I thought this article was a great primer on Joe Biden's worldview in terms of Catholic social teaching since the late 1800s. He hasn't followed it perfectly (see his railway union policy last year), but it's a pretty good summary of his views. quote:The letter Benedict wrote in 2009 was called “Caritas in Veritate” (“Charity in Truth”), a social encyclical that continued a long tradition of Catholic social teaching, the modern era of which began with Pope Leo XIII’s 1891 publication of “Rerum Novarum” (“About New Things”). As with many of these letters, including “Rerum Novarum,” Benedict’s encyclical emphasizes the need for unions and government obligations toward workers.
