That, my FRiend, is a load of horse hockey. This goes far, far deeper than Chris Christie's embrace of Obama for doing his job and such scape goating does nothing to remedy the problem.
This is a manifestation of an American populace who have collectively decided that dependence on government is preferable to industry and self-reliance. It is a manifestation (inevitable) of 60 years of welfare, Medicare, and Medicaid. It is a manifestation of Pell grants and other forms of middle class welfare. It is a manifestation of our changing demographics in which white, hard-working men and women of faith and traditional lifestyle will no longer determine the direction in which this nation moves . . . and it is the death knell of our Republic.
I wish you were right, but I fear that we have now crossed our national Rubicon and will not again cross it until we have "enjoyed" the dubious pleasures of Euro-socialism.
May God bless us and have mercy upon us all, for we are all sure to need his help.

It is a manifestation (inevitable) of 60 years of welfare, Medicare, and Medicaid. And open borders.
If it's true that the white birth rate is going down, while minority birth rates are going up, it's the open borders that's where the growth in votes is coming from.
It's probably not as much a shift from producers to takers, but an uncontrolled influx of new takers.

Correct. As far as the majority of americans are concerned, free shit and the illusion that the government will take care of them trumps liberty every time.
