minus-square☆ Yσɠƚԋσʂ ☆linkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up5arrow-down5·1 year agowhy would you expose yourself like that If we take just one country, China, out of the global poverty equation, then even under the $1.90 poverty standard we find that the extreme poverty headcount is the exact same as it was in 1981. The $1.90/day (2011 PPP) line is not an adequate or in any way satisfactory level of consumption; it is explicitly an extreme measure. Some analysts suggest that around $7.40/day is the minimum necessary to achieve good nutrition and normal life expectancy, while others propose we use the US poverty line, which is $15.
Believing that capitalism lifts people out of poverty.
