PERCENT OF CHILDREN IN POVERTY

Wow!!! 32 percent in DC. This should be unacceptable.

55 percent in PR!!! Not a State yet, but this is still amazing. And to think that there are a good amount of people in PR that do not want to become part of the USA. Not that it is a bad thing to want to do it on your own and have your own, separate identity.

CA = 18%!!!

Here is a shocker. Only 80 percent of California's "adults" have a HS "diploma."

Here is a link for the employment ratio. One could look at this and conclude that only 70 (really 75) percent of adults are employed. This might give a different impression than the reported national unemployment rate, which excludes those that have stopped looking or parents that stay home like me.

CA = 73%! Not bad!
