RadioActive! March 10 The Case for Book of Mormon Socialism
Troy Williams (2011-03-10)
SALT LAKE CITY, UT (krcl) - The Book of Mormon advocates a Zion society where people have all things in common and the poor and needy are taken care of. As the United States struggles with high unemployment, upside down mortgages and a growing income gap between the rich and poor, what role does government have to play? Should Mormons embrace and support government programs of redistribution? William VanWagenen from the Mormon Worker, David Knowlton from Utah Valley University and environmental writer Ed Firmage Jr., discuss the intersections of socialism, capitalism and Mormonism. © Copyright 2012, krcl
