Electing Socialist Majors Across America Will Not Solve the Abuses of Unconstrained Capitalism

Feeling pressured to pick between the state and the market? We challenge that trap and make a case for a third way that takes human dignity seriously, starts in the heart, and rebuilds culture from the ground up. We walk through why many young people gravitate toward socialism when family and schools fail them, and why unconstrained capitalism—when severed from God and moral law—leaves the soul hungry and communities brittle.

We chart a different path rooted in a Christian vision of freedom ordered to the good, where love of God flows into love of neighbor, and where formation shapes the kind of people who can actually sustain a free society.

You’ll hear hard critiques—of socialism and hypercapitalism’s nihilism—paired with hopeful, concrete steps: prayer that grounds the day, the sacraments that renew the heart, small groups that build accountability, and local action that serves the poor, protects life, and strengthens communities.

We also discuss the Claymore battle plan https://jp2renew.org/claymore/ as a practical map for spiritual formation and cultural rebuilding. The goal isn’t outrage; it’s forming men and women who can love well, raise families, start businesses with integrity, and anchor parishes that become bright centers of mercy and truth.

If you’re tired of false choices and hungry for a life that unites faith, work, and citizenship, this is your invitation to begin. Subscribe, share this episode with a friend who needs hope, and leave a review with one habit you’ll start this week to live the third way.
