How'd that happen!

Somewhere along the way I chipped one of my teeth. Bah. At least a traditional/paleo diet may be able to prevent tooth decay.

Economics:
Rupert Ederer, Oinkonomics
I think his objection to distributism is rather flimsy, and partly a strawman argument in so far as he identifies distributism solely with agrarianism.

Catholic neo-liberalism under the guise of "personalism"? The Need for Economic Personalism (archive) - the Acton Institute, of course.

The primary error of distributism lay in its understanding of the economy as a zero-sum game, where wealth was seen as a static, non-reproducible entity. Therefore the main problem was not the production of wealth but its distribution: How is the static pie of wealth most equitably sliced up? Distributism hindered the emergence of an adequate understanding of human capital and productivity. The distributivists saw economic development only in terms of the cultural dangers of industrialization and as a threat to the family unit. They did not agree that economic growth would generate wealth that would raise living conditions and be "redistributed" by market mechanisms and through charitable organizations. Such economic naivete blinded them to market realities and the basic laws of economics. By the end of the 1920s, however, distributism began to wane and was soon eclipsed by the New Deal Catholics of the Roosevelt era.

He could also read John Michael Greer on the primary economy. (In a similar vein to the above, The Economic Personalism of John Paul II: Neither Right Nor Left.)

Guest Post: A Message To The SPLC From A Montana "Extremist"
From Liberty Fellowship’s relocation program, to James Rawles’ American Redoubt, Stewart Rhodes’ Operation Sleeping Giant, and my own Safe Haven Project through Alt-Market.com, the powers-that-be are noticeably perturbed at the very idea of Americans walking away from their computers, leaving their homes, talking to each other face-to-face, and forming mutual aid groups. God forbid…
