What do we think about America ? Is it the dream for many of us? Is it the goal for some of us? Though it is the dreamland for many of us,we should know that Americans have some difficulties to face . A result of study has shown that four out of ten American can not easily afford everything at least their basic needs. They face trouble to pay for their house ,utilities ,food or health care. For its growing economy and low unemployment rate almost 40 percent people of America between 18 and 64 faced atleast one type of problem either for paying rent or paying for health care or paying for anything else.

The result was a surprise for the researcher. Though America is much more updated country, still it is facing serious trouble in many cases. Before the research the researcher only thought about the poor but they didn't think that the American middle class family was leading a tough life also.

Many people are facing the difficulties that the wages are not keeping up with the price of various things. That is from where the trouble beginning. In 2017, 23 percent of American people face difficulty with demand and supply of food. At some point in 2017 they struggled to meet their need for food. Side by side paying for family medical bill was also a problem for 18 percent.

More and more people faced and are still facing problem regarding food securities. That's what is happening in America. Researchers hoped to continue their research annually so that they can track the line of desperation and needs of people and the situation of current America.

So if we think that they are living in complete ease that will be wrong guess. They are in the dreamland but before dreaming it is reality that is knocking at their door.

Unfortunately it's very true. Many have to be on state provided medical assistance or food stamps in order to make it by. The sadder part, it seems acceptable to take these hand outs and live off them without trying to stop. I am one on food stamps and medical assistance, but I work and try my best to provide for my family with our hobby farm to compensate as well as my off farm job. I see many others who get money from the government and make no effort to work. I am deeply saddened by my generation and what they are teaching the next. Laziness and self entitlement. Hard work is something many don't know how to do anymore. Hopefully they'll find a solution that helps.

I also totally understand that some need to be on the assistance because of disability or loss of spouse. It does happen, but those who are capable of working but make no effort...those are abusing the system.

Big country have big problem..

yeah, that's the reason & i think they busy with other country's problem to solve... They don't have much time to think for their people. I think.
