JB JAMES Chapter 5
5:1 Now an answer for the rich. Start crying, weep for the miseries that are coming to you.
5:2 Your wealth is all rotting, your clothes are all eaten up by moths.
5:3 All your gold and your silver are corroding away, and the same corrosion will be your own sentence, and eat into your body. It was a burning fire that you stored up as your treasure for the last days.
5:4 Labourers mowed your fields, and you cheated them – listen to the wages that you kept back, calling out; realise that the cries of the reapers have reached the ears of the Lord of hosts.
5:5 On earth you have had a life of comfort and luxury; in the time of slaughter you went on eating to your heart’s content.
5:6 It was you who condemned the innocent and killed them; they offered you no resistance.
He wasn’t angry about capitalism, he was angry about sacrilege.
I also have to point out, when libertarians say shit about trade, we always need to remind them that buying and selling things is not capitalism by itself.
So, don’t be libertarian, even if just for this one scene.
