What constitues 'poor'?

Published on October 9, 2004 By dharmagrl In Current Events

There's been a lot of talk about 'the poor' around here lately...actually, it's been an on-going thing.

I'd like to know what people's opinion of 'poor' is.

Are you 'poor' if you don't have a big screen TV? How about a car that's less than 5 years old? Cable? Internet service? Are you 'poor' if you buy your clothes at Goodwill or thrift stores as opposed to JC Penny's and Sears? Does 'poor' mean that you eat macaroni and cheese every night instead of steak or chicken?

What is your definition of 'poor'?
