STUDY: BY 2050, 60% OF AMERICAN PRODUCTION WILL GO TO GOVERNMENT

Breitbart:

According to Michael D. Tanner of the CATO Institute, America isn’t just headed for a fiscal cliff – we flew off it long ago like Thelma and Louise thanks to our out-of-control spending habit. Tanner writes: “federal spending is set to rise to 46 percent of GDP by 2050. When you add in state and local spending, government at all levels will be consuming more than 60 percent of everything produced in this country. We cannot long remain economically productive or personally free with a government of that size.”

A major problem is that the real parasitic takers either don't give a darn, don't understand the implications of this statistic or both.

I know @Pepper, some of them are in our own family and some are dumb as a post about these things and other don't give a damn. Future generations or other people don't count, just me me me. I am blessed that my children know the value of work, but they are starting to get discouraged about having to work harder, not for their own families, but for others
