Some people DO get somethin’ for nothin’ and those people are costing the people who actually work a lot of money.

California is consuming 1/3 of U.S. welfare dollars and has only 12% of the population. These charts tell the harrowing story.

Why do the Democrats want to push the failed policies of those states on the whole country and during a recession no less?
