Answer to q. 4

Families, and especially children, have borne a disproportionate burden of the recent economic failures. After tremendous strides in family economic well-being throughout the 1990s, the 2000s have seen a steady decline. Additionally, the number of children living below the poverty line has risen throughout the decade and is projected to continue to rise. Minority families and female-only households have been the hardest hit.

C

Answer to q. 6

Recent changes to welfare and other social policies that have a mandatory work component as well as deep cuts to social services for families have dramatically increased the number of food insecure households. Those are households characterized by some level of need for food. At its most severe, households with very low food security, approximately 5.7 of the U.S. population, alter their diets or skip meals due to lack of food.
