The Scope of Business at the Base of the Pyramid: Poverty in the U.S. and Other OECD Countries
內容大綱
Using data from U.S. Census and OECD, the note defines poverty as those populations who fall below 50% of that country's median per capita income. It then provides a brief statistical tour of six key challenges facing such populations: Income and Jobs, Healthcare, Education, Affordable Housing, Financial Inclusion, and Incarceration. The note then provides a brief overview of the social safety net programs in the U.S. that are meant to address the identified challenges. It then concludes with a brief statistical tour of the rest of the OECD countries with respect to similar deprivations.
