1) Eating two meals a day instead of three.
2) Having cell phone, cable TV, water and electricity.
3) Having a free public education.
4) Having free emergency health care whenever you need it.
5) Having a car to drive to pick up your free social welfare benefits.

I never said we had no poverty, it's just 100% better to be poor here than in other countries. While I realize it happens, it would be very hard to starve to death in this country.
