PROMPT:  The article indicates that in the year 2016 the number of households earning less than the Federal Poverty Line ($24, 300 for a family of four or $11,880 for a single adult) represented 10.5% of the population of New Jersey, but that the number of households earning more than the Federal Poverty Line but not enough to afford basic necessities ($74,748 for a family of four or $26,640 for a single adult) represented 28.0% of the population of New Jersey. The households that have incomes above the Federal Poverty Line but are unable to afford basic necessities are called ALICE (Asset Limited, Income Constrained, Employed).

Comment on the disparity between the Federal Poverty Line and the ALICE level.

The households in the ALICE category have one or more adults working to earn an income. What role should the individual, government and other members of society play in addressing the shortfall between the household income and the amount needed to afford basic necessities?

Does the Household Survival Budget detailed in the report seem reasonable to you? Are there other categories of expense that should have been included?
