Question

Poor people who regularly move in and out of poverty are called _______.

• A. usually poor
• B. churning poor
• C. chronic poor
• D. occasionally poor

Answer 1

The correct option is B churning poor

There are many ways to categorise poverty. In one such way people who are always poor and those who are usually poor but who may sometimes have a little more money are grouped together as the chronic poor. The occasionally poor are rich most of the time but may sometimes have a patch of bad luck.

Churning poor regularly move in and out of poverty like, small farmers and seasonal workers.
