Thomas Aquinas: Founding Father of the Socialist Welfare State
"In cases of need all things are common property, so that there would seem to be no sin in taking another's property, for need has made it common."
"It is not theft, properly speaking, to take secretly and use another's property in a case of extreme need: Because that which he takes for the support of his life becomes his own property by reason of that need."
