More than half of Americans receive more money in various types of government transfer payments (Medicare, Medicaid, food stamps and Social Security) than they pay in federal taxes. The Congressional Budget Office reports that only the top 40% income earners in the US pay more in taxes than they receive in government transfers. Ludwig von Mises once noted that once we get to the point that a majority of the voting population receives more in benefits than it pays in taxes, then voters will demand more and more wealth be transferred to them through government programs. It will then become politically necessary to extract larger and larger amounts of wealth from a minority in order to subsidize the majority.

These monsters deliver enough energy to blow apart the master transformers that supply the planet’s energy grids. When that happens, the lights go out for longer than anyone wants to think about. These X-Class solar storms hit the Earth every 150 years, on average. The last one arrived 156 years ago. We are overdue (More)

We were knocking ourselves out trying to survive and I drove to the government office for business. What I saw sickening me. Inside were immigrant men applying for welfare. And what is the lie we’re told? They’re coming here to work? Not a chance. They’ve likely been told they can come to America and receive welfare since they’re mostly all on it. How are we going to continue this as more and more migrants come here?
Remember that the next time your legs and back ache from working a 70-80 hour workweek.
