Poverty kills United States children


This video is called Child Poverty Has Risen to 16 Million in the United States of America.

Another video from the USA which used to be on the Internert used to say about itself:

When it comes to Americans without health insurance, many of them are children. But in a surprising twist, many of those uninsured children are from families where at least one parent does have health insurance.

Here’s a somewhat surprising result from the new Fox News poll. Asked which president is “more responsible for the current state of the economy,” only 18 percent say President Obama. Fifty-eight percent say former President George W. Bush. Nine percent blame both of them. Republicans are the only subgroup of voters who blame Obama, and only by a six-point margin of 35 percent to 29 percent: here.

    They obtained their findings by following a “natural experiment,” in which a certain percentage of the families of 1,420 children living in western North Carolina changed their income levels midway through the study.

    When the study began, the researchers tested psychiatric symptoms in the children, 68 per cent of whom were living in poverty – then repeated the tests every year for 8 years. – APP
