“The CSER study identified four major poverty groups within the U.S. The first two groups—one composed of disenfranchised blue-collar workers, the other made up of members of poor rural populations—have been adversely affected by the nation’s gradual shift to a technology-based, global economy. Researchers have dubbed disenfranchised blue-collar workers the Factory Fucked, while members of poor rural populations are called the Farm Fucked. Park characterized the individuals in these two groups as “fucked from the get-go.”
The other two rapidly expanding groups of poor fucks are the suburban poor, whose members can’t afford the rising cost of such basic necessities as healthcare, and the urban underclass, whose members are found in the nation’s troubled inner cities. Researchers termed these groups the Recently Fucked and the Utterly Fucked, respectively.”
