Much of my “income” comes from my V.A. disability, yet I’m not voting for Hillary.
I am not strictly talking about the those who collect benefits. And I am certainly not generalizing when it comes to individuals. But I am generalizing when it comes to shear numbers of voters. When you add up all those who do collect benefits (including Vets) of any kind as well as government employees and contract employees that work for the government, it will be hard to get them to vote for issues that include reducing government spending.
All in, more than 50% of humans living in the US NEED the government. Couple that with the liberal elite that WANT the bigger government, and we are really outnumbered.
