> These 9 States now have more people on Welfare than
they do employed!!!
> Last month, the Senate Budget Committee reports
that in fiscal year 2012, between food stamps, housing support, child care,
Medicaid and other benefits, the average U.S. Household below the poverty
line received $168.00 a day in government support. What's the problem
with that much support? Well, the median household income in America
is just over $50,000, which averages out to $137.13 a day.
> To
put it another way, being on welfare now pays the equivalent of $30.00 an
hour for 40 hour week, while the average job pays $20.00 an
hour.
> Furthermore: There are actually two messages
here. The first is very interesting, but the second is absolutely
astounding - and explains a lot.
> A recent "Investor's Business
Daily" article provided very interesting statistics from a survey by the
United Nations International Health Organization.

> The
percentage of each past president's cabinet... Who had worked in the private
business sector... Prior to their appointment to the cabinet. You know
what the private business sector is ~ a real-life business... Not a
government job.

> This helps explain the incompetence of this
administration: ONLY 8% of them... Have ever worked in private
business! That's right! Only eight percent ~ the least, by far,
of the last 19 presidents!
> And these people are trying to tell
our big corporations how to run their business? How can the president
of a major nation and society, the one with the most successful economic
system in world history, stand and talk about business when he's never
worked for one? Or about jobs when he has never really had one?
And, when it's the same for 92% of his senior staff and closest
advisers?
> They've spent most of their time in academia,
government, and/or non-profit jobs. Or... As "community
organizers."
> Pass this on, because we'll NEVER see these
facts... in the main stream media!!!
> "Socialism is a
philosophy of failure, the creed of ignorance, and the gospel of envy.
Its inherent virtue is the equal sharing of misery." ~Winston
Churchill
