Donations.
Looks like the Catholic church has a real socialist in leadership. The free market does help to create tyrants in business without any ethics, especially in my field, sales. But it also produces great and wonderful companies that help people raise families and advance their lives here on earth. It is a FREE market for good or evil, just as God has it set up!
