Correct. Poverty as once understood meant lacking in the areas of food, shelter, clothing. For the most part, even predominantly so, these &quot;poor&quot; children do not lack for any of that? So what is &quot;poor&quot; then?]]></description>

We need a new definition of poverty.  I suspect most all these kids are well fed, clothed, sheltered, and have access to the web. 

Again, drearily so, we see that diversity has become something that is imposed from above.  Left alone, people tend to self segregate.

Today&#039;s theme is of the mad social scientist, madly mixing people and failed central state policies to bring terror to civilization.]]></description>
