'Dangerous' to see family as hurdle

Redazione Ansa

(ANSA) - Vatican City, August 19 - Work should not be hostage to the logic of profit, Pope Francis said at his general audience Wednesday.
    "When work is detached from the alliance of God with man and woman, when it is hostage to the logic of sole profit, the consequence is a demoralisation of the soul that contaminates everything, and the consequences hit the poorest above all" Francis said.
    He added: "the modern organisation of work shows a dangerous tendency to consider the family as a burden, an obstacle to productivity." The pope warned that "causing the loss of jobs means causing great social damage".
    Francis has frequently taken stances against the inequality caused by modern global capitalism.
