Shocking: Millions of Americans Subsist on $2 or Less per Day
I know that the income gap between the rich and the poor has been increasing at alarming rates over the past decade, but I was shocked to learn that millions of AMERICAN children get by on less than $2 a day. In a third world country, where the cost of living is lower, that might be do-able but what the heck can you buy with 2 bucks in the USA?
