The surging ranks of America's ultrapoor


By one dismal measure, America is joining the likes of Third World countries.

The number of U.S. residents who are struggling to survive on just $2 a day has more than doubled since 1996, placing 1.5 million households and 3 million children in this desperate economic situation. That's according to "$2.00 a Day: Living on Almost Nothing in America," a book from publisher Houghton Mifflin Harcourt that will be released on Sept. 1.

The measure of poverty isn't arbitrary -- it's the threshold the World Bank uses to measure global poverty in the developed world. While it may be the norm to see families in developing countries such as Bangladesh and Ethiopia struggle to survive on such meager income, the growing ranks of America's ultrapoor may be shocking, given that the U.S. is considered one of the most developed capitalist countries in the world.

Keep importing ultrapoor and then imagining that won't grow the numbers of ultrapoor is insane.

You can preach the cold hard truth to idiots all day long, every single day, yet they refuse to look at the evidence. Many times, I have listed America's social and economic ills, yet fools continue to say that it's either the Republicans or the Democrats fault, instead of casting blame on both parties for what they've engineered and allowed to happen over the past half century. You just can't get folks to examine the evidence that leads back to the 50s, where the obvious roots took hold. What we're seeing and experiencing, is the direct results of "The Selling of America", through many administrations, both Republican and Democrat.

It's equally difficult to get people to see and understand that "ALL" professional politicians are bought and paid for. Every single member of Congress is a puppet for the rich, the powerful, and the influential. The same goes for the oval office. Honesty and politics mix like water and oil. Legislation and policy is bought and sold on the floors of Congress.

We're constantly reading and hearing people throw blame on the Republicans, the Democrats, the Liberals, the Conservatives, the Moderates, the Left Wings, the Right Wings, and any other label that one could possibly think of. When in reality, the blame falls on "The Washington Brotherhood", every single one of them. The cold hard truth of the matter is that Washington politics is corrupt, and once elected to office, professional politicians exert their will, and not the will of the people. What we have is "Taxation Without Equal, Fair, and Just Representation".

The voters continue, election after election, to elect professional politicians to serve in government, then those same voters spend the next 2 to 4 years complaining. They never stop to think that they're getting exactly what they asked for. When things go wrong, when the economy goes sour, when we send our soldiers to fight and die in senseless deadly costly wars, when there's no jobs, when millions survive by living off of government assistance programs and unemployment checks, and when they witness the obvious waste of tax dollars, they blame the very ones that they themselves elected to office. They never blame themselves for being stupid enough to elect professional politicians to serve in government. Go figure.
