I think it depends. Is $1 enough to grant you housing, food, healthcare, and free time to see your family?

- taway_1212 9y agoIt's enough to get a can of Coke (not everywhere though).
- vilmosi 9y agoI think the point is that $1 a day is acceptable if it provides shelter/food etc.
- hk__2 9y agoWhich it doesn’t.
- weberc2 9y agoIt does in many very poor nations. What's the significance of the $1 figure anyway? Whose point hinges on this number?

- vilmosi 9y agoIt doesn't IF it doesn't provide for said things. That's the point.
- hk__2 9y agoI got the parent’s point; you missed mine ;) I was talking about the second part of the comment: $1 doesn’t provide you shelter/food/etc.
- yesbabyyes 9y agoNo. $1 is not enough.
- accountyaccount 9y agoThat's my point though. Talking dollar amounts isn't the end goal. The end goal is what you can get for the money.
