You can simplify where you can, but as technology advances it gets more complex to manufacture. You can't reasonably build a cell phone in your garage from base components.

As for quality of life metrics, things like literacy rates and life expectancies, home ownership and mortality rates. The Catholic Church should not determine this as they do not base their beliefs in known material reality.

I am fairly certain that you're a troll, though, so I don't see much point in continuing this.

And according to you, socialism is necessary for further technological advances. Why? How come we managed to have technological advances without socialism for 99% of human history?

So as I said, arbitrary bs socialists deem important.

I understand that you have different gods. Catholics have Jesus and socialists have material reality. But that's just your opinion, man.

Sorry for not accepting socialist dogmas unquestionably.
