How does SAIPE compare to other estimates of poverty and income produced by the U.S. Census Bureau?

The U.S. Census Bureau reports income and poverty estimates from several major national household surveys and programs: the Annual Social and Economic Supplement to the Current Population Survey (CPS ASEC), the American Community Survey (ACS), the Survey of Income and Program Participation, Census 2000 Long Form, and the Small Area Income and Poverty Estimates Program (SAIPE). Each of these surveys differs from the others in some ways, such as the length and detail of its questionnaire, the number of households included (sample size), and the methodology used to collect and process the data. The SAIPE program uses data from a variety of sources, to create statistical models to produce income and poverty estimates.

It is important to understand that different surveys and methods, which are designed to meet different needs, may produce different results. For more information about the various surveys, please see: http://www.census.gov/hhes/www/poverty/about/datasources/description.html. ... more.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
