The bishops, particularly the committee that writes on economics, etc. (I think it’s “Peace and Justice” or something similarly leftwing), are absolute fools when they stray away from things relating to religion. They’re very often fools on the latter topic, too, or have been until recently.
There is NO “Catholic” economic or political system and NONE that is intrinsically non-Catholic, as long as the liberty of the individual is respected. The latter would obviously eliminate things like Marxism, even though Marxism is the one the bishops love best, or at any rate, the one beloved of the elderly left-wing bishops. They look like idiots by trying to pronounce on economics.

Look up the term ‘subsidiarity’ sometime. Yes, there is a Catholic economic and political system. No, it’s not communism or socialism.
