Sohrab, of course family isn't just a "core economic unity." LMAO. But you are describing the family in an economic context. So I did too. — PolitiTweet.org

"Hey, guys, I can't join you for drinks tonight. Having dinner with my core economic unit" . . . Is almost as bad… https://t.co/98WQXqld5U

@michaelbd If the idea of capitalism is that it is not a moral system upholding family in and of itself, of course that's true. Not even Adam Smith contended otherwise. But families are indeed economic units contra the larger communitarian state. — PolitiTweet.org

@SohrabAhmari As I said to MBD, not even Adam Smith would contend that capitalism inherently *upholds* the family. Core institutions like church do. But the notion that capitalism inherently undermines the family whereas governmental interventionism preserves it is flawed, imho. — PolitiTweet.org
