POOR WELCOMES YOU IN USA
US Census Bureau recently (August 2007) showed that more than one in ten Americans live in poverty! Around 12.8 million children under the age of 18, or around one-third of the poor, existed in 2006 on incomes below the threshold used by the census bureau to determine who lives in poverty. Children without health insurance are increased by 700,000 in 2006. Three times more black people, 24.3%, lived in poverty than the 8.2% of white people who did. Houseof Representatives Speaker Nancy Pelosi said the report showed the American dream is getting further out of reach for millions.
