    This article talks about people in poverty and why they struggle to survive. Iwas really sad when I saw the statistics about how 26,000 to 30,000 children in poverty die everyday.

    I didn't know that Statistics show that 14 to 20 percent of the U.S. population lives in poverty.

    This article was really a wake up call. I never realized that that many people were in poverty, and i never really thought about how many children were in poverty. This is a really good article if you are interested in the statistics of poverty

    This is very interesting and its good to know the percentages for poverty rates and stuff. it is kind of sad, though, how extremly high all these percentages are.

    I am amazed that the official rate of poverty was 14.3 in 2009. from the 13.2 from 2008

    I think the saddest thing about this is that there is so much good info and statistics out there, like this website, but so many people don't know how bad poverty really is. I had no idea that poverty was this bad, or that it was increasing this fast.

Homeless Homelessness Statistics Countries World-wide Shocking Rate Highest

shared by Stonerook J on 13 Jan 11 - No Cached

    This site has statistics of homelessness all over the world! India has the highest homeless rate out of all 100,000,000 people without homes in all of the world, with 78,000,000 people out on the street. This are some shocking numbers, and really deserve to have a look. I find it amazing that there's enough homeless people in Hong Kong alone for them to make the list with other countries.

    Ohio is #24. That's like, in the middle from everyone else. That's really sad to know, I feel bad for being so selfish and buying things for myself when there are people out there who don't own alot...

    This talk about what Barack Obama is doing to handle poverty.Wow, they are giving 20 billion dollars to food stamps, and that seems like so much to us, but really that will not feed all of the poverty in America.

    I cant believe how much money it will cost us to help fight poverty and hunger. We already have everything that is needed for everyone to survive. It is just a problem of sharing it.

    it was interesting to see what the government is doing to alleviate poverty. The article talked about an act that they made to help people in poverty.

    This article is talking about the similarities and differences between the Depression and now. The author is saying how they might have had it better than us because they tried to get jobs instead of now how people just ask the government.

    I know a couple people from the depression, one was affected very badly from it and one wasn't. so i have heard what it is like to live through something like that, and i cant even imagine having to. to have all your deams vanish and be depressed all the time because you can't do anything because you can't afford it.

    THis article talks about poverty and tells us how we can help prevent it. It also has some facts about poverty like how many live in poverty on average.
  • Stonerook J on 13 Jan 11
     
    I can't even imagine trying to live on less than $1.25 a day. It's great to know that, in the past 30 years, the amount of people in the world having to live like this has halved, from 1.9 billion to 1.4 billion. We still have a long, long way to go! This site can give us some ideas on how to change things for the better for our generation, and generations to come.

poverty causes health children brain development

  • Green C on 13 Jan 11
     
    This article describes how poverty affects childrens brains. The articles says that lower class children's brains develope differently than those of the higher and middle class. This affects thier language skills and thier "ability to plan and remember details". I found this article interesting, and i think it might help explain why people who grew up in poverty have trouble getting out of it when they are older.
