This is upsetting. I think I read Arizona's poverty level is one of the worst in the country.

It is. Here's a recent article: http://cronkitenewsonline.com/2011/09/arizona-poverty-levels-among-highest-in-nation-census-figures-show/
18.6% of the population here is at or below poverty line. I also found it disturbing that such a high percentage of Arizonans are without health insurance.
