American fans got "To Hell With Poverty" on Another Day/Another Dollar, a 12-inch EP that Warner Bros. put out in the US in 1982 to round up Gang of Four material that hadn't been released there yet. The credits read like a band at full strength: Jon King on vocals, Andy Gill on guitar, Dave Allen on bass and Hugo Burnham on drums, all four sharing the writing credit, with Gill and King producing alongside Nick Launay.
It found a more permanent home later, when all five tracks from the EP were folded into the 1995 CD reissue of the band's 1981 album Solid Gold.
