Do your homework. In 1963, the "heart" of the Midwest elected a Mormon as governor for three terms and went on to support him in a presidential primary.

I greatly appreciate the moral clarity of the free market, yet I read little beyond tired, class warfare whining on this site. Uninspiring to say the least.

Frankly, I did not subscribe to Ricochet to read distilled versions of Papal theology every day of the week and yet, this is what I've been paying to read for almost a year. It's time to exercise my rights in a free market and cancel my subscription. (BSA, please take note).

Just for the record, I do not believe in the separation of church from state, but these comments have become nothing but sanctimonious distractions from the crises at hand. My recommendation to the author: get a j-o-b, pay some taxes, and pay due diligence to the realities of the American economy and the global financial markets.
