It appears the GUEAT SPEAKER was given some bad info. As Jim mentioned you can get thr true story from the Forbes article. What it basically states is these 11 states have more takers than makers. A maker is a private sector worker and a taker is not only someone on welfare but anyone that draws a check from the state, be it a paycheck, pension, medicaid or welfare. Not to say that these states ane not in trouble but not just from people on welfare. Overall Govt spending is the problem.
