86M Full-Time Private-Sector Workers Sustain 148M Benefit Takers | CNS News

Very interesting and right from the website. So this is Obummers America eh? Time to cut cut cut and get these folks into all the jobs Obummer created and is toting. If you look at the welfare numbers and add a couple voters that are not that smart you come awe fully close to the number of folks who put him in office and on his path of destruction.

I know people who work full time (retail) and still qualify for benefits. The two groups you outline are not mutually exclusive

The numbers in that 'analysis' do not add up, include retirees, and are not backed up by any relevant link to the source.

Here we go already don't like the numbers declare the data bad. He quotes his source as the census buearu so one would logically assume Obummers data is correct.

Missed the entire point. 86m cannot continue to subsidize 148m people. Liberals love freebies and ObamaCare is a perfect example.

The two groups overlap. The data is fine, the writer is an idiot.

It may come as a surprise to you, but this nation has always had people who you call "takers". They are members of the military, police, fire fighters, retired people, mothers caring for their children......you know.....Americans. You can call them whatever you want, because your words say more about you than them.

While the depiction of SS and Medicaid recipients as "takers" is misguided it does not alter the fact that those who work for the private sector now must support 1.7 people who do not.


Having paid into S.S. since I was a teenager, and Medicare since it´s inception, you´re Da*n right I feel entitled to use them!

The only problem was our Elite Political, and Bureaucratic Classes, moved the goal posts in the middle of our games.
