The prognosis is dire:“The very nature of this country’s republican form of government is called into question.”Furthermore,the United States has reached the brink of a “tipping point,”at which “reckless growth in dependence programs has produced domestic debt crises.”Such are the findings of the Heritage Foundation‘s annual “Index of Dependence on Government.” Reading the report makes clear why next month’s elections may be the last chance to stop government from growing so big as to cause systemic collapse.
The Heritage index is useful because it uses consistent,objective data year by year. It shows a frightening growth of individual dependence on Uncle Sam at the same time that nearly half the country pays no federal income taxes. When only half the public has a direct stake in keeping spending under control,debt grows unrestrained and politically unrestrainable. Thus,note Heritage Index authors William W. Beach and Patrick D. Tyrrell,“on May 14,2010,the International Monetary Fund ranked the U.S. in second place among countries that must reduce their structural deficit (caused in part by spending on dependence-creating programs) or risk financial calamity.”
The numbers are staggering. Health care and welfare dependency grew 22 percent in 2009 alone. Rural and agricultural services grew 20 percent. Housing was up 15 percent. Only at the height of the Great Society did government dependence grow more rapidly –and that’s when the index was less than one-seventh of its inflation-adjusted size today.
The obamas are useless anti-Americans. They do not think or feel like Americans. Remember,"This is the first time in my life I was proud of my Country"She will go down as one of the worst first ladys EVER !!
These two in OUR White house are anti-American Radicals. Send them back to Kenya !!
