Quotes to ponder

The purpose of an economy:  "To serve the fundamental needs of society which are prosperity, stability and contentment."  Sir James Goldsmith  (thanks to www.thomhartmann.com)

Catholic Social Justice Teaching on the "Common Good":
We measure (our work for the common good) by how the working class and poorest among us are doing.  Government is obliged to be caring.  It's obliged to serve and to help build the country as a whole.  Stephen Schneck, Catholic University of America

The "trickle-down" theory of economics
