The Right Reacts To Pope Francis On Capitalism

In YouTube Posts by Hlarson1 Comment

 

“Pope Francis called for renewal of the Roman Catholic Church and attacked unfettered capitalism as “a new tyranny”, urging global leaders to fight poverty and growing inequality in the first major work he has authored alone as pontiff.

The 84-page document, known as an apostolic exhortation, amounted to an official platform for his papacy, building on views he has aired in sermons and remarks since he became the first non-European pontiff in 1,300 years in March.

In it, Francis went further than previous comments criticizing the global economic system, attacking the “idolatry of money” and beseeching politicians to guarantee all citizens “dignified work, education and healthcare”.”* Ana Kasparian, John Iadarola, Michael Shure and Jimmy Dore break it down on The Young Turks.

  1. Jimmy nailed it with leaving religion on the weekends so you can feel good about yourself while you shit on the poor the rest of the week. How could your moral views not influence most other aspects of your life?
