David,
The real question to David is simple – do 60 million Americans live on $7 or less a day or not? You claim to be an highly esteemed journalist, and a trained economist – so by your estimation, what is the ACTUAL number of Americans who’s income is less than $7 a day?
BTW, quick question – if I am a rich guy, who owns 10 factories, and who actually lost 100 million dollars in a particular year – would he be counted as a person who lives on less than $7 a day on that year based on your article?
Lastly, David, would you provide a much more accurate estimation on the number of Americans who SPENT less than $7 dollars a day annually?
