Reader: Welfare the winner

| November 14, 2012 5:00 AM

The election came down to two issues; Handouts and jobs. The handouts won.

Seventy percent of the people are dependent on government for their livelihood (government employees, supplemented low income, welfare, unemployed, unemployed disabled, entitled social security, etc).

How can the 70 percent expect the 30 percent and businesses that pay all the taxes to keep paying all their bills, still survive, and continue to create taxpaying jobs?
