So, you right wingers are good with having your social security, V.A., and disability benefits cut off? Because I certainly am.
ummmm..... I'm a patriotic Progressive veteran.You did get the part about the V.A. right. I stop by there once every 5 yrs or so.
Sorry, man. I misread you.
Nearly all the right wingers and Tea Partiers I know around here are on the government dole in one form or another.

I hope Rafael (Cruz) & his TPM buddies in the House shut down the gov'tI doubt it happens, but if it does it'll be because the TPM shut down the govt or defaulted on the debt. If is does, the first thing the dems do is pass a law making Obamacare defundable unless there's a supermaj, and that would be bad for the county in the longterm.

The Maxwell Poll has detailed information about welfare use. The data is from 2004-2007. During this period in these polls a plurality of voters supported Democrats. I will graph the two-party vote, more data is at the end.
Hardly surprising, we see that in a two-party split, 60-80% of welfare recipients are Democrats, while full time Workers are evenly divided between parties.
You have similar results in this recent NPR-Poll. Among the Long Term Unemployed, 72% of the two-party support goes to Democrats.
From the Gellman-paradox we know that the low-income voters who drag down the Red States average tend to vote disproportionally for Democrats. Republican voters earn significantly more than Democrats, even though Red state earn less than Blue states.
If Republicans threaten to take us over the cliff and shutdown gov't, and if Obama allows them to without caving like he always does, the Democrats would have a shot at taking back the House, but I'm not sure they could get back 60 in the Senate. Really hard to do.
I think shutting the gov't down and forcing Republican reps to have to face the wrath of the people in their districts just might be the perfect remedy for extinguishing some of the extremist douchebags who've overrun that party.
The debt shall go unquestioned. Says so in our own constitution, a document Republicans pretend to be "strict contructionists" about.
Obamacare is the law. It's been held up by the Supreme Court. If Republicans seriously think that Obama would sign off on defunding it, they're a special kind of stupid.

What in the world is a "Democrat Two-Party vote share?" I don't see any useful information in those graphs at all. So you're saying that most rich people vote Republican? Duh.

On October 1, many retired veterans (possibly millions) are going to be losing their Tricare Prime medical insurance coverage and will be forced onto a more expensive Tricare Standard program.
I am one of them.
Hence, I discourage any young person from joining the military and serving a full 20 years. You'd be a total sucker to do so. Retiree benefits have been slowly eroded in the past 20 years. The total really adds up now. So don't make a career out of the military, kids. You would be better off serving one enlistment, acquiring a skill, and then making a killing in the corporate world.
Serving 20 years and earning a pension and health insurance coverage is not being "on the dole". Those benefits were bought and paid for, oftentimes with blood.
And now we are being fucked.
But you know what? I would not mind at all if I knew that everyone was taking a bite of the $16 trillion shit sandwich we have to eat.
That means EVERYONE. Not just "the rich". Everyone ran up that bill.
Everyone.
Every time you take a tax deduction, you are "on the dole". You are adding to the debt. So be very careful with the self-righteous "on the dole" bullshit.

Lean to the left does not mean they are dems.
Therefore we can ignore your assessment.

If is does, the first thing the dems do is pass a law making Obamacare defundable unless there's a supermaj, and that would be bad for the county in the longterm.
If the Dems take the House and get 60 seats in the Senate, you can expect another assault weapons ban, tighter than the last one. But you must keep in mind that there are conservative democrats who are not automatically in the gun control column.
