Poverty: The condition in which a person lacks the essentials for a minimum standard of life including food, safe drinking water, sanitation, shelter, health care and basic education.

That's from .50 cents a day in the most undeveloped nations to $20.00 a day in the most.

2% of the richest people n the world own more than 1/2 the planet.
More than 2 Billion people in the world cannot afford to feed and properly take care of their families.
854 Million face starvation.
25 Million live below the poverty line in Eastern Europe. 36 Million in the U.S. 60 Million in Latin America, 300 Million in Africa, And in Asia, 1 Billion people.

That is ridiculoussly sad.
1/2 of the world's population live on less than $2.00 a day!

Why is this not an issue in the coming presidential elections??
