AEI has a piece on poverty in America and precisely what that means. It is impossible to deny that the standard of living for all Americans has risen in the last 30 or 40 years. The things that were once luxuries are viewed as necessities. Imagine buying a house w/o central air, color tv (let alone cable) etc.

There are poor people in America it's just that many of them are better off than they were a generation ago. Even if they're still poor.
