Inequality is the Root of Social Evil

A Tweet from Pope Francis recently came to my attention...


Really?  There is no and can be no true "equality" in society.  As Jesus Himself said, "The poor will always be among you..." (Matt. 26:11).  This was said in a context of the disciples criticizing the use of expensive oils on Jesus when they could have been sold and the money given to the poor. 

Thoughts?

Keep in mind while posting:
1) Please respond ON TOPIC to the article at hand.
2) Posts more than 4 weeks old are set to automatically save new comments for moderation - so your comment may not show up immediately if you're responding to an older post.
3) The "Spam Filter" is on - and randomly messages get caught in that filter. I have no control over which messages get caught in the spam filter and those that do must wait for me to mark them as "not spam." A message caught by the spam filter may show up for a moment, making you think it posted, and then disappear. Do not assume I have deleted your comment, it's probably just the spam filter and it will show up.
