Can A College Education Cut the Risk of Living in Poverty?

Can university education reduce the risk of living in poverty? As the US recently fell into recession in December 2007, the number of the poor increased dramatically. The rise in unemployment, health benefits and living costs has influenced the countries and citizens who are striving to avoid poverty. In such a competitive environment, university education can increase self-worth and opportunities. Due to increased poverty, unemployment and loss of medical care, the current recession in the United States has a serious impact on the United States.

Education affects the type of work an individual receives. In fact, as the educational level goes down, the risk of poverty increases. In 28 countries of the European Union in 2015 (see Figure 4), about 52.3% of children (0-17 years old) are accepted by parents of the same family at the highest level of education, junior high school level (0-2 "international education Level classification (IGC) is at risk of poverty compared to 8.1% (5 to 8 ISCED) of parents receiving higher education In children in the 28 countries, children with background of immigration are children Children with home-grown parents are more likely to fall into poverty (14.8 pp higher) (see data sources and availability) Sweden ( + 27.9 pp), Denmark (+ 27.6 pp), Greece (+ 27.3 pp) record the biggest difference between foreigners and local parents' children

In 2012, one was surprisingly poor at 3.2 adults (27 to 66 years old) without a high school diploma. One of 6.5 high school graduates who do not have university lives in poverty. Compared to high school graduates who have not graduated from college, the incidence of poverty is 27% lower than those who graduated from college but do not have a degree. The pupils of the Associate Degree hold only half of the high school graduates. Those who have a bachelor 's degree but who have not acquired a high degree have a 3.5 - fold lower possibility of living in poverty. Clearly, the achievement of the university greatly reduces the risk of low income

Poverty in life has serious negative consequences for children. Poverty is associated with a decline in the graduation rate and high disease risk. Poverty makes admission to the university more difficult and adversely affects the development of the brain. This budget is not meant to support programs that protect children from the devastating effects of poverty. Instead, I am pushing back my children to an increasingly unbalanced competitive environment.
