You spent 12 days traveling across the United States, exploring poverty in states as diverse as California and Alabama. By 2020, they will in fact have no one living in extreme poverty, unlike the United States. I think that’s what politics should be all about, and it’s not happening in the United States. I don’t think research is being put into it because who cares if lots of poor people are in prison? I don’t think that it will particularly appreciate being given such a poor report card before the international community.
