In 1995, 13% of the population were living below the poverty line. In 2010, 15.1% were living below the poverty line. Did the #PRWORA & #TANF really fix anything? #BasicIncome4Thought

Do you think basic income could help eliminate the number of people living on the streets in the United States?

Don't forget your neighbors in the cold this holiday season. Look up your local emergency winter shelters.

Bill Hicks was an interesting man who did stand up comedy. The majority of the substance of his talks was politically oriented. I think this statement he made in the early 90's speaks directly towards our poverty problem.

Invite your neighbor to dinner, deliver some meals within your community, contact local agencies and look for methods of getting involved.
Change can always start with you.
Happy Thanksgiving! #betheblessing

Education is the key. Read up on #PRWORA and #TANF. Do you think these policies are working? The change starts with you.

Hi friends! This potential presidential candidate is interested in proposing different ideas. This will not necessarily be a part of a presidential platform. The point is that we need to find innovative ideas to support our people and prevent further escalations in poverty.

The 2020 election is coming faster than you think!
Make sure that all people are being represented and cared for.

Bernie Sanders introduced a bill that would prevent large companies from buying back stock unless they pay at least $15/hour, allow workers to earn up to 7 days of paid sick leave and limit CEO compensation to no more than 150 times staffers' median pay https://t.co/zLmapkuWLA

The pervasiveness of poverty impacts individuals and families. It prevents them from obtaining feasible employment opportunities, as well as maintaining a good quality of life.
