The release of this document, “Towards Reforming the International Financial and Monetary Systems in the Context of a Global Public Authority,” led to a number of comments by people of diverse political/economic stances - many of which appeared to be offered by persons who have not read the document (as, unfortunately, so often happens when papal encyclicals and other Church documents are released.
