Occupy Greed not Wall Street

I tend to stay away from commentating on Politics in public (e.g. this blog). With the latest development of the occupy movement I decided that I would make a few comments here.

One of the most predominate things that stands out is that the cause is to fight corporate greed. I do not believe that greed dominates the corporate world. Does it exist in corporations? Sure and I'm not in denial of it but what is forgotten or never considered is that greed is universal. Much could be said about this from a theological perspective but that's not my expertise.

Recently I purchased and watch The Call of the Entrepreneur documentary done by Acton Institute, co-founded by Robert A. Sirico. In the video it is made very clear that corporate America is much more than a collective body of greed.

I highly recommend the documentary. That is all for now....happy reading!
