We've all seen the wonders of "trickle down economics." It's why the
rich call us "peons."

The Pope said “some people continue to defend trickle-down theories
which assume that economic growth, encouraged by a free market, will
inevitably succeed in bringing about greater justice and inclusiveness
in the world. This opinion, which has never been confirmed by the
facts, expresses a crude and naïve trust in the goodness of those
wielding economic power.
So is the Pope now an expert on economics (the dismal science)?
"Trickle-down" theories could be wrong - but they could be right. It
is surely possible to be a pious Christian and either support or
oppose socialism. When popes claim that one or the other side is right
they get dangerously close to claiming that supporters of the side
they oppose are not true Christians - and so not saved.
Jesus would be turning in His grave - if He hadn't risen.

Email HIM. Offer to evangelize the Tantrika-s. Maybe he'll offer to
make you a socialist proselyte and then, if you are successful, a bishop.

BTW, those folks over on Infowars have a tendency to contradict
themselves. They were talking about the riots at stores
Thanksgiving Evening and saying that "individualism" would prevent
that. WRONG. In fact much of the dialectic on Infowars is for
the "we" people. They like to point to the BBC documentary
"Century of the Self" which is about how the "me" society was
created and how destructive it has been. And you can't have much
of a revolution with a bunch of "me" people.
They also thought that if the crowd would be this bad over cheap
goods how much worse would they be fighting over food? Hurricane
Sandy rather disproved that.
That crowd is often a group out of sync with themselves.

Who could imagine ... Bhari2 and EmilyMaybeNot should now be
satisfied.
Trouble is Bhari2 is a Tantrika. So the "Holy Father" and the
"Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith" will require him to
repent his Hindoo errors. Repent now and profess the truth! ...
"You didn't make that!".
Convert now to the true faith. Admit that you are not God but are
the God-damned.
