Well, yes. Because the only way to eliminate poverty using a relative measure is to eliminate all differences between household incomes (after living expenses).

Rather than that, some structures in place that permits more social (or at least, economic) mobility would be a much better way of addressing the problem, rather than top-down enforcement of total equality (which doesnt work).
