    Wouldn’t work, unlike the Protestants, who all had their own interpretations of the Bible, so they had to learn to not persecute each other

    Corporations, capitalists, and the people they’ve bought in government are all on the same page worshiping the Almighty Dollar and it’s Holy Book, Modern Monetary Theory.

    You’ll find the economics discipline frighteningly dogmatic and unwilling to adapt to new information or accept that accepted theories may be flat out wrong.
