Supposedly, the nonworking could work but ________. ___________, however, the line between the working and nonworking poor does not mean a great deal, since families cross it often, as breadwinners gain or lose employment.

Answer 1

Answer:

In politics, the distinction between the working and the nonworking poor is not just about those who have jobs and those who do not, but about those who deserve help versus those who don’t. Supposedly, the nonworking could work but choose not to. Sociologically, however, the line between the working and nonworking poor does not mean a great deal, since families cross it often, as breadwinners gain or lose employment.

Explanation:

The reason is that the politics which is the science of governing a country, says that the poor is not the one who doesn't have any job because rich people usually have their own business which earns millions of dollars and the owners don't bother whether the profit has grown or has decreased from the previous year. So the poor is the one who needs help whether he is working or not because during recession period many middle class families usually fall below the middle class family benchmark.

Furthermore, this distinction line is often crossed by families if the breadwinner who pays the utility bills, rentals, food expenses, fees, etc gets jobless. So this distinction line is not that useful as deemed. It is also harder for the researcher to define help.
