Answer:D. The fact that the U.S. wastes 100 billion pounds of food each year.

Explanation: All other options are persuasive and valuable to speak about the poverty in the United States except for the last point that talks about food wastages.

About 500,000 persons enter the U.S. each year causing an increase in the population which is a contributing factor to poverty, a statistics showing the poverty about 10.6% as at 2019,level is valuable and persuasive,the ways the average U.S citizens can help to alleviate poverty is also valuable and persuasive.
