The Episcopal Bishop of Washington, D.C. says we need to be concerned about the least among us. The least among us are innumerable in our world economy. Trump’s disregard for immigrants is just the beginning. We are all vulnerable.
Economists
say there are 4 factors of production:
land, labor, capitol, and entrepreneurship. But what is it all for? If AI is substituted for ‘labor’ and
‘entrepreneurship, ’what is the reason for an economy? Massive wealth is created for the few.
If there is
no need for labor, why be concerned about social justice for immigrants? Why be concerned about social justice? The rationale for an economic system is lost.
But if the
reason for an economic system is human survival and happiness, the factors of
production have to be adjusted to serve this goal. This is the lost factor of production.
Where are we
going? Is humanity evolving towards a
sincere awareness of the mandate, ‘Love God and love your neighbor’ or do we
face an apocalypse of destruction and we have to start all over again?
