Child poverty rates on the increase in US: If America wants to offer us a better side of her, why not offer something of permanent good, such as a portion of the country (a few states) for our ever-increasing population, because this isn’t working!

Greetings,

cp Again i say to both the American government and to you, “It would be totally ignorant on our part to be swept away to our doom by accepting these maelstrom promises of social equality temptations. Our ignorant masses cannot be trusted under the charms (temptation) of un-alike. But in the end you will regret your actions.

cp2If America wants to offer us a better side of her, why not offer something of permanent good, such as a portion of the country (a few states) for our ever-increasing population? Will the white man fool himself in continuously making promises to us that he knows he cannot fulfill? He has his own problems of unemployment, with the ever-increasing unemployed of his own kind fleeing from Asia and Africa, plus the loss of foreign trade.

cp3Can we hope for him to care for us and our children forever? No! We need a place on this earth that we can call our own, and go to work and produce our own needs; and this will provide us with employment for our unemployed. Let no man deceive you; we are face to face with a change of worlds.”–pgs.118 & 119(tfoa)

They are bankrupt and if you trust their promises to give you a job and to give you luxury and equality in the future, you are a stone cold fool that will wind up being the losers as we see here;

Child poverty rates in the United States have been on the rise since the early 2000s, according to an annual analysis by the Annie E. Casey Foundation.

The foundation produces an annual report, Kids Count Data Book, surveying the well-being of children in the 50 states and ranking the states on 10 core indicators and overall well-being.

The 25th edition of the KIDS COUNT Data Book found that about 23 percent of American children in 2012 were living in families below the poverty line.

Poverty rates in the US, which dropped from 1990 to 2000, saw an increase in the early 2000s, reaching 22 percent in 2010, and remaining about the same level since, the study shows.

Patrick McCarthy, the Annie E. Casey Foundation’s president and CEO, said these low-income families are still struggling to recover from the Great Recession. With fewer resources being available from government programs like Medicaid or Medicare, and higher costs for housing and transportation, poorer families are staying poor.

The report shows that there is a disparity between regions of the country. Southern states tended to do less well on the children’s well-being ratings than Northern states. The five lowest states are Arizona, Louisiana, Nevada, New Mexico and Mississippi, and the top five states are Massachusetts, Vermont, Iowa, New Hampshire and Minnesota.

Latino, African American and Native American groups still suffer more than other ethnic groups and hail from some of the poorest communities and households in the US, McCarthy said.

“Some of the biggest (racial) disparities are in poverty,” McCarthynoted. “Almost half of African American kids are in households where there is no stable income; what we’ve seen is some closure of the gap in education measures…but those numbers are still pretty sobering.”
