All the Welfare in the World

There appears to be some kind of inverse correlation between the amount of money a State spends on welfare "for the poor," and the happiness experienced by the recipients of said welfare. As Jim points out, the heavily socialist New England states rank the lowest in the nation in terms of how "happy" their poor are.

Could it be that Captain Smith was on to something when he demanded that those who can work—should work?

Who would've guessed it?

Now go get yourself into some OCD treatment program—you obviously need it if you actually read all of this mess.

*Si vous les Américains étaient plus gentils et légers comme le français brillant, vous vous occuperiez de vos propres gens. Tout vous faites êtes écoute pour noircir la musique et tue ! Forest, vous êtes un vrai pénis de cheval. La France en vie longue.
