You can go check the numbers somewhere, but I'll take him at his word. Most priests don't lie, as a rule.

I happen to value his opinion as his experience with the horrors of captialism is first hand.
How so? He is from Argentina and grew up under Peronism when many industries were nationalized which was then followed by a military-led government. Hell, Argentina did not have a democratically elected leader until 1983.

Precisely my point. He lived under fascism. Have you?

From usury since as far back as it goes, taking loans from Medici bank scams, to the Crusades and later working with Hitler (also getting money from Rothschilds) you think anyone who isn't a mind-numbed Catholic pleb is going to buy this load of crap? The Catholic church is a business - not the "non-profit" soul-saving machine it pretends to be.
Even if this current Pope is good at confusing even atheists as to his motives, it doesn't redeem the church as a whole.
Y'all are blind.
