discovered that 445,074 Mainers paid state income tax, while 453,194 received some sort of state aid.

Adjusting for overlap reduces the number to 453,194 — or 8,120 more people on state assistance than there are state income taxpayers in Maine.​

Of course
there is no really interest in getting people off the system
or really helping them out of poverty

it would hurt their voting numbers

This is very very very very bad.

 

[Neotrotsky]

Actually

it really is....

It is is a formula for disaster

The Takers are beginning to outnumber the Producers all across this country. Millions & Millions of Americans don't even pay Taxes. And then there's 'Generation Gimme' now demanding their Freebies too. Man,what a mess. Hello Third World,not so nice to meet you.

I must have missed the part of the article that said only people who paid no taxes received welfare, while no tax payers received welfare. Could one of you geniuses point that out to me? Thanks.

Paul LePage, the Republican governor of Maine, mentioned an uncomfortable truth in a radio address this month: Maine has more welfare recipients than income tax payers

 

[paulitician]

Takers will always take. But what happens when there are no more Producers to take from? I guess we'll be getting that answer in the very near future. Third World here we come.

With Obama in office--it won't be long before every other state joins Maine.

"Taxpayers" and "People who receive aid from the State" aren't mutually exclusive groups.

Well, we had this President and Congress that thought that the banks needed no regulation, and that wars could be fought off of the books. Now we have massive debt, and no jobs.

But, according the the 'Conservatives' that is the fault of the people without the jobs, and the fault of the present President that is trying to get us through this without going into a major Depression. In the Last Great Republican Depression, they also blamed the people that had no jobs for the fact there were no jobs.

There is a couple of trillion out there sitting, doing nothing. Held onto by the very people that caused the present debacle. The best thing that we could do, is to get that money circulating, or take it, and circulate ourselves. In other words, invest it within this nation, or we will.
