Pope Francis, the social reference of the popular economy

The Pope Francisco He is one of the great defenders of the popular economy and one of the referents of a large part of the social movements, whom he always takes into account in his speeches or when organizing meetings in The Vatican. In fact, in the CGT several still remember an anecdote from 2016: Juan Carlos Schmid, At that time, one of the three leaders of the workers’ union had returned from a trip to the Vatican with the precise instructions to advance in the incorporation of social movements into the CGT.

They say that the trade unionist took John Grabois to a meeting with the other union priests but it ended badly: they almost spun with Héctor Daer. Today the incorporation of the workers of the popular economy to the workers’ center is still stuck.

“There is a regrettable resistance,” Grabois tells NEWS. “There are few who do not want to but are powerful, who stupidly see the incorporation of the workers of the popular economy as a threat to their power when it is not, we even proposed entering without the possibility of voting.”
