[Rasmussen] 11% Think Government Should Provide Basic Income Grant for All

Rasmussen Reports ^ | 09/01/2011 | Scott Rasmussen

[Gaffer]

Well, I’d take that deal! There are far far more than 11% in this country who get a totally free ride in one fashion or another!

[Logical me]

Talk about rotten sick lazy Americans, this beats the cake. Where in the hell did we inherit this pack of good for nothing communists crap.

[farmguy]

Why is it only be a grant for basic existence. If we are going to do it, let’s do it right. Make it enough to enjoy a life of luxury. To do less would be racist.

I am surprised the # is that low.

These people have the IQ of a turnip

I bet if you ran a poll with questions like...

1. Should all Jewish bankers be throw into gas chambers and then burned in ovens?
2. Should all African Americans be able to have free entry in all white citizens homes to take whatever they want?
3. Should all Christians be forced to worship Satan as a co-redeemer

Sounds outrageous but I guarantee out of 10 Americans today, you could get 1 to agree with 1 or all three of these questions.

'What's the matter with Kansas?' The other 89% are voting against their own best interest!

[Night Hides Not]

My guess is these 11% already get montly income gramts and govment cheese.

My guess is that 100% of those 11% pay zero income tax.

Don't get near that cheese, FRiend. They use it for their nachos, as in "Get away from that! It's nacho cheese!"

Who is John Galt?

[Williams]

It should be the exact opposite. The more you work the better.

[Drango]

Those who rob Peter to pay Paul, will always have the support of Paul.

[556x45]

11% is about 34million people. Clearly they (I hope) polled adults so that number will be smaller. However, its still a big number b/c most of the population (about 75%) is over 18.

[Williams]

These 11% are running the government! Remember Obama’s Constitution of “positive rights”.

[Huskrrrr]

It’s over.

[Williams]

The left is always there, but letting them in control is a catastrophe.

[SoCal Pubbie]

They’re trying!

“They should try Cuba!”

Nonsense. Your wallet ain’t in Cuba.

[Williams]

You will hardly find a court in America which treats the average working stiff as being equal to a bum on welfare. The average person who works and supports a family is viewed as “lucky” and narrow minded. The bum is noble.

[Truth is a Weapon]

Well, I would say that solves the big mystery of where most of the 19% strongly approve statistic is coming from.

[montyspython]

I’m a 100% sure that this 11% paid 0% taxes.

[Williams]

Yes in Childhood’s End they installed a socialist utopia.

Then they killed every man woman and child on Earth, destroyed the planet, and only a tiny elite was allowed to go on.

Leftism in a nutshell.
