Such as,that individuals on welfare or/and the poor and destitute, have large screen TV's, high tech computer equipment etc. etc. I was appalled to hear a political pundit mention this sometime a few weeks ago on NPR and he continued to "suggest" that we really can't have a handle on poverty since our version of it is so very different from true poverty experienced in other nations. How ironic. Not wishing to compare ourselves with any other nations in general, it is however expedient to do so when it comes to measure of poverty? Disgraceful and unless the voter decides not to stay with status quo, not much is going to change our downhill course.CraftyVeggiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00803037607403397120noreply@blogger.com
