The New Welfare Map-from the inbox


Be sure to read the brief paragraph following the map
THE NEW WELFARE MAP  (Make sure you read the last sentence.)
Quite an eye opener...



These 11 States now have More People on Welfare than they have Employed!

Last month, the Senate Budget Committee reported 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 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 an hour for a 40-hour week, while the average job pays $20 an hour.
