Carl McAroy made the news. And whenever he does, it's not usually good. If you don't know him, he is the Cardinal Archbishop of Washington, DC. And he was made the arch, he was put in that post after like two days or so after the election of President Trump in 2024. And since then, he has taken every opportunity to be kind of the USCCB's point bishop on challenging the president and his actions. And there's a reason for that. The Cardinal McAroy, for as much as I disagree with him on virtually every issue, he is far and away the most intelligent among them. And I do not mean that to denigrate the rest of the bishops. I mean the man is extraordinarily sharp and you should take it the things he says very seriously. He's not some doofas who may be who managed to become a Cardinal or a bishop because of Brown nosing. He is a very sharp mind.

He is a very dangerous adversary. And I hate to think of bishops as adversaries, but here we are. So Christopher Haley, Democratic Party Propagandist who wants most of you guys to stay home on election day or vote for Democrats in the midterms. That's his job. That's what he's doing. He's used to work for the Obama administration and he's a Catholic. And he posted this to ex. Pope Leo the 14th three top American Cardinals spent several days in August with the leaders of Silicon Valley's frontier AI labs. The labor market is going to radically change the next 20 years. Cardinal McAroy told the union members of St. Matthews Cathedral. Millions of workers who have jobs now will not have those jobs 10 years from now. So far so good. Factually he's probably not wrong. And it's fine that the church try to take a stand for workers to make sure people can actually have a livelihood in things. This is where he loses the plot though. He grounded the warning in what Mr. Hale calls the oldest

claiming Catholic social teaching. No one intrinsically owns anything. McAroy said all that is, that has come ultimately from the gift of God belongs to all of us. And that is not even close to true. Cardinal McAroy has gravely distorted Catholic social teaching. We'll go to another person who has some really strange ties to the American Episcopate because Rich Reho is just a Catholic high school teacher. And he gets inside tips from Rome. He has broken stories from the Roman Curia before before I'd that economy and life side in the pillar. Another state. I don't know how he does that as a high school teacher, but there we go. Posted this to X, he'll give you a little more context. Cardinal McAroy at Labor Day Weekend Mass. No one intrinsically owns anything. All things that come as a gift from God belong to all of us. Everyone is a right to be part of the world's bounty. When we work, we are co-creators with God. The labor market is going to dramatically change in the next 20 years.

Certain sectors will be wiped out by AI. Millions of workers who have jobs now will not have those jobs 10 years from now. He said that out of mass. Catholic social teaching actually says that private property is a fundamental right to the human beings have. It's like a quarter of a step below sacred. It's not sacramental. It isn't totally inviolable. There are times when private property can be taken from people. But Catholic social teaching until Francis made pretty clear that private property rights were fundamental human rights. You had pre-concil your Pope saying this. Leo the 13th said that in his denunciations of communism. Said private property. So fundamental human right and human beings as many human beings as possible individuals and families should own as much property as possible. It would help balance out, say, mega corporations if more human beings individuals and family units owned property. That was Leo's 13th take on it. It was

echoed by every Pope until Francis. You see that here in the Catholicism of the Catholic Church. Colonel McAroy has his bizarre world take on private property. He's invoking the universal destination and private ownership of goods. This is right out of the Catechism. This is the Vatican's website with this part of the Catechism in it. It's paragraph 2402 for those who still have a physical copy of quite possibly the worst Catechism ever published in the history of the church. I know that will shock many people, but the Cardinal who put it together for John Paul II back in the 1990s when it was published said this thing is a garbage heap and will need to be edited severely. And it has been just not the way he asked for because when Francis started blathering on about the Capitol punishment and trying to change church teaching on it, he had to change the Catechism change reflect his opinion on it, which Capitol punishment was something the church has always been

okay with always and rooted in scripture. You can't change the church's teaching on it. But anyway, paragraph 2402. In the beginning, God entrusted the earth and its resources to the common stewardship of mankind to take care of them, master them by labor and enjoy their fruits. The goods of creation are destined for the whole human race. However, the earth is divided up among men to assure the security of their lives, endangered by poverty and threatened by violence. The appropriation of properties legitimate for guaranteeing the freedom and dignity of persons and for helping each of them to meet his basic needs and the needs of those in his charge. It should be allowed for natural solidarity to develop between men. Private property doesn't divide us. It actually helps foster solidarity because it kind of curbs a lot of the competition for survival by having private property. The right to private property acquired by work or received from others by inheritance or gift

does not do away with the original gift of the earth to the whole of mankind. The universal destination of goods remains primordial. Even if the promotion of the common good requires respect for the right to private property and its exercise. In his use of things, man should regard the external goods he legitimately owns not merely as exclusive to himself but common to others also. In a sense that they can benefit others as well as himself. That does not mean that he loses property. It means that with your property, you should look to ways that can benefit other people. This is charity. This is sustainable. This is solidarity. The old Catholic value of problems should be handled by the most local unit possible. And the most local unit is you helping your neighbor. Right? That's the most local unit imaginable is you helping your neighbor or you helping your family first. The ownership of any property makes its holder a steward or of providence with the task of making it fruitful and communicating its benefits to others first of all his family.

Anybody got a problem with this? I don't think I doubt it. Goods of production, material or immaterial such as land, factories, practical or artistic skills oblige their possessors to employ them in ways that will benefit the greatest number. Those who hold goods for use and consumption should use them with moderation, reserving the better part for guests for the sick and the poor. Being you're expected to do charity. If you have abundance, you're expected to do charity. That's not a radical concept for Christians. Political authority has the right and duty to regulate the legitimate exercise of the right to ownership for the sake of the common good. Contrast that to a Cardinal Macaroid said, no one intrinsically owns anything.

That is a monarch. He is owned by the monarch. Boyle it down, it really is. In a democratic, republican, constitutional republic like the one we live in, every the land is owned by the people in theory. I'm not going to get into debates on the veracity of systems like ours really being governed by the people, but it's the common inheritance of everybody. Handled through government and private property law and all the rest. When you throw open the borders, you disregard private property values and private property rights on a massive scale. By the way, it's one of the reasons why your housing costs are so high. Some estimates of how many people who are here who shouldn't be here are 60 million people, 80 million people, and a measurement would happen if the people who shouldn't be here regardless of where they're from went home. See the housing market crash. Are you starting to see that in Texas, by the way, with all the changes to the H1B visa laws that have happened suddenly a lot of the people there. A lot of people from India there are finding they can't get jobs and are going

home and a lot of their houses are going in the market crashing the local housing market and that's not a bad thing unless, you know, except for maybe the banks if you're sympathetic to them. Cardinal Macro is probably not sympathetic to the banks and frankly neither am I. So maybe we've got something in common there. What does a general rule? What are you saying is an attack on private property? Full stop. There's no way to see it otherwise. So Comrade Macro, I give him the game away. But don't be surprised by that in the slightest. He sells it through very carefully crafted words because the man is very sharp. Take him seriously. He's not tagli. He's not Cardinal Tagli. Hello fellow kids dancing and rapping with them. Cardinal Macro is a serious man going about very serious business. Take him seriously. I'm curious what you think about all of this. So let me know in the comments please.
