Quote:That's a pretty slippery slope, it's been said more than 1/3rd of the population is receiving government assistance and or payments. The argument is because individual X is receiving benefit Y from the government it's in their best interest to keep government empowered. Well than you have to include all the people who work for the government as X individuals receiving benefit Y. That would be teachers, police, firefighters, military, administrative workers, postal workers, ect........
