text: "Many Catholics who are very conservative and economically prosperous are very happy that the Catholic bishops give priority to the life issues of abortion and euthanasia. This allows them in good conscience to vote for conservative politicians who claim that these issues are a priority for them. The problem with this, however, is that these conservative politicians are not that interested in promoting the common good."
  
  Many of these Catholics don't believe or want the common good.  Instead they call people who work for the common good "do gooders" as if that is a horrible insult.  They have taken the atheist/materialist Ayn Rand's philosophy and call it Catholic.
