God's love. Agree or don't that is the Church's position on contraception.

As a Catholic with Libertarian leaning, I'm at odds sometimes with religion and politics. But in this case, it is a First Admendment position of freedom of religion. But there is another way to look at it. The "progressives" position is very telling. They believe because a entity provides a service, it has to provide all services that the "progressives" see it as the "greater good" They determine the greater good. The "progressives" are the ones mandating values. While the Church tries to define values, there is no absolute mandate to follow those values.

Actually three other Jeff Demet's at the same address with similiar handwriting. Happens all the time.

Yep. Despite my distain for him-can't say I blame him.

Creative destruction is bad on one side of equation. A blessing on the other side. Perhaps that is why Hollywood complains so much, SOPA you know. Outdated business models and no new ideas.

It does strike me as funny, though unintentional on their part. They use an "The Office" backdrop. Didn't the company in the show struggle to sell paper-the damed information age and paperless business. So then it was bought out. (OK, I admit it....I watch the show)
