Herman Daly on Degrowth
Herman Daly is the founding father of steady-state economics. Unlike most #mainstream economists, Daly acknowledged the destructive impact of non-stop GDP growth on the environment and societal wellbeing.

An Invocation of Churchian Support for Statism
Jesuit Father Leo O'Donovan: "Be with us, Holy Mystery of Love, as we dream together. Help us under our new President to reconcile the people of our land, restore our dream, and invest it with peace and justice and the joy that is the overflow of love."https://t.co/PKtuYRdWko

At best this is just more naive religious civic nationalism from Gomez. But the effect is the same: acquiescence to statism and state-coerced unity.
Friends, I entrust you to the tender heart of the Blessed Mother, the mother of Christ and the patroness of this exceptional nation. May she guide us in the ways of peace, and obtain for us wisdom and the grace of a true patriotism and love of country. https://t.co/rY8ALKQmGF

This is just another part of the distortive narrative being pushed by @Americaeditor and @americamag. The Statement of Archbishop Gomez is largely congratulatory and conciliatory. By pushing this false narrative of division, they wound the unity of the Church. https://t.co/iIylE2vRD3
