The Daily Duck: American "Poverty" = Global "Middle Class"
Reminds me of all those figures showing incomes haven't kept up with inflation. Only someone who completely ignorant of the wider economy would fail to see that (as this) is nonsense on stilts.
And what wasn't mentioned? Welfare reform ...

Hmmm. Y'all don't have trackbacks. For your entertainment, my analysis as to why the poverty rate is overstated is Poverty Poorly Understood.
A couple things. First, the article you linked to is, well, excellent.
Second: despite the likelihood of exposing my ignoramousness, what is trackback?
Wikipedia explains trackback's better than I ever could:
On my blog we use the Haloscan trackback service. Though we haven't had a lot of people using the feature so far...
Thanks for the compliment on the my article. I enjoy the postings over here as well. Indeed, I've added The Daily Duck to the list of links on my Great Guys blog. I figure that'll get you a least one more visitor per year. :-)
