Please send some money to Saudi Arabia

Somebody said that the last Marxist in the world will be a Jesuit, like the editors of America who simply cannot believe, deep down, that somebody could have cultural, non-economic motives. The Catholic contribution, of course, consists in having an unshakeable faith in moralistic platitudes like

"sustainable development, renegotiation of lopsided trade agreements, a rethinking of the economics of globalization and an end to military and political unilateralism on the part of the United States."

That will certainly eliminate poverty! And thus terrorism! Why didn't we think of it before? It's easy!!
