They’d look at it as
“in 20% of families, no one has to work”
What else has happened during that period? Oh yes, a commie kenyan usurper's regime took power.
A lot of people were thrown out of work during the 2008 financial crisis under Bush's watch. Not saying it was Bush's fault it was decades in the making. But people didn't just suddenly wake up in 2008 and say, "I'm not going to work today". They got notified on a Friday, "You're not coming to work on Monday."
The jobs aren't there for people who want them. Before you can address the people who don't want to work, the economy has to have jobs for them. And we don't even have jobs for the ones that do want to work.
Bring back the industries first. Get people who want jobs working. Then do interventions for the people who for whatever reason aren't trying any more.
I would like to see a racial breakdown of the folks who aren’t working...
I'm convinced that restoring American industry will help everyone, minorities included. Working people aren't out shooting each other, or thugging or playing knockout games. They're paying taxes to the government instead of receiving support payments.

Did they back out retired persons - or are they in the 16M?
From the article:An elderly couple, in which both the husband and wife are retired, would count as a family in which no one held a job.There is a world of moral difference between a never-hired person and a retired person - but there it is . . .

And, I might add, they are busy stocking up on ammo and food for when the cart stops moving in what will be a painful, and historically difficult and extended period of time in our nation’s history. Care to pick a name for this era ? Mega Depression or Barry’s Bonanza, perhaps ?
So many will be hurt by this, not by any least this 20% idle class.
( It would be helpful to know the % idle with the elderly figures removed )
And it will be no other than corrupt.gov who is wholly responsible, yet will remain held entirely unaccountable after the ‘unexpected’ colossal fall with a splat. This one particular point, I sincerely hope the most that I am wrong about. Many MUST answer to We the People at some point.
And yet, what are the odds that 53%, or more will so gleefully vote for the next evil genius Hitlary who will finish driving the bus faster toward and off the last exit on the Interstate at breakneck speed. Think she will care about her ‘legacy’ ? She’d just as well be infamous, but with the elite class when it finally breaks.
All the elite have to say is any variation of ‘I feel your pain’, and the electorate falls for it. Why does this nation accept liars as leaders, ever? !!
Until the true idle class is fundamentally educated and non-voting class is woken up, if either is even possible, nothing, especially the shrinking middle class, will stop brakeless.bus.gov, and it leaves but the question of when.
I sure would love to know the answer to THAT specific question, though.! WHEN ?!?
The odds do not favor turning the bus around.
GOPe will certainly have no plan for reversing brakeless.bus.gov. They will slow it down ever so slightly, and call it progress. Pffft!
If we, as a nation, and a movement, do not engage enough voting people to flush out every last incumbent official on every single level who has ever before served corrupt.gov, with VERY few exceptions, in the next three election cycles, then We the People won’t stop brakeless.bus.gov from hitting the cliff either which, of course, is the ultimate plan. I mean, what else could it possibly be?
COS might have helped, but I suspect it’s too slow of a process and we are out of time by the time we can achieve term limits, balanced budget, and nix the 17th sort of amendments. It would be revolutionary if we could achieve this result in short order, as it might SHOCK the system by the States actually asserting their rights and power for ONCE in the last 100 years. But this is not likely to be now, just as it has not been then. The States have been consumed by fedzilla.gov. Almost all 57 of them! I’ll leave it to the reader to figure out which ones haven’t totally sold out.
Prepare.
Have an exit strategy.
And please SURVIVE to help hang every last one of them separately, and then lead our nation back to its founding.
There should be a whole lot less moon bats to deal with on the other side, if that’s any consolation.
Free market growth is ultimately the only answer.
Elect to Eject
Resist and Reset
Thanks, and good luck. May God bless all of us.
