40 million people in poverty, USA.

[B][SIZE=3]Trump and the GOP, need to raise that minimum wage to $15 an hour!

Another laughably stupid argument from the economically ignorant.

The U. N. official is a "special rapporteur" which is a person appointed by an organization to report on the proceedings of its meetings.

The budget for the next two years will contain $138 billion in new domestic spending. I wonder how many people will fall into poverty if the federal government stops funding Sesame Street? They already make millions from the sale of licensed products.

This response does not shttp://mcadams.posc.mu.edu/ike.htmurprise me. few people learn from our history. Eisenhower in his farewell speech made a point about guns or butter. he warned us that the military/industrial complex was a threat to America as we knew it. Sorry military lovers, but you are gulping up the wealth of America. We a e making choices.We spend more on the military than the next 10 countries combined, and have for decades. We are not starving the military. But if you buiid it, you will use it and we have been in wars or interfering in other nations for a century. The real cost is hidden, however add in the CIA, and the nuclear programs costs, and you will get a sense of how big it really is. Don't forget the cost of the VA and healthcare of ex soldiers. The cost of 900 military bases. The pay to soldiers and staff. It is a waste. try waging peace.

Even taking your position at face value, it does not change that the DNC routinely bends over backwards to screw southern states. Killed Tobacco; Killed small manufacturing; Trying to Kill Coal; Trying to kill farming. It doesn't matter how much you cut from defense if you send it all to NYC and Silicon Valley.

The best ways to address this shocking indictment is to build a wall, produce more nuclear weapons, maintain 1600 military bases and remove people's health care. Not.

A wall to keep out the undesirables that would only add to the number for leeches that won't do for themselves.

Last time I read the Constitution it gave Congress the delegated authority to raise and maintain a military.

Addressing your last example, last time I read the Constitution, Congress DOESN'T have authority over healthcare. You're more than welcome to provide coverage for any of those you appear to be claiming you care for when it comes to healthcare coverage. They're not my responsibility. If you want to take them on as yours, please do.

Don't Worry, Trump Alone will take care of it!

that is a thought......if we deported them to Palestine how would their impoverished income stack up against the average income?....

More contrived babble from premodernposer.

Go fuck yourself with all this moronic anti-AmeriKa bullshit.

Anti-poverty, dipstick.

Actually, this doesn't surprise me at all. There's too many people here. So yes, build a wall to keep people out that don't belong here, producing more nuclear weapons has nothing to do with this, find out which of those 1600 military bases the host countries don't want there and close them down, and once again, there's too many people here, free health care is not practical. As we learned from obamacare, universal crappy health INSURANCE isn't practical either. To top it off, people thinking that an American Marxist utopia is the wave of the future are having children at a rate that is sure to exacerbate the problem. These people should not be reproducing(at least until they are emotionally and economically mature enough to support a family). It is my opinion that coming to America, or having children outside of an emotionally and economically stable marriage should be very unattractive to anyone consider either.

40 million out of an estimated 326 million (rounded up by 111K) would mean that 8% of the population in poverty.

I wonder how much of that percentage would decrease, if all illegals were removed?

Now consider that the number of Kanadians living in poverty is at 13%.

Looks like Moon should begin his complaining at home.
