No #54 of the Pope's statement in his own words:
“In this context, some people continue to defend trickle-down theories which assume that economic growth, encouraged by a free market, will inevitably succeed in bringing about greater justice and inclusiveness in the world,” Pope Francis wrote.
“This opinion, which has never been confirmed by the facts, expresses a crude and naïve trust in the goodness of those wielding economic power and in the sacralized workings of the prevailing economic system,” the 76-year-old pontiff added.
Yeah, sounds like Rush is Right.
I’m LOL’ing that Francis has even pissed off Rush.
Apparently the Pontiff has missed the hundreds of millions slaughtered by and the utter poverty and misery perpetrated by the State and its “guardians” over the last century.
The “invisible hand” of the market has done a lot better than the average government.
ALMOST makes me glad that Obama is thinking about closing the embassy to the Vatican...
