My guess is that is mostly made of those who collected unemployment benefits after being laid off at one time or another.

What a crock! What is the percentage of benefits paid to these people today? If I make 100k now, but got unemployment once when I was young, then I am one of these folks. Hardly scamming the system.They should take back whatever they can, since they are providing 90% of the tax revenue.

The one that got to me was rural folks recieiveng more benefits. That is why we are losing the country. The entitlement mentality is inside the fence...

I believe the question was "have tapped..."

I would qualify for that, as many here would, I have twice drawn unemployment benefits (once at 19, again in my late 20's).

Was a trick question: How many have USED. As in if you grew up poor and your parents fed you with food stamps, but now you’re a billionaire, you’d still count as part of that 39%

The motive of this poll: Show that we’re all already dependent on government, esp. a majority of those icky Romney voters, so we all need MORE government.

Give it a B- for disguising the push nature of the quiz...
