If you can pay your bills on time and live a decent home, you are above the poverty threshold. If what you are making at work, doesn't pay all your bills and give you a decent place to live, you are living below the poverty threshold. In this country that is about $15.00 per hour (average). Working for most burger joints for $7.75 per hour doesn't do it.
