1. Free enterprise is not freedom.
The greatest indoctrinators in this society are private corporations and organizations like Coral Ridge Ministries. The latter exists only to manipulate the public.

2. Thom owned that moron.
Scandinavia, and most of Europe, have a much higher quality of life, a normal amount of work, and decency and respect for humanity. Things Americans have much to aspire to.

3. good debate
I feel the same frustration as Thom. The free market advocates today are globalists and con-artists. It equates to supply side economics of Reagan. The rich get richer while main street gets poorer. Not a level playing field and the only loyalty is to the bottom line. But they want to play with our money. Retirements, pensions and even social security. They would love to get their hands on that. Beware when you hear privatizing it.

5. Thom should ask the guy
to explain Acts 4:32 "And the multitude of them that believed were of one heart and of one soul: neither said any of them that ought of the things which he possessed was his own; but they had all things common."

Sounds like socialism to me.
