    I’m always skeptical of poverty statistics because I believe the metric to meet poverty is wrong. For instance the bureau of statistics puts the poverty line at just under 15k annually. Please tell me how a person making 20k a year affords housing, food, and other basic necessities without government assistance.

        You’re correct but the bureau of statistics is American so that’s really where I’m talking about. However this data point doesn’t give a lot of faith that the statistic for other countries is accurate either.
