Common sense - so no wonder you have no idea.

FWIW, had Romney said 47% of handouts go to people who could avoid them, I think he would have been applauded as much as he was destroyed for saying 47% of the population does it.
Why are you bothering? It is like educating a brick wall. A waste of time.

Where is Romney getting that info? Fact is neither of us know. It's impossible to measure.

We do know that 10% of all welfare payments are fraud, and misused spending or false identification is part of that.

"We . . . who? I don't know that. No source I can find knows that. Did I catch you making things up yet again? While you're correct that the "true" rate can probably never be calculated, if you actually believe it's anywhere close to that 10% figure, you're even more naive than I thought, which is hard to imagine.

Tang doesnt get basic math.

Gov't earns $100.
Gov't spends $120
Gov't is $20 in the red.
Military costs $16. Entitlement cost $66.
Tang says cut military!!!!!
Tang cannot do basic math. Arguing with him is insanity.

I never said that cutting the military was the only option, and I never said that cutting entitlements was not an option. I told you to prove that cutting entitlements is better for every American.

I can't do math, I don't have common sense or basic logic, and my reading, writing, and comprehension skills are below an ESL. How am I employed?

I am done debating with Tang. That dude has special problems. Out of touch with reality.
I'm pretty much done debating with all of you. You're not going to change my mind, and I'm not going to change yours, so what is the point?

Unemployment rate is low. You don’t make very much money and work in a dying industry.

Your proportions are off.

More like the government spends $1,000 in 2017.

Broken down:

$210 defense
$250 disability and social security (along with a bunch of other stuff - black lung disability trust fund, disabled miners, rail worker pensions, etc.)
$280 health care (mostly medicare and medicaid but also other public health services)

$90 welfare (unemployment, food stamps, other safety nets)
$70 interest on debt
$40 education
$60 other stuff (infrastructure, transportation, federal police forces, court systems, etc)

While spending $1000, the government takes in $830 in 2017. And then it decides in 2018 it's going to reduce the amount it takes in to $750 because rich people need more money.





So you'll have to excuse me when I completely ignore any feigned concern for the deficit.

No. Entitlements are 66% and military is 16%. The # of people on welfare nearly doubled under BHO. It was not for rich people as poor people got breaks too and it was for corporations to halt inversions. Actually wait. I said on these boards I would only mock you as you re an A HOLE.

So...F*CK off you loser.
