I have no idea what the real stats are as far as the "poverty" level in America. However, there has been a lot of jockeying and massaging of the goal posts for what now constitutes "poverty" in America, so there may be a possibility that "on paper" the poster might be right.
However, many people who are labeled as being in "poverty" in the USA live like kings compared to those in poverty in many other places in the world.
