11 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 a 40-hour week, while

the average job pays $25.00 an hour.






Bottom line is, our country is in a real mess and soon we won’t be able to turn it around.
