I guess the thing that concerns me is the growing class of voters who are expecting something in exchange for their support.

Yet you use a single person's comments.

As for the second part. The blue states continually contribute more in taxes than they get back while the red states get more than they contribute. Than means that the lazy freeloading blue states actually are the ones that support the hard working patriotic red states

Texas is a notable exception...getting shafted even worse than California.

I caught a sound byte on the radio this morning that commented on a recent survey of Republicans, 21% believe socialism is an OK thing. As a country we are screwed.

Look for the shiny things of God revealed by the Holy Spirit. They only last for an instant but it is a Holy Instant. Let your soul absorb them.

Do you really think those sentiments are solely her own? How many feel as she does?...can't say for sure. Doesn't take one very long to find more echoing the same request.

Considering it is the government that decides how those numbers play out perhaps you're placing the blame in the wrong spot.

Yep. Even you avail yourself of socialist programs that provide you government handouts. Either you're an evil socialist - or like most people in the US, you are OK with our mix of capitalism, socialism, communism, democracy, representative government, constitutional republic and meritocracy.

According to US Census Bureau data, 49.1% of the US population lives in a household where at least one member is receiving government benefits:

Yep. I get benefits.

Since you're so keen on generalizations, why do Republicans want to take benefits away from disabled veterans?

if we surveyed economists at to what percentage of Republicans understand what socialism is, how much higher than 21% would it be?

I don't know anyone who wants to take benefits away from anyone. Doesn't mean it's not going to happen.
