HOW WOULD YOU MAKE UP THE SHORTFALL on #2?Great. Turn down the programs so we blue staters can save some money you leeches.
That would be fantastic.
1) Repeal Obamacare
2) Cut Social Security, medicare, food stamps, and all other welfare by 50%.
3) Reduce defense spending by 10%.
4) Eliminate all income taxes on the bottom 95% of people.
And presto! Budgetary surplus.

Democrats are about twice as likely as Republicans to have received food stamps at some point in their lives—a participation gap that echoes the deep partisan divide in the U.S. House of Representatives, which on Thursday produced a farm bill that did not include funding for the food stamp program.
Overall, a Pew Research Center surveyconducted late last year found that about one-in-five Americans (18%) has participated in the food stamp program, formally known as the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program. About a quarter (26%) lives in a household with a current or former food stamp recipient.
Of these, about one-in-five (22%) of Democrats say they had received food stamps compared with 10% of Republicans. About 17% of political independents say they have received food stamps.
The share of food stamp beneficiaries swells even further when respondents are asked if someone else living in their household had ever received food stamps. According to the survey, about three in ten Democrats (31%) and about half as many Republicans (17%) say they or someone in their household has benefitted from the food stamp program.

That's great and all but in the red states, which have the highest rate of food stamp participation, there are far more republicans than Democrats. So though democrats have a higher percentage there are far more republicans using food stamps. Just like how according to your statistics black people have a higher participation rate for food stamps, but there are far far more white people on food stamps than black people.Take Food Stamps for instance.

They cannot help themselves. The vast majority of cons are entitlement junkies.Great. Turn down the programs so we blue staters can save some money you leeches.
Libs should stick it to the conservative states and shrink government, a lot.
We can start at 50%.
Percentages are what matters. You know, just like a batting average? WTF does Blue vs. Red have to do with percentage?That's great and all but in the red states, which have the highest rate of food stamp participation, there are far more republicans than Democrats. So though democrats have a higher percentage there are far more republicans using food stamps.

It's the consistently republican states that are taking in more than they're paying out so...Percentages are what matters. You know, just like a batting average?

nice attempt at spin. what I said was you've already avoided the question..
Are you saying that you're gong to dodge the question? You're not going to be bothered to demonstrate that the people removed from welfare would be sick homeless people?
No such day will ever come. I'm self reliant. I maintain a job, I don't have kids I can't afford, and I live within my means.
