  21. Measuring Poverty • In the U.S., the poverty threshold is a historical artifact, based on a 1964 study that found that households spent 1/3 of their income on food, on average. • The 1964 poverty line was 3 times the cost of the “thrifty” food basket. • Since then, it has been adjusted according to increases in the cost of living • Several proposals to change this measure to take into account both differential costs and benefits available in various regions of the country.
