As Mr. Scalia also pointed out: the charity of the church also extended to your spiritual well-being, which secular charity does not do and are quite hostile toward it.

I also was impressed by his point that being in need and receiving help is supposed to be humbling; it is now demanded and expected.

Capitalism teaches a man how to fish. Socialism teaches people only to eat the fish that others have caught

Thanks for the link, it was a very interesting article on the different ideologies, none of which Christ preached or walked, but interesting none the less.
