“I believe it was on Fox last week during a discussion of how these two faux-Republicans could be repeatedly re-elected, I heard the figure thrown out that 80% of Maine’s population receives some sort of gov’t assistance.”
Not true...not even close to true. Likely what you heard was some talking head exploding. There’s a lot of that going on these days. You know, it occurs to me that if those folks had anything at all constructive to say, they wouldn’t need to try (and fail)to keep their base in line with comments that don’t pass the milk through the nose test.
Any idea of what the actual %age is?
