- monster99 7y agoI invite you to try getting a mate or date while being a poor man in north america and see how it effects your mental and physical health. You're a god moron, status matters and if you don't think it does you need to have your status and health reduced so you can feel what it's like to be on the receiving end.
- atoav 7y agoAnd I invite you to ask yourself why UNICEF uses “my” definition. I nowhere said that I don’t see that definition without problems or that I wholeheartedly stand behind it. Another definition used by the World Bank is the poverty line, which fails to capture other aspects of poverty (e.g. two parents with full time jobs unable to pay the rent in a rich society). The definitions of poverty are a huge topic in sociology and economy and if you feel they misrepresent reality, go ahead and make a better one.
