But to me someone whose wage is inadequate for them to eat without food stamps or food banks is in absolute poverty. If they're angry it's likely to be cos their life is extremely hard and depressing in itself, not just cos the guy down the road has flash trainers. Really what I'm asking is - is the number of people in this situation increasing or decreasing? I honestly don't know but I thought that this group was larger than one would expect in the world's largest economy.Don't forget foodstamps, which anyone under the poverty line is eligible for, and which will supply all the nutritional basics you need.
I'm not claiming poverty isn't hard; it is, very. And extreme mental illness is a real, serious problem that makes filling out basic paperwork or walking to the church each morning for breakfast tough. But let's not erect strawmen.
Not that people in that situation were able to travel to the Capitol and smash it up presumably.
