VATICAN CITY – On Easter Sunday, in the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic, Pope Francis has called for the consideration of a Universal Basic Wage in a letter to popular movements and community organizations on the front lines of the coronavirus pandemic response. “This may be the time to consider a universal basic wage which would acknowledge and dignify the noble, essential tasks you carry out. It would ensure and concretely achieve the ideal, at once so human and so Christian, of no worker without rights.”

I am no longer surprised by anything Francis says. If he comes out tomorrow and says that all farmers should be forced into collectives, I’d just say “There he goes again.”

“What is WRONG with this man”?
This “pope” is a Marxist/Globalist/Social Engineer. He has no concern for the saving of souls.

is the pope willing to give up all that he has and live on this same basic universal wage per year? No? Didn’t think so- Hey pope- Everyone must share the pain for universal income! We’ll wait while you dump your millions into the universal income piggy bank- and learn to live on $500 a month like everyone else will have to do in order to even begin to take universal income seriously-
I’m seeing figures that his net worth about $30 million
Funny how all these ‘universal income’ advocates are all mega wealthy, and have no intention of giving up their wealth ‘for the good of everyone’

[a Universal Basic Wage]
Seems like this could become the new order of the world (cough).
Dunno
BUT if it does, then it’s not too much of a leap to where world governments require, oh, maybe a 666 to continue receiving your Universal Basic Wage?
