Why can’t the US eradicate poverty?
By José M. López Sierra – Puerto Rico

The United States (US) will never eradicate poverty, because its government only represents the 3% of its citizens who are employers.
That is why 40 million Americans today live in poverty, and 201 million more live from paycheck to paycheck. The People’s Republic of China, however, eradicated poverty in 2020, despite having 4 times the US’ population. And that is why over 90% of Chinese are satisfied with their government, while only 35% of Americans are satisfied with theirs.
That is why the US started its proxy war in Ukraine in order to steal the Russian Federation’s resources.
That is why the US is unconditionally supporting the genocide against the indigenous people of Palestine against international law.
And, that is why, although claiming to be the champion of democracy, the US has consistently refused to comply with 42 United Nations’ (UN) resolutions demanding the immediate return of Puerto Rico’s sovereignty to the Puerto Ricans. And in the meantime, 6 million Puerto Ricans have abandoned their national territory (gentrification), and half of the 3 million people in Puerto Rico live in poverty. This year’s UN Puerto Rico decolonization hearing will be on Monday, June 16, 2025.
Unless 97% of Americans change their government, the US will remain an empire now, tomorrow and forever..
It’s the US Empire stupid!
