One In Eight Americans Lives In Poverty

CNN is reporting results of the Census Bureau’s annual poverty report– and it is not pretty.

The ranks of the poor rose to 37.0 million, up from 35.9 million the previous year, the report said.
-from “1.1 Million More Americans In Poverty“, CNN

These numbers say that more than one in every eight Americans lives in poverty.

It shocks me to see the poverty that most people take for granted in the world’s richest nation. When some people own empires, and others live in a box.. is society better off?
