Why Has the U.S. Descended to a Poverty Rate Only Above Mexico and Turkey?
This gauging of poverty was done by the Organization of Economic Cooperation and Development, appearing in the Seattle Times December 12, 2008, which placed, out of the 30 major nations, analyzed that only Mexico and Turkey’s poverty rates were greater than that of the U.S.A. Perhaps that question could best be answered by one of Dallas, Texas’ newest residents, George Bush. Bush has apparently quit wearing that cowboy outfit that blended with his days at the Crawford, Texas ranch, where he took time out from the oval office chores to cut the ranch’s weeds. Recently Bush has been on a lecture tour, like the one in Canada, charging $400 for a lecture.
