Francis: Property is theft and Socialism is the answer...
Robert P. Barnidge noted
that, "Francis has made his social and economic tendencies clear
since the early days of his pontificate. In his 2013 apostolic
exhortation, Evangelii Gaudium, Francis criticizes the notion that
reducing the disproportionately-high income tax burden on high-income
earners can stimulate investment and economic growth as a 'crude and
naïve trust in the goodness of those wielding economic power and in the
sacralized workings of the prevailing economic system. For the Holy
Father, inequality is the 'root of social ills,' though he fails to
explain precisely why a society of unequal wealth but a relatively high
standard of living would somehow be less reflective of Gospel values
than a society that shares equally in poverty.
Going further still, Evangelii Gaudium calls for structural
transformation that would 'restore to the poor what belongs to them.'
If, as Pope Francis suggests, property is possessed not by its owners,
then, truly, 'property is theft,' to quote 19th-century French anarchist
Pierre-Joseph Proudhon’s famous phrase."
The Popes have consistently condemned Socialism because it is intrinsically evil. See here.
But Francis promotes it.
If you're not concerned about Francis as a Catholic, you should be.
