[QUOTE="Wolfer69, post: 2087317, member: 3174"] How many Americans depend on a government program for a basic (or not so basic) need? According to recently released Census Bureau data and Heritage Foundation calculations, the number is 128.8 million. That is the number of individuals directly receiving aid that they depend on for their daily consumption of things such as rent, prescription drugs, and higher education. That is 41.3 percent of the U.S.population as of July 2011. The Wall Street Journal puts the number of people living in a household where at least one member receives help at an even higher 49.1 percent 7. From apathy to [B]dependence[/B]; 8. From [B]dependence [/B]back into bondage If half the population is getting a check from Uncle Sugar, that strikes me as somewhat dependent. [/QUOTE]
