Answer:
Women represent a larger share of the population living in poverty.
Explanation:
After World War II, a worrying trend became more apparent: <u>women represent a larger share of the population living in poverty in the United States</u>. This is referred to as "feminization of poverty". The causes behind this social phenomenon are thought to lie in the role of women in society: they tend to be at a disadvantage because of work inequality, as women are generally given fewer opportunities and earn lower wages than men; and also, because women tend to carry the burden of household work. The feminization of poverty is especially apparent in single mothers, who carry the double burden of having to care for their children while working to support their families.

In our current system, the people could not directly vote for the regulations. But, the people had the power to appoint the person (representatives) that held their interest.
