Poverty...In A Place That Is Green...and Humid
It is said that New Mexico is the poorest state in the nation currently, and with our university tuitions rising along with our temperatures, it is refreshing to see some sources that say New Hampshire is at the top. However, it might be nice to see some solutions for poor states. 1. Create jobs. 2. Raise the minimum wage. 3. Raise the Earned Income Tax Credit for people who do not have children. 4. Support pay equality and provide sick days.
