Steve refers to this speech.

Yet, I see nothing that he does that is helping the little people. Working against China, is for his financial benefit!

He said the 2008 Great Recession opened his eyes to the exploitative behavior of society’s elites. He saw politicians and businessmen doing nothing to help the lower and middle class. This stirred up his desire to become a conservative grassroots political leader. 

Bannon feels his Catholic upbringing informed his “populism,” teaching him that free-market capitalism must be set up in a way that upholds the dignity of workers: 

It’s always struck me, the more I’ve gotten involved in conservatism, the way people addressed economics. And I realize you’ve got the ‘Protestant work ethic’ and everything like that. I call it ‘Cato-Austrian economics,’ and it cuts so across the grain of how you’re raised as a Catholic. There’s an enlightened form of capitalism; and then there’s this whole bare knuckles [attitude], ‘everything’s related to net present value, everything’s related to return on investment.’ It’s just not the way Catholics think; it’s not the way Catholics are brought up to think.
