updates: The poverty level and poverty rate are incomplete measures of economic need. The cost of a basket of basic necessities is a more relevant benchmark. Across all family structures, 59% and 66% of Black and Hispanic families, respectively, have resources that fall short of basic family budgets, versus 37% of white families. Single-parent families are disproportionately Black and Hispanic. 43% of all families in the US fall short of meeting basic needs. For families of color, the true 'poverty' rate is higher than reported. Families cope by scrimping on necessities, going into debt, and juggling bills. Modest policy measures are unlikely to be effective, and targeted income supports are needed. The US can afford to address these shortfalls. The poverty rate was 11.5% in 2022. The official poverty lines are pitifully low and do not vary by location. The Economic Policy Institute has assembled family budgets that cover basic necessities for different family structures in every county in the US. The cost of necessities far exceeds the poverty level for every family category in every county. Private corporations earned over $2.6 trillion in profits in 2022, and taxes worth $688 billion remained non-filed, underpaid, or underreported in 2021. [9364d7a3]
