What your country can do for you?
What? What was that subliminal democrat message of 64 years ago.
It’s too late.
The only way America survives is a massive die-off of human sponges.
Europe will go first, though.
Good point. For example, I am employed by a hospital chain. About half of the income of the hospitals consists of Medicare payments. About 20% consists of Medicaid payments. So about 70% of my paycheck comes from government spending.
The government has their tentacles into many areas of the economy, no doubt about it.

RE: Welfare is NOT Social Security benefits, Medicare, retirement pensions and the like.
TRUE, but if you consider what they’ve done with all of the above, the financial situation of this country is even worse...
ALL of the above are RUNNING OUT OF MONEY. Nothing was investment, all spent and all we have are IOUs and empty promises for the future.
“Welfare is NOT Social Security benefits, Medicare,”
If you get more than you ever paid, it is welfare.
Not by my definition.
Makers produce and contribute in so many ways. Takers are leeches and parasites. To claim that some 90 year old retiree is a welfare moocher would be incorrect.
Welfare is an abuse of the system.
I’m at the point where I think a culling of our parasitic herd wouldn’t be such a bad idea.
We “make” so little here anymore. We all are dependent one way or the other. We are so screwed.
