[Fatatatutti]

We don't "define poverty". Everybody in Fatatatutti is eligible for a guaranteed annual income, ehich should provide for his/her basic needs. There are also ample soup kichens and food banks, both private and government sponsored, as well as shelters and hostels. There is no need for anybody in Fatatatutti to "live in poverty". That's a relic of uncivilized nations.

Some people do choose the "simple life" - e.g. beach bums. Everybody is free to choose his/her own lifestyle.
