What is it with Goopers and "47 percent of the population are slackers." ????


http://www.rawstory.com/rs/2013/10/22/maine-governor-says-47-percent-of-states-residents-choose-not-to-work/


http://www.usatoday.com/story/news/nation/2012/12/09/romneys-47-percent-chosen-as-years-best-quote/1756833/

Where did this number come from? One would think that after Romney used it, anyone making the same point would at least use a different number.

The DUmmy is right, it isn't 47% it's higher.
You DUmmies are slackers, not a one of you is worth a shit. Most of you are disabled with PTSD because one time you didn't get your own way. None of you are willing to work for anything and just demand that those who do work hand you half of their salary.

Hey, lurking DUmmies. I have a news flash for you. Depending on which figures you use, 1.1 or 1.7 people take for every 1 who makes.

Find the thread here that talks about it.

Screw the "tipping point"; the United States of America has officially driven off the cliff.

Those who voted for Dear Leader fall under two categories:

1) Moochers
2) Moocher Enablers

I'll help the dummies out BD. Chances are they are too stupid to find the other thread here.

Link proving the dummies wrong (http://cnsnews.com/news/article/terence-p-jeffrey/census-bureau-means-tested-govt-benefit-recipients-outnumber-full)

An excerpt for the dummies too stupid to figure out how to click on the link:

Quote
Among the 108,592,000 people who fit the Census Bureau’s description of a means-tested benefit recipient in the fourth quarter of 2011 were 82,457,000 people in households receiving Medicaid, 49,073,000 beneficiaries of food stamps, 20,223,000 on Supplemental Security Income, 23,228,000 in the Women, Infants and Children program, 13,433,000 in public or subsidized rental housing, and 5,854,000 in the Temporary Assistance for Needy Families program. Also among the 108,592,000 means-tested benefit recipients counted by the Census Bureau were people getting free or reduced-price lunch or breakfast, state-administered supplemental security income and means-tested veterans pensions.

No doubt they will mock the owner/source of the article instead of where the article got the data from.
