In all seriousness. . .

Name: Joe
Age: 3
Parents: Dead
Lives with relatives and three siblings in a one room cinder block "house" on $20/month (for all of them).
Sleeps on a mat on concrete regardless of weather.
Electricity none.
Running water none.
Eats some corn mash . . . every day for food.

And unlike the vast majority of Americans, in addition to real hardship, there is very limited opportunity.
