“Thus, if there exists a law which sanctions slavery or monopoly, oppression or robbery, in any form whatever, it must not even be mentioned. For how can it be mentioned without damaging the respect which it inspires? Still further, morality and political economy must be taught from the point of view of this law; from the supposition that it must be a just law merely because it is a law. Another effect of this tragic perversion of the law is that it gives an exaggerated importance to political passions and conflicts, and to politics in general.” IfsGivingStillsFormLawPoliticalPassionPoliticsViewsEconomyEffectsInspireTaughtMoralityConflictImportanceSlaveryPoint Of ViewOppressionTragicMonopolySanctionsExaggeratedPerversionRobberyPolitical EconomySupposition Author:Frederic Bastiat

“Men will see in their king or in their rulers men like themselves perhaps unworthy or open to criticism, but they will not on that account refuse obedience if they see reflected in them the authority of Christ, God and Man. Peace and harmony, too, will result; for with the spread and the universal extension of the kingdom of Christ, men will become more and more conscious of the link that binds them together, and thus many conflicts will either be prevented entirely or at least their bitterness be diminished.” IfsMenWisdomTogetherPoliticsChristResultsEconomyKingsConflictAuthorityConsciousCriticismUniversalAccountsHarmonyRefuseSpreadKingdomsObedienceLiberalismLinksBitternessRulersExtensionsUnworthyPeace And Harmony Author:Pope Pius XI
“We believe this approach (progress sharing) is a rational approach because you cooperate in creating the abundance that makes the progress possible, and then you share that progress after the fact, and not before the fact. Profit sharing would resolve the conflict between management apprehensions and worker expectations on the basis of solid economic facts as they materialize rather than on the basis of speculation as to what the future might hold.” BelieveFactsMightPoliticsEconomyProgressShareEconomicConflictApproachCreatingExpectationsBasesManagementWorkersProfitRationalAbundanceLiberalismResolveSpeculationApprehensionProfit Sharing Author:Walter Reuther
