CTP (S3E121) Earning vs. Taking: A Capitalist’s Case for Responsibility
We push past slogans to talk about earned profit, personal responsibility, and why entitlement corrodes trust. A diner meltdown, a Tigers rant, and a faith-based lens tie together work ethic, charity, and the costs of ignoring human nature.
• why “best capitalist life” means refusing hypocrisy about profit
• earned income versus coerced redistribution
• the diner incident as a snapshot of entitlement culture
• personal backstory on disability, work, and dignity
• biblical community versus worldly communism
• incentives, human nature, and why systems fail without accountability
• profit as proof of value, not a vice
• practical calls for local charity and personal action
CTP: Exploring more of the fascinating intersection of Activism, Community Engagement, Faith / Religion, Human Nature, Politics, Social Issues, and beyond
