Family is the whole deal. Note strange places like Utah have become one of the brighter economic lights today in the US, merely because of stable families, nurtured by religion.<br /><br />The problem with Burnham and Chambers? They look at "big picture" issues that come from smaller ones so the picture is always fuzzy.<br /><br />Truthfully, these are glorious times of peace and prosperity in the West for anyone who can keep their family healthy. The problem? This peace and prosperity is going to be short lived.MKnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29137904.post-10339298303942090812016-06-22T23:49:01.847+10:002016-06-22T23:49:01.847+10:00@ Jason

I've got to admit that I've re-evaluate the New Deal as a result of Francis's writings. The real problem is that the past failed but what are the alternative solutions.<br /><br />My own view is that a certain amount of government intervention in society is going to be necessary but how to limit it. I've not done an in depth study of the subject but I feel the immediate post war German constitution with concept of the Mittelstand may need to be looked at further.<br /><br />I'm glad you went to Itay. Have you been to Europe before? Italy is very easy on the eye and I agree with your observations. It's not just a change of mentality that's required but a change of morality as well. Europeans, particularly the Mediterranean ones, place a high emphasis on physical attractiveness, not primarily in erotic terms but in terms of "bella figura".The Social Pathologisthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12927698533626086780noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29137904.post-73421759476352724352016-06-21T07:47:16.535+10:002016-06-21T07:47:16.535+10:00Just an aside, doctor, that you and your readers m...Just an aside, doctor, that you and your readers might find interesting. I was in Florence, Assisi, and Rome recently, and was impressed with how most of the ladies there were 6s, 7s, and 8s (and very few of them were fatties). Although the Italians probably have a certain genetic advantage over us Americans, there really isn't any reason why most U.S. young women couldn't approach their attractiveness and be usually 4s, 5s, 6s, and 7s, which would be a healthy state of affairs, I think. Simply a change of mentality is required.Jasonnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29137904.post-34461835289189897472016-06-21T07:28:17.302+10:002016-06-21T07:28:17.302+10:00A good series of essays doctor on Francis and Burn...A good series of essays doctor on Francis and Burnham. While I think they painted with a rather broad brush, what they argued is true enough. Their contentions are a bracing tonic for somebody like myself, an old-fashioned liberal/moderate conservative who has generally been sympathetic to FDR and the New Deal, despite their well-known excesses. Obviously a price was paid for 1930s American liberalism, and not only in the manegerial regime that metastasized. Perhaps the greater defect of this socialism, at least in my mind, was the message sent that any time people are having real difficulties, it is the responsibility of the state to step in rather than the family or community. Hence the essential virtues of self-reliance, steadfastedness, and solidarity with other citizens - much of the glue of republican government - were lost or at least severely diminished. And as you would say, here we now are in an era of "soft totalitarianism" (let us not fail to emphasize the soft!), with much of Tocqueville's famous prediction about "What Sort of Despoitism Democracies Have to Fear:" panning out: "The will of man is not shattered, but softened, bent, guided."
