The poor carry the cross all the time, and Jesus carries all the poor. He has made them his cause in the world, knowing the burden laid on them by economic injustices and inequality, and the greed and sin of others — individuals, corporations, and countries. . . . The poverty, starvation, and desperation of more than six-tenths of the world's population has become a root evil that feeds violence, hatred, terrorism, and nationalism.
