CNSNEWS.com的報道:
根據美國國會預算審計統計(PDF 原文請見:http://budget.senate.gov/republican/public/index.cfm/files/serve/?File_id=0f87b42d-f182-4b3d-8ae2-fa8ac8a8edad),聯邦政府向每個貧困家庭提供了近60000美元的福利資助。

根據聯邦統計局統計,美國大約有16.8million人口生活在年收入低於23000美元(合15萬人民幣左右)水準。聯邦政府提供的各種補貼使得這些貧困家庭年收入達到83000美元(合人民幣52萬左右)。


Report: Enough Spent on Welfare Programs in 2011 to Write Every Poor Household a $59,523 Check

(CNSNews.com) – The federal government spent enough money on federal means-tested welfare programs to have sent each impoverished household a check for nearly $60,000, according to figures from the Census Bureau and the Congressional Research Service (CRS).

According to a report from the CRS produced for Sen. Jeff Sessions (R-Ala.), $1 trillion was spent on federal welfare programs during fiscal year 2011 – with $746 billion in federal funds and $254 in state matching funds.

The U.S. Census Bureau reported that there were approximately 16.8 million households living below the federal poverty level of $23,000 per year for a family of four in 2011. ( See:  2011 Households Below Poverty 2011.pdf )

If each of the estimated 16.8 million households with income below the poverty level were to have received an equal share of the total welfare spending for fiscal year 2011, they each would have received $59,523.

If only the 2011 federal share of welfare spending (no state matching funds) were spent as direct cash payments, each household would have received $44,404, which is nearly double the federal poverty level for a family of four.

This federal welfare spending does not include programs such as Medicare and Social Security, because they are not means-tested programs. Means-tested programs are those that only pay out benefits to people whose incomes fall below a certain threshold, such as food stamps, traditional cash welfare, and Medicaid.

In other words, if the government were to discontinue its myriad federal welfare programs, such as housing vouchers, food stamps, and Medicaid, and instead just wrote every poor household a check, it would nearly quadruple their income: increasing it from at most $23,000 per year to nearly $83,000 per year.

如果這個統計數據是真的,我只能用「荒唐」來形容政府的這種開支的方法,我不反對給貧困家庭的補助,但不可過度。

我只能說,中美兩國,美國是ABUSE普世價值,中國是REFUSE普世價值。都挺可悲的,不是嗎?對比之下,還是美國好一點啊,因為每個人不知道什麼時候,也會淪落到貧困階層里,起碼還有些保障。但逆向操作獎勤罰懶,不是正道,是「邪路」。

這不是民主黨給窮人的錢,而是民主黨花在窮人福利上的錢。為什麼民主黨不直接給錢給窮人? 目的很明顯,民主黨是要花錢給政府公務員買工作。 100美元的錢花在福利上,可能有50美元進了公務員的腰包,20美元成了承包商的利潤,剩下的30塊才落到窮人手裡。回頭民主黨再從美國人口袋裡把這100美元通過稅收拿回來。

這就是為什麼華盛頓特區歷史上都是一邊倒的支持民主黨,因為民主黨在給美國公務員口袋裡面放錢。

通過選票就可以獲得利益,為什麼還要去奮斗,因為奮斗的結果多數會被政府沒收。

事實1,美國家庭收入在82000美元以上的只有22%,這些人交的稅能否把剩下的78%的人的生活水平提升到他們這個檔次,這還用我說么?

事實2,美國最富有的前20個社區,16個在華盛頓。而華盛頓是公務員扎堆的地方。

事實3,華盛頓特區向來是民主黨的鐵票,因為民主黨回往公務員口袋裡放錢。

窮人在醫療,住房,煤水電,電話,教育,生孩子,養孩子等等方面都有福利,而非僅僅是食品券。

寫到這,想了想,真的還有必要奮鬥了嗎?閑著沒事吃成個胖子,然後到公立醫院免費減肥治病,一輩子也快快樂樂地過去了,哈。
