Economics #1

I actually really enjoyed Mr. Moore’s clip and made me really think about what he was saying.  I found it very interesting when he pointed out that it was wrong when the rich man would walk into the room and take nine pieces of the pie and leaves one piece for the poor.  I agree that it is wrong that the (some) rich feel they can do and have anything and everything they want and the less fortunate can have what is leftover.  At times they do not feel they have to follow the laws that are set for the good of all people.  We have been learning that there are different degrees of wealth and poverty.  Some feel that they are happy and satisfied with material possessions rather than Jesus.  I feel it is necessary for everyone to know how a successful economic system should work and that it takes the whole society working together to make it succeed. Mr. Moore pointed out that the system should be ran by the people, for the good of the people with good moral and ethical beliefs. I feel as Christians we can make a difference by bringing Christian ethical and moral values and beliefs to our society.
