What is the difference between squalor and want ??. Do they both mean poverty??. Thanks in advance.

Having only read some of Full Employment in a Free Society, "want" is lack of life necessities (food, shelter, fuel, so on) and is what the unemployment insurance should help secure every person is free of on the personal plan. Squalor is overcrowding, bad health, lousy housing, and reads like bad infrastructure and poor planning on a macro-level. Or something like that ;) Poulsen 05:49, 6 September 2006 (UTC)

dunno m8! intresting topic though


There should be a disambiguation page distinguishing this William Beveridge from the other William Beveridge who was a bishop in the Church of England. Obviously Bishop Beveridge also needs his own page.--132.206.203.3 20:52, 7 July 2006 (UTC)cp

[edit] Shabby

This article about Baron Beveridge is shabby at best. I will try to systematically update it over the next few days. Mornington 16:56, 10 August 2007 (UTC)
