You almost gotta laugh. The low information left loves the new Pope because stupid liberal media types editorialize about his views on capitalism.
Pope Francis Leaning Left?
He is leaning Christian.
There's nothing wrong with calling for fairness in economics and politics.
As a simple gauge of the fact, the wealth distribution graph over the last 30 years points to a patent economic unfairness, which The Pope, among others, has no difficulty pointing out. Denying the fact of it is simply pointless and/or ignorant.
No question Jesus would frown at trickle-down.

Yes there is. Who decides what's fair? Justice, i.e. equal rights for all is an entirely different thing.

Wealth distribution world wide has way more to do with justice and equality under the law than the nebulous definition of fairness. Do away will all the legal double standards, including in this country, and then we'll talk.

Jesus didn't advocate socialism, that is, government redistribution of wealth. His advice was completely non-mandatory. "Trickle-down" economics was nothing more than the media being anti-Reagan--and his tax cuts worked extraordinarily well as they had for Coolidge, JFK and Bush II.

I like Pope Francis because he has no compunction about calling unfairness what it is, bringing it to the attention of the very people who've been blindly following Trickle-Down theory in to the ballot box since the 80's - the religious right.
If Francis can get the religious right to see the unfairness of Trickle-Down theory for what it is, he deserves to be Time's man of the year.
PainefulTrtuh continues to flounder, misrepresenting the Savior, misrepresenting the role of government, without facts or solid philosophy.
Just a sordid presentation that undermines the OP.
You made the bold ass assertions without evidence, so all I have to do is point that out.
And Tom Paine would back the Pope's concern for equality before yours for exceptionalism of one group.
Son, remember that facts can influence opinions, but opinions never facts.

I think the matter-of-fact use of "trickle-down", the pejorative phrase the media used to belittle Reaganomics, is all I needed to see to confirm his prejudice and bias. And it has been shown that there is obviously a point beyond which, if taxes are raised, people's incomes and government revenues go down, and vice versa. if that weren't true, then a 100% tax rate would be the most beneficial for both.
the pope talks all Jesusy............
the republicans lose their minds
Republicans be damned, libertarians and independents see a red flag. The best piece of propaganda the left ever came up with is that Jesus' anti-wealth stance favors socialism. Jesus advocated voluntary charity for the poor, not forced confiscation. That said, there are many more honorable wealthy people today than in his day because back then they didn't have economic freedom and government protection of private property which enables the honorable acquisition of wealth. But that doesn't stop the class warfare mob today from making their false accusations and demagoguery.
you realize the lleft right spectrum is artificial right?
Socialists=left, capitalists=right. Other than words being associated with definitions, how is that artificial?
