Not a particularly well written article. But President Trump forges ahead.

I’m glad he’s doing this. But I have one sticking point with this article:

“The economy is on fire like never before.” THREE FRICKIN’ PERCENT GROWTH IS ON FIRE LIKE NEVER BEFORE??? WHAT PLANET IS HE ON???

Also, a lot of these companies are still competing for H1-B Third Worlders, not Americans, IMO.

Rant over

The gvt is working hard to replace the name “food stamps” with the name SNAP (Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program). It will always be food stamps to me.

That map makes it look like he’s going after Native Americans and all the meth heads in VA as well as the uneducated and rural in our southern states.

I wish the focus would be on entrenched, northern BLUE Democrat enclaves, instead.

Not a SINGLE County in CA makes this map? Hard to believe!

First thing that jumped out at me, too!

Milwaukee and Dane Counties in WI have a HUGE number of freeloaders.

Something isn’t adding up, here.

That little red bit in Southern Illinois is Alexander County. County seat is Cairo, IL. You might want to do a street view of Cairo to get an idea of what it’s like. Or google Cairo Public Housing to see what life is like there.

Looks like a lot of those counties are sparsely populated counties with a large percentage of American Indians.

Among the top 20 states that GET more than they GIVE, almost all are southern and Midwestern.

NY gives more than it gets.

So does CA i’m pretty sure

The south and Midwest can be patriotic but were paying the bills :)

“Not a SINGLE County in CA makes this map? Hard to believe!”

Not hard to believe if you cherry pick the data. Those are very low population counties and though the % may be high the absolute numbers are tiny. If you were to add up their population it would be less than the welfare recipients in any one of the large cesspools run by the Rats.

That might have something to do with the "TANF" program (whatever that is) they're targeting.

Just so everyone knows. Food stamps by any name is a farm subsidy administered by the Dept. of Agriculture.

TANF: Temporary Assistance to Needy Families. Horribly abused.

The map reflects the highest percentage of people on SNAP, not the most in sheer numbers.

Interesting map. Looks like most of the Top 100 Counties are Indian Reservations in Montana, N Dakota, S Dakota, Colorado, New Mexico and Arizona. Then there is Appalaichia where coal job losses have been devastating and the deep South.

I am shocked that none of the top Dem controlled metro areas are in the Top 100.

Bingo! I observed the same thing - Indians, Appalachia (coal job losses) and the deep south. Where are the Dem-entrenched metro areas? That’s what needs to be cleaned out.
