Unfortunately, as someone who has grew up in the Catholic Church and went to Catholic schools, I did see the discrepancies in how the wealthy and poor were treated.  For instance, the  Catholic high school I went to had a strict honor code where you could be expelled for things that you did outside of school.  Of course the honor code only applied to the poor Latino scholarship students while the wealthy kids were never disciplined.  (And this was in the 1990s BTW).  After the hypocrisy I witnessed first hand, it wouldn't shock me if some bishops were pulling strings for the wealthy - i.e. annulments.  

And I am sure that you and many other priests are currently doing good work with this but my concern is that AL won't really help many divorcees outside of liberal parishes where they were already being helped.  My liberal parish will continue to welcome remarried people but I am afraid that many other parishes won't.
