The Chalcedon Podcast

Inflation is government theft, but are we helping the thieves? While Americans blame Washington for the declining dollar, few question their own inflated lifestyles and expectations.

Property is not a capitalistic invention but the ordination of God and a way to prove man's character because it is a tool of dominion. If we disregard God's law regarding property, sinful man and the state exercise dominion over it.
