These 10 States now have More People on Welfare than they do Employed!
Last month, the Senate Budget Committee reports that in fiscal year 2012,
between food stamps, housing support, child care, Medicaid and other benefits,
the average U.S. Household below the poverty line received $168.00 a day
in government support. What's the problem with that much support? Well, the
median household income in America is just over $50,000,which averages out
to $137.13 a day. To put it another way, being on welfare now pays the
equivalent of $30.00 an hour for a 40-hour week, while the average job pays
$20.00 an hour.
Furthermore:
There are actually two messages here. The first is very interesting, but
the second is absolutely astounding - and explains a lot. A recent
"Investor's Business Daily" article provided very interesting statistics from
a
survey by the United Nations International Health Organization.
Percentage of men and women who survived a cancer five years after
diagnosis:
U.S. 65%
England 46%
Canada 42%
Percentage of patients diagnosed with diabetes who received treatment
within six months:
U.S. 93%
England 15%
Canada 43%
Percentage of seniors needing hip replacement who received it within six
months:
U.S. 90%
England 15%
Canada 43%
Percentage referred to a medical specialist who see one within one month:
U.S. 77%
England 40%
Canada 43%
Number of MRI scanners (a prime diagnostic tool) per million people:
U.S. 71
England 14
Canada 18
Percentage of seniors (65+), with low income, who say they are in
"excellent health":
U.S. 12%
England 2%
Canada 6%
And now..for the last statistic:
National Health Insurance?
U.S. NO
England YES
Canada YES
Check the last set of statistics!!
The percentage of each past president's cabinet... Who had worked in the
private business sector...prior to their appointment to the cabinet. You
know what the private business sector is; a real-life business...not a
government job.
Here are the percentages.
T. Roosevelt.......... .... 38%
Taft.......................... 40%
Wilson ...................... 52%
Harding..................... 49%
Coolidge.................... 48%
Hoover....................... 42%
F. Roosevelt............... 50%
Truman..................... 50%
Eisenhower............... 57%
Kennedy.................... 30%
Johnson..................... 47%
Nixon......................... 53%
Ford........................... 42%
Carter........................ 32%
Reagan...................... 56%
GH Bush.................... 51%
Clinton ..................... 39%
GW Bush................... 55%
Obama.................... 8%
This helps explain the incompetence of this administration: ONLY 8% of
them ... have ever worked in private business! That's right! Only eight
percent, the least, by far, of the last 19 presidents! And these people are
trying to tell our big corporations how to run their business? How can the
president of a major nation and society, the one with the most successful
economic system in world history, stand and talk about business when he's
never
worked for one? Or about jobs when he has never really had one? And, when
it's the same for 92% of his senior staff and closest advisers? They've
spent most of their time in academia, government, and/or non-profit jobs. Or,
as "community organizers."
Pass this on, because we'll NEVER see these facts in the main stream media.
