Poverty is a percentage, not an absolute measure. It will never be eliminated as long as there is a distribution of income.

It's not a specific percentage because it does fluctuate (not going to look up what it's based on just now), but effectively it will never be eliminated. This is precisely my point to the original poster who postulated that increases in worker productivity were making it easier to support those not working.
