US poverty on track to post record gain in 2009
Well, when are we gonna hit bottom?
http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20100911/...rty_in_americaWASHINGTON – The number of people in the U.S. who are in poverty is on track for a record increase on President Barack Obama's watch, with the ranks of working-age poor approaching 1960s levels that led to the national war on poverty.
Census figures for 2009 — the recession-ravaged first year of the Democrat's presidency — are to be released in the coming week, and demographers expect grim findings.
It's unfortunate timing for Obama and his party just seven weeks before important elections when control of Congress is at stake. The anticipated poverty rate increase — from 13.2 percent to about 15 percent — would be another blow to Democrats struggling to persuade voters to keep them in power.
"The most important anti-poverty effort is growing the economy and making sure there are enough jobs out there," Obama said Friday at a White House news conference. He stressed his commitment to helping the poor achieve middle-class status and said, "If we can grow the economy faster and create more jobs, then everybody is swept up into that virtuous cycle."

OK throw more tax payer money at it it will with time go away. The Obama success solution, play it again Sam.
Funny, I thought Yale and Harvard had higher standards.
There you go thinking again. Dont you know that you are not allowed to do that, its UN-American. Just suck in what the media, and White House tell you.
I hear they're going to start taxing that so I figured I'd get some in while it's still free.
rotflmao. Not bad.I hear they're going to start taxing that so I figured I'd get some in while it's still free.
