Jon Stewart destroys Fox's defence of Romney... did you follow that?

Stewart is part of the same system. Its all the same plan. You just too short sighted to see

They both seem to have each other's backs. Good.

Here's "DATA" for ya...

lets get past worrying about which low income group is on the take. Let's discuss what it is costing the American taxpayer... PER TAX PAYER!!!

While other programs are constrained through annual budgets, entitlements get the first call on resources. Other goals such as defense or national security must compete for an increasingly smaller share of what’s left. This “locked in” spending is steadily undermining the economic future of younger generations who face a debt burden of $175,000. The moral and ethical challenge from the entitlement tsunami is undermining our democratic system as more Americans become dependent on the government and other priorities are automatically preempted.

The federal government’s long-term financial obligations grew by $2.5 trillion last year, a reflection of the mushrooming cost of Medicare and Social Security benefits as more baby boomers reach retirement.

That’s double the red ink of a year earlier.

Taxpayers are on the hook for a record $57.3 trillion in federal liabilities to cover the lifetime benefits of everyone eligible for Medicare, Social Security and other government programs, a USA TODAY analysis found. That’s nearly $500,000 per household.

When obligations of state and local governments are added, the total rises to $61.7 trillion, or $531,472 per household. That is more than four times what Americans owe in personal debt such as mortgages.

While Jon's commentary may be hysterical....the problems connected to it are not. We are divided almost down the middle as a country. We are the laughing stock of other countries. It is a sad state of affairs.

Unfortunately, just like with our own individual finances, America needs to be responsible for hers. She is not able to repay. If America was trying to get a mortgage right now, she would be turned down cold. You simply cannot give away what you do not have. No matter how "entitled" you are.

The constitution endows us all with the right to PERSUE life, liberty, and happiness.... we are not just to take it. As for me and my house.... we support our own. In hard time AND good times.

Tell us what is really going on.

oops that was me... lols got kicked off and wasn't paying attention.

I see many still can't grasp the notion of the 'Extended Family' that pays into the Welfare system and how this translates to no bumming off of strangers when it comes to the individual claiming a Benefit.

Everyone has a massive extended Family,whether you know them or not does not matter,the fact is most will be in Work and paying their share of Tax that is deducted for the purpose of Benefits and most will never claim that entitlement - There is a huge pool of unclaimed benefits that often remain unclaimed because the employed are employed(1+1) - This allows for those who cannot get work or are actually to ill to work to recieve Monies not from Government or bumming off strangers but directly from your massive extended Family that has been paying the tax down for Decades.

1+1 is'nt in Faux Language neither is Civilization.

But then we in the rest of the Western World know that Fox is nothing more than Political Poonerology and tounge in cheek comedy - We are still shocked that viewers of Faux cannot see this,why can you not see this!?
