📖 Description
Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. The lack of basic human needs such as clean water, nutritious food, affordable health care, basic education, and livable shelter is known as poverty. The poverty threshold established the minimum amount of salary required to afford the very basic needs. Poverty includes homelessness which is the inability to afford an adequate dwelling.
This book explores the definitions and measurements of poverty, the effects, the working poor, and the poverty trap. Also included is a specific focus on the newly homeless due to loss of employment, foreclosure, and the discrimination against the homeless.
