Poverty

I agree... however, you state that you have "halfway decent" health insurance. Do you know that most likely if you had a catastrophic heath issue with halfway decent insurance..you most likely would lose everything you have come to own in your life.

I believe that what this information is telling us... is that if for a large majority of our population that they are living from paycheck to paycheck...and if a serious event happened in their lives... they would be homeless or depending on others to survive.

Whether that event is a natural disaster... a heart attack...or a serious downturn in the job market... many people are living on the edge.

As long as things maintain.... you are correct... they have a roof over their heads and food to eat every day.

That doesn't mean they are ready to handle a serious event in their lives should it occur.

Thanks for your imput... I appreciate reading your post.

Peace Love
