新西兰的孩子再贫穷,上学不要钱,看病不要钱,看牙不要钱,坐车不要钱……
What is the best poverty line to use?
To give some idea of actual dollars represented by incomes at the three poverty lines, as shown in
table 2.4 below, at 50% of median income (moving line), a sole parent with 1 child would have just
$446 per week BHC, and $336 per week AHC in 2011. The dollar income for a sole parent with 1
child is $536 BHC, and $404 AHC on the 60% moving line; and on the 60% fixed line, $488 BHC and
$367 AHC in 2011 dollars. Many beneficiaries would find that their actual housing costs would push
them well below the 60% AHC line (Perry 2011 p. 84).
Table 2.4 Weekly income, sole parent, one child, at three poverty lines
2011 income (2011 dollars) Sole parent, one child
50% median income (moving line) BHC $446
50% median income (moving line) AHC $336
60% median income (moving line) BHC $536
60% median income (moving line) AHC $404
60% median income (fixed line) BHC $488
60% median income (fixed line) AHC $367
Internationally there is increased recognition that the role of housing must be taken into account in
determining who is in poverty. The Human Rights Commission has also recently affirmed that it will
track certain measures to assess progress toward the desired outcomes or improvements in welfare
and well-being. The extent of child poverty will be monitored by using the two (60% of median after
housing costs) income poverty lines, one relative and one absolute as described in Figure 2.5. This
reinforces the use of the 60% median income AHC poverty line as the semi-official poverty line in
New Zealand.
CPAG believes the relative, 60% AHC poverty measurement, provides the best basis for examining
the position of the poorest in relation to the rest of the community, a critical consideration in looking
at poverty levels. However, it is necessary also to monitor fixed-value line 60% AHC poverty as any
worsening on this measure means that there are more families who are not only relatively worse off but
are also worse off in absolute terms. Furthermore however, counting children below a particular level
of income as ‘in poverty’ needs to be supported with independent data on current living standards.
我终于明白了,中国政府为了让这些孩子将来有学上、能吃饱饭,现在必须把人送上月亮……
