It increased the figure from 10% to 15%. Why are you deliberately deflating the figure when it still appears to support your point after removing children?
>I'll give you a hint: 7.5 million is about 20% of 37.3 million.
That figure is the percentage of the poor who work or look for work for at least 27 weeks per year, not the percentage of the poor who do any work or look for work at all. Farm laborers for example could work 50 hour weeks May-October and only hit 25 weeks. And they would be poor.
