Do you understand that 100% can't get stuff from the Government because the Government collects taxes and then does stuff with that money which includes social programs? 78% give more than they get back. If 100 Letsrun posters send me $1 and I send a penny back to 78 of them and I send $2 to the other 22, your logic says that they all got something from me. Only 22 received a benefit while 78 did not. You need to go back to HS economics.
Do you understand that 100% of US dollars come from the government? Do you realize that it isn't a zero sum game. I paid 50k in taxes last year. In return I got a social system that let me make over 250k. That is a great return form the government....
