The pope castigated unemployment, underemployment, inadequate wages, automation and a lack of job security as violations of human dignity. These conditions, he wrote, were forces that negated self-esteem, personal satisfaction, responsibility and creativity. The exaltation of the machine, he warned, reduced human beings to the status of slaves. He called for full employment, a minimum wage large enough to support a family, the right of a parent to stay home with children, and jobs and a living wage for the disabled. He advocated, in order to sustain strong families, universal health insurance, pensions, accident insurance and work schedules that permitted free time and vacations. He wrote that all workers should have the right to form unions with the ability to strike.

Frases de #SãoJoãoPauloII para nós: . "Caros jovens, só Jesus conhece o vosso coração e os vossos anseios mais profundos. Só Ele, que vos amou até a morte (cf. Jo 13, 1) é capaz de saciar as vossas aspirações. As suas palavras são de vida eterna, palavras que dão sentido à vida. Ninguém, senão Jesus, poderá dar-vos a verdadeira felicidade" . "Fazeis resplandecer a luz de Cristo em vossas vidas! Não esperéis por ser mais idosos, para vos empenhardes no caminho da santidade! A santidade é sempre jovem, como eterna é a juventude de Deus" . "Queridos jovens, ide com confiança ao encontro de Jesus, e, como os novos santos, não tenhais medo de falar d'Ele! Porque Cristo é a resposta verdadeira para todas as perguntas sobre o homem e seu destino" . "Jovens de todos os continentes, não tenhais medo de ser os santos do novo milênio!" . São João Paulo II, amigo da juventude, rogai por nós. . #JoãoPauloII #PopeJohnPaulII #santidade #Papa #Santo #SantosJá #ilustração #illustration #illustrator #inktober2020 #drawing #doodles #painting #artedigital #digitalart #art #sketch #desenho #dubujo #ink #creative #artoftheday #graphic #católico #catholic #fé #esperança #amor #Pax https://www.instagram.com/p/CGpRnc4DGX0/?igshid=1d60g2i3o8tuz

This is Immaculate Conception Convent Chapel earlier today, with its front steps flanked by golden angels. In 1969, the then-Cardinal Karol Wojtyla (#PopeJohnPaulII) celebrated Mass there during a visit to Felician College, which was founded by an order of nuns originally from Poland. My maternal grandparents are buried at St. Michael’s Cemetery next door. My Polish grandmother wanted a burial plot under a tree near the Felician Sisters’ convent... figuring the nuns would often look out at the tree and direct their prayers in her direction. During my visit today, I was saddened to see that the tree was cut down long ago and only its stump remains. #njchurcheverysunday ⛪️ (at Lodi, New Jersey) https://www.instagram.com/p/B3k8AqrHfVG/?igshid=1b19pric31rpw
