Another Crack At The Definition Game

At Cato@Liberty Jason Kuznicki tries to help:

The seemingly arcane difference between laissez-faire and corporatism is one of the most important in today’s public policy debates. Laissez-faire means the equality of all before the law, with the state neither helping nor hindering any market actor. Corporatism means offering special favors to those who’ve already succeeded. (Just for starters: “Too big to fail” is corporatism.)

Hopefully, this one isn't a lost cause.

On a related note, I notice Christian leaders decry globalization. I think one of the great mistakes of recent times are precisely those leaders missing the reality of economics and fussing about one thing when the bad effects that they don't like are really caused by something else. Corporatism, fiat money, intellectual property, tyranny, etc... There's a laundry list of things that really cause problems for the poor globally, but globalization, per se, isn't one of them, unless you feel like being fuzzy in your thinking and just throw everything together in one convenient label so that you can shake your finger at it.

But, I suppose I understand now why some actually have an agenda to change the definitions of words. They can easily, now, seem to have the moral high ground as they steal us blind. I wonder what sin shall they perpetrate on us, once they've changed the definition of marriage?
