1.       $25 an hour or more
2.       You will find some teen moms, drunks, and even some pretty normal people.
3.       Because it’s 98% white people
4.       There is no way to leave this place; it is just like the reservations. Economically, it’s just too difficult.
5.       Of a human animal
6.       People are trading boxes of Pepsi for cash and even food stamps.

The whole fact that there is a white ghetto goes overlooked. Appalachia truly is the closest thing to a third world country that we have. To be in such a hardship to have to trade pop to gather enough to live on, is a travesty. But, it isn’t easily changed; economic hardship will always be here. There is just not enough money to change this area. It always will be a White Ghetto.
