And, by the standards Oxfam (or the World Bank) uses to define “extreme poverty”, leaving aside the mentally ill homeless who can’t or won’t take either state benefits or charity at the levels offered, there is no extreme poverty in the U.S.

If you’re experiencing it, it doesn’t matter if it’s mild or extreme poverty. But we’re nothing near the level of poverty that they suffer in 3rd world countries
