Poverty In America!!

I talk to a lot of people every week and I allways find it interesting to just pick on things of interest. Usually it starts out light and never gets much in depth but lately the thing that is most on everyones mind is jobs and the economy. The fact that according to the Cnn Money most Americans have seen wages frozen while prices of everything has risen to a all time higher level. This reported by the Census Beaureau that the meadium income of average Americans has dropped to a average of $22,000 means that more Americans are losing the American dream of home ownership and sending the next generation to college. Poverty is spreading into the older gernerations where it once really existed to only a very small extent and now is rapidly becoming the normal way of life instead of the exception to the rule of life. These people who once were very wealthy and now find that most or all the saving that they had is gone and are falling through the cracks of life into a endless nothing. The lack of jobs and basic services is sending more people over the edge into dire poverty that is harder to get out because of the lack of help available to the under or unemployed. We have a double standard in which the wealthy get more benifits but the poor get taxed more and burdened by more goverment regulations. This hurts the bottom tear of people who have allready can not afford even a cup of coffee in a country that is the richest on earth. The poor in this country have no where to turn to when the bottom falls out of the economy and since they have little to no savings they are the first ones to feel the economic pain. Then you add on top of it that basically most of the poor working a have a minimum wage job can not even a average apartment of $600.00 a month rental let alone even buying or renting a house it leaves most to people to turn to goverment funded programs to survive. The more I have talked to people the picture I get from them is one of total disapproval of what is happening in America with the economy but many good ideas on how to solve the current ecomnomic woes. The second thing is that most have been forced to quit work or have given up on it all together on finding a good paying job and have in order to survive they have become dependent on goverment programs such as SSDI and SSI and GPA which have forced them to be more dependent reluctantly and not want to better themselves. The unemployed and working poor have no voice in America anymore like they used to have with unions and employment training programs of the past in which helped put people back to work and being self sufficent. Most of these avenues of the poor people in America that once were funded programs have been shut off more recently because of the lack of funding for these graet programs. This has caused a lot of pain in terms of overall health and longevity due to lack of basic services available to them. We are also a country of aging popluation that is both more dependent on government services and less able to pay for basic needs that is what it is to live at the bottom of the economic spectrum for most poeple in the last 30 years. If you live a average life in America you are one of the lucky ones but then chances are you know many other people have not got all the comforts of even a home as you do and that is unfortunately what as a great country we have come to being about in the 21 century..
