Two other very troubling reports in our paper this morning. . .
1 of 6 Americans classified as "living in poverty"

This was apparently the result of a glitch in City software. Commercial drivers are required to speak English. (Who knew?) There is no such requirement for non-commercial licenses, but the software that offers choices to a policeman of tickets to write did not make that distinction, leading some officers to write don't-speak-English tickets to regular drivers.
