Lack of high school predicts likely poverty

According to Wirtz  "Stay in school. The longer you do, the more likely you'll stay out of poverty. Failing to graduate from high school is about the surest ticket a person has to poverty. There are about 190 million people in the United States over the age 25, and about 19 million are in poverty."
