“Poor Results”

According to data from the U.S. Census Bureau, almost 1 out of 2 Americans can now be classified as poor or low income.  What’s really sad is how the comparatively rich “low income” people are not taking care of the poor.

The poor are, in turn, jealous of people earning a low income.

It’s hard to distinguish “low income” from “poor”, unless you break it down to those who have a cell phone contract, and those who pay for data, talk and text month-to-month.

Most of America won’t pay any attention to this statistic, however, unless those in both the poor and low income brackets start speaking with a cockney accent from the 1890’s or earlier.
