Poverty in America: Special report

http://english.pravda.ru/business/finance/15-09-2011/119059-america_poverty-0/

If inflation was still calculated the way that it was 30 or 40 years ago, the poverty line would be much, much higher and millions more Americans would be considered to be living in poverty.
