And the bishop's sacred time and space has a name - it's a cathedral!"<br /><br />So it's his. And he needs it.

Among the remedies it prescribed were the formation of trade unions and the introduction of collective bargaining, particularly as an alternative to state intervention."</i></b> ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rerum_Novarum )<br /><br />The USA is a signatory to the United Nations Universal Declaration of Human Rights (1948). It states in Section 23(4):<br /><br /><b><i>"Everyone has the right to form and to join trade unions for the protection of his interests."</i></b> ( http://www.un.org/en/documents/udhr/index.shtml)<br /><br />Morlino is the relativist.

Living wages and social justice count for nothing with them. This fits in well with Frank Cocozzelli's recent posting on Ettore Gotti-Tedeschi's attack on Keynesian economics.khughes1963https://www.blogger.com/profile/16118365554189078448noreply@blogger.com
