What a shock... california is on this list



Last month, the Senate Budget Committee reports that in fiscal year 2011, 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 $25.00 an hour.

I can't even find a job that pays $15 per hour let alone $25!. Being on welfare is just wrong(unless you are sick and cannot work).

Yes, its the ultimate tool to destroy the fabric of the nation...   in one stroke of the pen... Obama destroyed any and all attempts at welfare reform.
