Poverty in America

DID YOU KNOW
that the US government arbitrarly sets the poverty line at the bottom 12% of the people.??
So even if everybody were millionaires the US government would say those below 12% were poverty stricken compared to the rest
Run on over to the Congo & see how much they make per year and then compare that to our poor people
Poor is pretty much relative
Take out the crazies, the don`t cares, the fuck ups, winos, druggies, chemical abusers & see how many you have left out of 37million

YOU can not be 200% below anything including the poverty level
so he was full of crap

YOu don't get access to health care in England. It's freakin rationed.....British people are going to India to get care. the robbylove......is an idiot

and americans attacked obahma for the health program - idiots!!!! thank heavens i'm british!!!

Here's the thing, most Americans are dumbed down. HealthCare isnt the priority of this country, its jobs and dealing with its poverty. Green Collar Jobs is the answer for this age. Our technology is so far advanced and our need for energy is in such high demand that this can create jobs for everyone in America, from CEOs to janitors in every state. Obama's idea of creating jobs is rebuilding roads, these jobs were first created by FDR in the 1930's. It's 2010. America doesnt need politicans.

Poverty is a problem that lies of a much wrose problem: the money as we conceive it. It is responsible of poverty, pollution, drug traffiking, corruption and so much suffering.
I have in my account some solutions ( to who is interested it). Politicans do not show the true problems and i am scared for what could be happening really.
If you speak spanish, you can understand this.
Good video.

I'm 18, I live with my mother and If I didnt have a job there wouldnt be any food in the house and our pets would probably go hungry. Where behind on bills because my Mom isn't making much more than I am at $8 a hour, And guess what, she went to college. I have next to nothing when it comes to material possesions, and heres the thing. I'm happy just being able to get a new pair of socks every 6 months.

People like "Juuzify" have no idea.

I use to be a county jailer ,I witnessed poverty up close,hell if your a jailer ,you dont make much more than a fry cook at mcdonalds ,but thats another story,I remember one WW2 that was homeless, they had kicked him out of shelters,he would break into cars on car lots ,and sleep in them ,he knew he would get arrested ,he did it ,too have a place to sleep and food, thats right folks ,even jail is better than the streets,thats how we treat our veterans ,much less the ordinary poor person

venus project is the future :) I can't wait!
