Age-Old Distributism Gains New Traction
The breakdown the populace of the United States into factions that transcend state borders, or the failure of the National Government to unify disparate elements? With the loss of a proper scale to the political community there is a loss of identity and solidarity. The criticism of those participating in OSW and such as whiners and slackers and spoiled has not been little. The latest example is the counter-protest mounted on twitter: "We are the 53%": Hardship over Societal Well-being

I used to be a big fan of the Population Research Institute, and they are right to uphold natural law and the Church's teaching on contraception and abortion, but it seems to be rather naive about limits and the dependence of the global food system on cheap energy. The Green Revolution in agriculture which enabled industrial agriculture to support so many people was only possible because of oil. It would be right for PRI to recognize this, and push for local solutions and sustainable development.
