Consider this. Poverty, if based on reported income is 12.3%. Poverty, if based on reported spending is 3.7%. This speaks to a huge element of welfare fraud and the underground economy.

@cspanwj "The Census Bureau considers only “money income” each family reports in an annual survey. These official “money income” figures omit roughly 95 percent of the $1.1T U.S. taxpayers provide in means-tested cash, food, housing, and medical benefits for low-income people each year.

@cspanwj In fact, poor families routinely report spending an average of $2.40 for every dollar of official “money income.”
