I mean, how did Obama win? He promised, then gave, the biggest welfare state ever. We recipients like it now, but when it collapses, things will be worse than a toxic waste plant meltdown. Just a little nudge more, and Chicago will look like Detroit.
Because clearly that's the root cause of all your economic problems. When the collapse comes, it definitely has nothing to do with inequality, military spending, foreign policy, financial deregulation, market manipulations and corrupt banks. It was just welfare that ruined everything.
When did the world get so gormless?
All the other causes will be very unhappy that they were not invited to the party.
Why are you so mean?
Can't tell if the sarcasm was lost in my post somehow. I don't think there's a single cause and even if there was it definitely isn't welfare. There are likely dozens of causes, but lately all the scaremongering and scapegoating is on things like welfare and immigration and I'm sick of hearing it.
