RE: Universal Basic Income: the UN’s Latest Wealth Redistribution Scheme

in #money7 years ago

Well, there's one entity that will encourage this wealth distribution model, the Vatican. But don't ask them to share any of their wealth.

Pius XI tells us this in his 1931 encyclical Quadragesimo Anno:

Under fascism, property owners may keep their property titles and deeds, but the use of their property is, as Leo XIII wrote, “common”. Fascism is a form of socialism that retains the forms and trappings of capitalism, but not its substance. Under fascism, property titles and deeds are intact, but the institution of private property has disappeared. Government regulations and mandates have replaced it. For this distinction between legal ownership and actual use, the fascists owe a debt to the Roman Church-State. [1]

Redistribution of Wealth

John Paul II wrote this in Sollicitudo Rei Socialis (On Social Concern) in 1987:

...the goods of this world are originally meant for all. The right to private property is valid and necessary, but it does not nullify the value of this principle. Private property, in fact, is under a ‘social mortgage’, which means that it has an intrinsically social function, based upon and justified precisely by the principle of the universal destination of goods.[2]
