We're Number.......... 16!
This is pretty tough to take. The richest country in the world is content to have a third of its children living in poverty. And who's leading the way? All those pinko soshulist countries in Europe, that's who.
Remember when Rubio said that Bernie would be a fine president...... for Sweden? Their child poverty rate is little more than a third of ours. Source: UNICEF- https://www.unicef-irc.org/publicati...12-eng-web.pdf https://scontent-iad3-1.xx.fbcdn.net...10&oe=5819FC96 |
Sure, but we have guns and freedom here, or something.

I just got back from Canada and it did not appear to me that there was anywhere near the economic disparity there that we have in the U.S. Yet I was surprised to see that they did not appear as one of the 15 countries above us in the chart. So I check inside the report and found that their child poverty rate is in the low 20's while ours was in the low 30's. So obviously they belong ahead of us. I wonder how many more there are?

We have gone from 37 to 38th in infant mortality last year and we (Congress) can't even fund Zika prevention which should be a no brainer. Kinda just like when Raygun ignored AIDS, guess the dumbass figured ignore it and it will go away?

At best. Actually, in 2013 we were #34. https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/...s-ranked-34th/ In 2013 we were at about 23%. And since then, the rate has risen to 32%, an increase of 39%. https://img.washingtonpost.com/wp-ap...erty.jpg&w=480 Note that Italy is ahead of us and they have the highest childhood poverty rate in Europe. http://www.thedailybeast.com/article...ys-unicef.html |
