Poverty is not being able to afford to give your children Chritsmas presents, not being able to pay for their spare time activeties, not being able to feed them the food they need to grow up healthy. That's poverty, and that's a very common thing in the US. Just because it's not how you live, doesn't mean it's not reality for millions of people.
