And no, wage regulations aren't "in there". Not in there unless a person's so liberal they can "mind read" God, the same way liberals "mind read" the founding fathers and the constitution. And that was my point. If you feel you can read anything into anything, you come across as a liberal.
You look it up. I'm tired. It's in there somewhere, probably in several places. My religion is none of your business, but since you decided to get into my face about it, I attend a conservative catholic church on the weekends I can manage to drag myself there because my heart is no longer in it.
4Behold, the hire of the labourers who have reaped down your fields, which is of you kept back by fraud, crieth: and the cries of them which have reaped are entered into the ears of the Lord of sabaoth.
James 5
Warning to Rich Oppressors
1Now listen, you rich people, weep and wail because of the misery that is coming upon you. 2Your wealth has rotted, and moths have eaten your clothes. 3Your gold and silver are corroded. Their corrosion will testify against you and eat your flesh like fire. You have hoarded wealth in the last days. 4Look! The wages you failed to pay the workmen who mowed your fields are crying out against you. The cries of the harvesters have reached the ears of the Lord Almighty. 5You have lived on earth in luxury and self-indulgence. You have fattened yourselves in the day of slaughter.[a] 6You have condemned and murdered innocent men, who were not opposing you.
The principle is the same.
It's not your problem about my religion. I am wearying of this world and fear for the future of my children and childrens' children.
Google is my friend and found the passage for me. Also found The problem of unjust conditions in Catholic organizations
I don't know if the link is fair or not; don't want to get into that part of it. They do say but don't give the bible reference:
"According to the Bible, the sin of depriving the worker of his just wages cries out to heaven just as loudly as the sin of murdering the innocent."
I had an ancestor in the 1600's who was fined for charging too much for his blacksmith services, and he probably had a monopoly in that particular area of Connecticut at the time. Those primitive, ignorant people who stole the land from the Indians had a social conscience.
