Oh look, they finally noticed:
WASHINGTON — The nation’s poverty rate rose to 12.7 percent of the population last year, the fourth consecutive annual increase, the Census Bureau said Tuesday.
The percentage of people without health insurance did not change.
Overall, there were 37 million people living in poverty, up 1.1 million people from 2003.
What’s a few million here or there? It’s not as if they’re real people.
