The word "poverty" is bothersome. In the western world you hear about our "poverty" rates and then you see the people in poverty and they have iPhones, and ps4, and most of them are overweight. Not at all what most of us think of when we think of the word "poverty"

Many media sources and politicians exploit the word "poverty".

We imagine starving kids in Somalia when we hear the word "poverty". and they know it.
