"about 37 million Americans lived below the poverty line in 2004: $19,157 a year for a family of four. An additional 54 million lived between the poverty line and double the poverty line: $38,314 for a family of that size." And according to Elroy, they make far too much money. Well, they make a hell of a lot more than numerous families of four around the world. They should be thankful for how good they got it, and how much better they got it than probably 85% - 90% of the many families of four around the world. I never said that we Americans make too much, and never wished that we would make less, but compared to the rest of the planet, we do make a lot.... God bless America! :-)
