What a misleading headline!
> Four out of 5 U.S. adults struggle with joblessness, near poverty or reliance on welfare for at least parts of their lives, a sign of deteriorating economic security and an elusive American dream.

80% of people encountering poverty at some point in their lives is still too many-- poverty needs to be so thoroughly eliminated throughout the world that we don't even remember any words for it.

I'm not blaming you, that's how the article was written.

Honestly I don't expect the plain truth from most media outlets. They have their designated audiences, and they know it.
