The Fatal Flaw and the Return
The U.S. Constitution is the best and most realistic secular system for securing classical and Christian justice for all, if is is not altered. The fatal flaw of this system is that the Founders were so cynical about power that they underestimated the Church in its role in guiding power, and we see the consequences. The Capitalists have chosen material gain over moral principle. We are falling apart while the Capitalists cast their lot for the leftover pieces.
Can the Constitution still secure morality and justice? To do so we must return to the original unaltered version (see Ron Paul.) Other solutions to our decline seem revolutionary, while Conservatism works best over the long term. It seems that what will happen first will be the revenge of socialism on capitalism, as the cycle continues with extremes. The middle ground is when Capitalism yields to agriculture and small business, owned by many men, not by a few, supported by our great Constitution and the Catholic Church.
