315MM divided by 50MM = 6.3% not the 16 percent stated above.

Sorry, FRiend, you got your fraction upside down. (50,000,000/315,000,000)*100=15.87%

That’s pretty much what the poverty rate was in 1965 when “The War On Poverty” began.

Now, 15 TRILLION dollars later, virtually no change.

How dreadful and what a farce of public policy.
