Re: Does anyone know why America had to spend 3.7 TRILLION on welfare over the last 5

the defense is allowed to question witnesses.
Yes, but there was something else about that incident which I forgot, which led me to conclude that criminals are way too well protected in this country.
 
Re: Does anyone know why America had to spend 3.7 TRILLION on welfare over the last 5

I just saw this in other post, and in my view there can only be ONE reason for such drastic spending on welfare - the nation is so corrupt, that it can only sustain itself by invading other nations and putting it's own people on welfare, knowing full well that if they get off welfare, people will rise up and start rioting. basically America is on a total life support. And the fact that it already has the highest prison population in the world also supports this theory. But let's see if the people agree with me


I picked other It looks like they are funneling money somewhere. Even if you gave each person in American a million dollars each for five years it would still equal only $1.6 billion dollars(assuming the population was on the average of 310 million and that was 310 million x five.) over a 5 year period. Last I checked there is not 310 million millionaires in this country.

Batman doesn't have superpowers.

That's a little below the belt, eh?




I see it as right on the nose.

Sometimes a man just has to say what a man has to say.

Although I think you make an EXCELLENT POINT, I thin your math is a little bit off? nonetheless, I also believe they are DEFINETELY funneling money somewhere.

I think you are using the same calculators that the Heritage Foundation bought when they projected in 2001 that the Bush tax cuts would not only pay off the national debt (not deficit, but debt) in 10 years and leave $1.5T in the bank.... the biggest projection bust in the history of mankind....

http://www.heritage.org/research/re...mic-impact-of-president-bushs-tax-relief-plan

Your's is a close second (no, actually you win the championship... but you a rank amateur and Heritage Foundation are supposedly professionals)...

$1,000,000 per year for 5 years to 310,000,000 people is more like $1.6Q (that is quadrillion, which is a 1,000 trillion)

$3.7 Trillion is over 310,000,000 for 5 years is $2,500 per taxpayer per year.


More interesting is the estimated cost of the Iraq, Afghanistan wars is about the same $3.7T..... at least with welfare we are helping our citizens and keeping the money local (in our economy) and not killing anyone.

Really, which one is more of an outrage?

Anyone who doesn't believe this should speak with the uncle of the current dictator of North Korea.

From what I've read, he's currently unavailable. Being part of the contents of several dogs' stomachs will have that effect! Yuck! Ewwwwww! :shock:

Yep, according to some unconfirmed reports he may have been involved in a dogs eat men execution incident in North Korea.
I'm waiting for confirmation on this story.

Kind of hard to believe right now.

Greedy may be the category of people who have hijacked infrastructure and the natural resources, enslaving society to the point where without government's financial assistance they would die off quickly.

No not just them.
 
Re: Does anyone know why America had to spend 3.7 TRILLION on welfare over the last 5

No because we dont spend that much.

That is why you cant even wipe your *** with SNAP, muchless get a home, or bus pass.

Now how about we look at that MIC? What his it done for USA since 1945?
