Dependency On Government Threatens America’s Future

Evidence Says Dependency Will Keep Growing

Since first day of his presidency, Barack Hussein Obama and administration have advanced programs and initiatives that deepen and expand American citizens’ dependency on government. From new federal programs designed to boost economic activity to health care reform that could place the U.S. government at the center of the nation’s health care system, the central thrust of policy since January 2009 has been to increase Americans’ daily dependency on Washington.

Even more disturbing is the growth in the increases in the percentage of taxpayers who pay no taxes and Congress’s control over spending. The percentage that pays no taxes jumped from 21.3 % in 1980 to 34% in 2008. In 1980, 20 million tax filers paid nothing; in 2008, 48 million paid nothing. The percent of people paying no taxes is increasing and will soon reach 50% not paying taxes.

The steady growth of dependency creating programs, particularly the so-called entitlement programs, and the equally steady shrinking number of taxpayers who have any financial stake in the government threaten rapid growth in mandatory, dependency programs and our very democracy.

Is America closing in on the point that endangers the workings of a democratic government? If non productive people can vote ever greater outlays for their income, health, housing, education, and food support; will the growth of government overwhelm the delicate political balances between those citizens who provide the means for helping other people in need?

We are at a turning point fewer Americans are paying for more people’s free ride.  The point will be reached when the taxpayers have had enough and won’t pay more and more of their income into taxes for those who choose to be on the government dole.

The old adage ‘There is no free lunch’ is true.  The socialists keep pushing their agenda on the taxpayers.  Eventually the workers can’t produce enough wealth to support the non productive.  The socialists are destroying America and our freedom.
