Census: 1 in 7 Americans live in poverty - Sep 2010
Other census findings:
?Among the working-age population, ages 18 to 65, poverty rose from 11.7 percent to 12.9 percent. That puts it at the highest since the 1960s, when the government launched a
war on poverty that expanded the federal role in social welfare programs from education to health care.
?Poverty rose among all race and ethnic groups, but stood at higher levels for blacks and Hispanics. The number of Hispanics in poverty increased from 23.2 percent to 25.3 percent; for blacks it increased from 24.7 percent to 25.8 percent. The number of whites in poverty rose from 8.6 percent to 9.4 percent.
?Child poverty rose from 19 percent to 20.7 percent.
Beginning next year, the government plans to publish new, supplemental poverty figures that are expected to show
even higher numbers of people in poverty than previously known. The figures will incorporate rising costs of medical care, transportation and child care, a change analysts believe will add to the ranks of both seniors and working-age people in poverty.

First, poverty & debt must be widespread, painful, and inescapable.
Then they will "save us" by ensuring we are firmly secured to the government teat forever.
We are close.
This brings us closer.
The enslavement is near completion.
