Writing by Dr. Dannielle Blumenthal

We just are returning from vacation in Daytona Beach and the county where the hotel is is not a wealthy county and the minimum wage um pretty low. A lot of people working minimum wage jobs. So we get a car service to the airport, and the driver barely has enough gas to get us there. Mentions that they went to the gas station just before picking us up, but obviously can’t afford the gas. The problem in this country, in the United States, is poverty. Real grinding. Daily poverty. That’s what we need to address urgently.
