The Correct US Poverty Rate Is Around And About Zero
- DerpDerpDerp 13y ago"Around and about zero" means that 1 in 20 people is in poverty, at least to the author. That means in the average classroom, you'd have 1.5 kids in poverty (if classroom population reflected the general population; there are reasons to think it doesn't). I'm glad that kid-per-class is a non-issue to the author.
- transfire 13y agoFood stamps and medicare do not make a person less poor.
