Most Americans on Gov't Dole


This is scary! From NewsMax:

Slightly over half of all Americans – 52.6 percent – now receive significant income from government programs, according to an analysis by Gary Shilling, an economist in Springfield, N.J. That's up from 49.4 percent in 2000 and far above the 28.3 percent of Americans in 1950. If the trend continues, the percentage could rise within ten years to pass 55 percent, where it stood in 1980 on the eve of President's Reagan's move to scale back the size of government.

It also explains why it's so hard to fight the encroachment of socialism today: most people are already benefiting from it and don't want to give up their gravy train.

How far we've fallen from the independent, responsible people who founded a great nation and a great state!
