That was a great summation Bill, and exactly the point I was intending to make. Patriot, and probably millions of others, view this information as "eye opening", (to quote Patriot), unfortunately it doesnt reflect reality and contrary to being eye opening, is actually blinding.
Sorry Patriot, for the sarcastic tone of my prior post, no disrespect intended. Just wanted to convey that poverty is real in America and I would offer the primary reason for many of our nations ills, including crime, child abuse, school drop-out rates, domestic violence, teen pregnancy, the high costs of health care, etc., etc.
