Poverty And Child Health

Leona Said:

Is there any charity that helps prostitutes get out of their profession ?

We Answered:

I know of no organizations that deal with this specifically. Maybe people who care enough to ask this question can make a difference by understanding and pointing toward the solutions. I know there is an answer to this question, but help may not come from a formal charity. It may come from an unexpected source. Charity is more an attribute than an agency. If all you can spare is a quarter, then give it. If you need a dollar, ask the generous for $10.

Catherine Said:

what are some health effects on poverty?

We Answered:

Many: start with diabetes
poverty usually has poor food so all sorts of diet related problems appear and damage to the liver as a result (acetone breath is one symptom).
Leprosy is more common in other nations amongst the poor
Various kinds of parasites, mostly worms, tapeworms, flukes, trichinosis etc
Poor diet means a lot of people do not have the foods to stave off the diseases they get.

Kay Said:

Considering children without health insurance, children in poverty, why is gay marriage a more pressing issue?

We Answered:

We're icky, we're all shameless skanks, we corrupt children and we want to take over the world!

Like, duh!

;)

EDIT: Oh crap, I almost forgot. We also want to teach your children how to have gay sex at school. Man, how could I leave that one out! I mean, that's like number 1 on my Atheist/Liberal/Lesbian/Devil Agenda.

Brad Said:

Isn't it obvious that sending American jobs overseas has led to child poverty?

We Answered:

More jobs were outsourced during the Bush era than during any other time in history. YES, the time when big business was getting the biggest tax breaks.

Sad. Even huge tax breaks couldn't keep jobs here.

Discuss It!
