Read a couple of weeks ago that ONE THIRD of the income in the United States (money our citizenry has) is from government handouts. 1/3!!!!

What happens when that shuts down? Chaos here worse than what we saw in England.

But that’s the “top down / bottom up” plan of the left.

Aside from direct transfer payments, consider tax dollars spent on defense, police, fire, ems, schools, medical care and infrastructure. I would estimate that two thirds of the nation's economy is tied to federal, state, and local government spending or tax policy in some fashion or another.

I always believed there would be a tipping point against the government, but I fear the tipping point might now be an uprising in favor of the government.
