I was charmed (albeit somewhat perplexed) by the fannish sensibility of many of the music choices -- it's like the director was trying to vid Canada. --loligo on the Olympic Opening Ceremonies

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
"Most" people in the world. Not each person.
1. World? You think it holds for all those country with a much lower cost of living than the US? So many places I could be living like a raucous king on $30K, relatively speaking.

Anyway, even assuming a varying cost of living in different places in the US, there's still a federal poverty line that doesn't count any of that in the lower 48. [link] So that single person making less than $10K will still get way more benefit from the grand than I'm hurt by losing it.
