Earth, Air, Fire, Water

The phrase cannot live without reminds me of must have fashion ads.

Life is real. Air to breathe. Water to drink. Food to eat. Shelter. Heat in the cold. 
Luxuries: hot and cold running water, any kitchen or cleaning appliance, a motor vehicle, or even a bicycle.

The United States ranks near the bottom of the pack of wealthy nations on a measure of child poverty, according to a new report from UNICEF. Nearly one third of U.S. children live in households with an income below 60 percent of the national median income in 2008 - about $31,000 annually. Washington Post goo.gl/5QrWye

Child poverty in America is at its highest point in 20 years, putting millions of children at increased risk of injuries, infant mortality, and premature death, according to a policy analysis published Monday in the journal JAMA Pediatrics.
As the U.S. emerges from the worst recession since the Great Depression, 25% of children don’t have enough food to eat and 7 million kids still don’t have health insurance, the analysis says. Even worse: Five children die daily by firearms, and one dies every seven hours from abuse or neglect. LATimes  http://goo.gl/REkRld
