Nichols on the poor | National Catholic Reporter by MSW.  MGB: He is right to speak out for a solution, although I would rather he actually use the Church to do something to provide those in chronic poverty with the education they need, even if it is a practical rather than an academic one.  There is a certain snobbery in Catholic education toward giving educations to those who would be either priests or professionals.  Plumber and chef are just as good a career path - and you can still offer religion classes to students to everyone from basic adult education to votech (and yes, also college prep).
