Freedom Outpost – Dr. Robert Owens – 10/26/2013
"We have just concluded
the 5th fiscal year since President Obama took office. During those five years,
the federal government has spent a total $3.7 trillion on approximately 80
different means-tested poverty and welfare programs. The common feature of means-tested
assistance programs is that they are graduated based on a person's income and,
in contrast to programs like Social Security or Medicare, they are a free
benefit and not paid into by the recipient," says the minority side of the
Senate Budget Committee.
The minority side also
states that, "The enormous sum spent on means-tested assistance is nearly
five times greater than the combined amount spent on NASA, education, and all
federal transportation projects over that time." And the staggering
sum of $3.7 trillion is not even the entire amount spent on federal poverty
support, as states contribute more than $200 billion each year primarily in the
form of free low-income health care.
In total, the Census Bureau
estimated, 151,014,000 Americans out of a population then estimated to be
306,804,000 received benefits from one or more government programs during the
last three months of 2011. Those 151,014,000 beneficiaries equaled 49.2 percent
of the population.
This included 82,457,000
people--or 26.9 percent of the population--who lived in households in which one
or more people received Medicaid benefits.
All these transfer payments
impoverish the working middle class who pay the biggest share of their income
in taxes and empower those who receive the benefits, often being the same ones
who pay no taxes. Thus the have nots become the haves fulfilling the goal
of the Alinsky inspired community organizing program which has become Americas master
plan.
