| dc.description.abstract | The problems of the poor to access justice are legendary. They are well known to all of us here who, in one way or the other, have been involved with legal aid. I could rehearse them all over again, perhaps more eloquently, perhaps with greater detail and examples, but, I ask myself, for what purpose and why? Does poverty disappear by singing about it? Or, to give a better analogy, does charity eradicate poverty? After all, they have lived together as Siamese twins over the ages. One cannot exist without the other. What Marx said about religion, applies mutatis mutandis to charity. It comforts the rich and massages their consciences, while dampening the anger of the poor. And lo! behold, we continue to have more rich, more poor and more charity! | en_US |
