I think it's a little to easy to overlook the abject poverty which still exists in this country. More than two million Americans lack access to clean water or sanitation. I personally know millennials who didn't have hot water in their house growing up. They would heat water on the stove for baths, at least when their utilities were turned on. There exist towns where literal sewage is running out of people's houses in areas where kids play. Hookworm for example is still rampant in parts of the US. Half of our rivers and streams and one third of our lakes are too polluted to swim or fish in, much less drink from. 99% of households having a refrigerator doesn't mean these folk are living comfortably. https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2017/sep/05/hookworm-lowndes-county-alabama-water-waste-treatment-poverty https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2017/sep/05/hookworm-low... https://time.com/longform/clean-water-access-united-states/ https://time.com/longform/clean-water-access-united-states/
