These 11 States now have More People on Welfare
than they employee! Last month, the Senate Budget
Committee reports that in fiscal year 2011, between
food stam...ps, 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 $25.00 an hour.
