This guy is a full blown Marxist. He should be Bernie’s VP.

Important to notice:

1- He is speaking to the entire world.
2- This is from the National Catholic Reporter which is notoriously liberal.
(Wait to see how the National Catholic Review reports this)

But wait. Slaves can’t quit and go someplace else where they can get a better offer.

Francis continues to reveal his real beliefs. How much longer do we have to suffer this blowhard?

But greedy, self-centered, incompetent employees are alright then?

Are morally right to seek more money and more benefits and more “rights” than they are worth?

"I will pay you this much, without vacation time, without health insurance, all under the table — but I will become rich!

The man is economically ignorant, in a classic leftist way. He's an Argentinian populist, so it's no surprise.

Someone needs to whisper in his ear that health benefits, vacation benefits, retirement benefits, and pay are all the same thing.

If all the people who say this would put their money together they can start and buy companies that don’t make a profit. They don’t need to change our system, they just need to invest their money in the capitalist system with no expectation of return besides getting their original money back in 10 or 20 years. The can employ A LOT of people this way with no profit motive that they complain about.

I wonder where Michael Moore and his buddies invest their money. My guess is that it’s not buying MacDonald’s franchises that operate without profit so they can pay $15/hour. It’s much easier to tell franchise owners to pay $15/hour than to do it with your money. He could put the franchise in the worst parts of Detroit, Phily, or wherever he complains other owners won’t invest. What could go wrong? He’ll get his original money back in 10 years and make lots of employees happy if he’s right about things. Does he really need interest on his 10s of millions of $$$ over the next decade?

And, if unions would get involved there’s a lot more money to buy companies and they wouldn’t need to deal with those messy negotiations. GM was almost free a few years ago (as far as companies like that go). Why wouldn’t the unions want to own it and run it as a private company for the employees? And buy other failing companies to reinvigorate them instead of letting them be sold off in pieces or move overseas?

If only the union members and MacDonald’s employees realized there’s a huge risk that deserves a profit for the owners for providing them jobs the way Michael Moore and union leaders do but won’t admit.

Funny how government centralizers are never “leeches”, by contrast.

One wonders what his true religion really is? Seems he is always pontificating all things liberal rather than spiritual.

Does this explain his kind words for islam?

Islam is a totalitarian ideology disguised by a cloak of religion.

In the past, the Marxists tried to destroy the church. Now they infiltrate, wrapping their totalitarian ideology in a cloak of religion.
