If it wasn't so tragic it would be hilarious watching Greece collapse under the weight of their own undoing. Socialism is a bitch. When over 60% of the slaves work for their government master, where exactly is the money going to come from? I guess from a fantasy world where tourism pays you to do nothing.
Greece is a cautionary tale for America. The Heritage Foundation reports that 50% in the U.S. do not pay a single dime into the system. One in five Americans rely on a government handout for food, housing, education, etc. 67.3 million Americans receive subsidies from Washington.
What happens when the United States finances hits the fan? Dependency on the government cannot be sustained. Nor should it be tolerated. Unfortunately our incompetent statist DC leaders like it this way.
50% of American can't even afford to pay taxes. Do you want a feudal system, like in the middle ages---where people were required to pay taxes even if it took the food out of their mouth.
