[ ...reply just to this | comment on the story... | next new ] 103. non fiction Recheck your math & history by Catch22 at Thu 1 Sep 7:00amscore of 1 in reply to comment 31 The US has slipped since 2000, but that slip is, put into historical context, quite small. It non fiction took some time, but part of the problem is the census bureau information is not presented in a fashion that shows the true nature of the change over the last 4 years. In comment 63 I noted the non fiction dozen states that had the largest net change in poverty, but realized even that understated the change. In Kentucky the poverty rate is 40% higher in 2004 than 2000. South Carolina Poverty is 34% higher Mississippi Poverty is 25% higher Alabama Poverty is 27% higher Kansas Poverty is 43% higher Michgan Poverty is 34% higher Indiana Poverty is 36% higher Missouri Poverty is 33% higher Wisonsin Poverty is 32% higher Arizona Poverty is 23% higher Pennsylvania Poverty is 31% higher South Dakota Poverty is 25% higher Nationally the poverty rate is over 12% higher in 2004 than it was in 2000.
