These 11 States now haveMore 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.

Percentage (%) of men and women who survived a cancer five years after diagnosis:
U.S. 65%
England 46%
Canada 42%

% of patients diagnosed with diabetes -received treatment within 6 months:
U.S. 93%
England 15%
Canada 43%

% of seniors needing hip replacement who received it within six months:
U.S. 90%
England 15%
Canada 43%

U.S. 77%
England 40%

Number of MRI scanners (a prime diagnostic tool) per million people:
U.S. 71
England 14
Canada 18

% of seniors (65+), with low income, who are in "excellent health":
U.S. 12%
England 2%
Canada 6%

And now…for the last statistic:
National Health Insurance?
U.S. NO
England YES
Canada YES


Check the last set of statistics!!
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.
Here are the percentages.
38% T. Roosevelt
40% Taft
52% Wilson
49% Harding
48% Coolidge
42% Hoover
50% F. D. Roosevelt
50% Truman
57% Eisenhower
30% Kennedy
47% Johnson
53% Nixon
42% Ford
32% Carter
56% Reagan
51% GH Bush
39% Clinton
55% GW Bush
8% Obama

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
