Pope Leo calls for universal health care ‘in every society’ in first address in Uruguay (r/worldnews)

• ACompletelyLostCause: Cue the alt right now claiming the Pope is an atheist communist, and shouldn’t involve himself in politics.
• SuperTropicalDesert: I genuinely think he is overstepping a bit here though. The Pope should stay as apolitical as possible so as to keep the institution respected in the eyes of as many of its subjects as possible. Just like is the case with the King in the UK. It’s not an elected position so saying anything that will make you supporters and opponents will weaken the institution itself.
• keithps: Aren’t there literally tons of catholic, or catholic associated hospitals? According to wikipedia they have like 12% of all hospital beds in the US. Maybe the pope should put his money where his mouth is and make catholic hospitals free to start. Otherwise he can fuck off.

• green_flash: 200 billion cubic feet sounds like a lot, but it pales in comparison to some other natural gas fields.
  
  To put the number in perspective: South Pars / North Dome in the Persian Gulf is the world’s largest natural gas field. Qatar has been producing up to 25 billion cubic feet per day from that field.
• Quinnbloom189: Egypt has been chasing energy self sufficiency for years so any new find helps, but for scale the Zohr field was around 30 trillion cubic feet. At 200 billion this one is less than one percent of that, so it buys time rather than changing the picture.
