Despite more jobs, US poverty rate rises
Percentage of Americans in poverty grew for the fourth straight year,

the
US Census Bureau reported Tuesday.


There is always some bads news that libs can dig up.



If we have a million Mexicans a year coming into the country with no jobs

and no education, but with
a most prolific ability, wouldn't the poverty rate increase as a matter of

course?

The poverty rate is always going to remain relatively the same, since it
represents the lower 20% of the economic scale. What they dare not do is
establish a poverty level consistant throughout the world, because poverty
in america would all but disappear.
