US Welfare, Healthcare, Government

Here’s some real stats on Obama Legacy

These 11 States now have More People on Welfare than they do Employed. Latest U.S. Statistical Map: Make sure you read to the bottom... Quite an eye opener! (or should be)

California, New Mexico, Mississippi, Alabama, Illinois, Kentucky, Ohio, New York, Maine, South Carolina.

These 11 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:  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." We'll NEVER see these facts...in the main stream media.
