I do not have anything to back this up. It was on the Cable News Networks, that one out of ten Americans was on the food stamp program. I thought that was a very high figure for this country even in these tough times. I have used the program myself before when I was injured and not insured. I did not like it but I was grateful for it.
This must be from the high unemployment rate right now.
There are literally millions of millionaires in the United States. In fact, according to this 2005 article from MarketWatch, 8.9% of Americans are millionaires.

Seems high huh?
How about the number of millionaires? You know more people became millionaires in 2007 then in 2006?
How many stories on this did you see?
None??
Why?
People like misery stories about the U.S. because they like to believe that we are the problem in the world and not the solution.
We will grow, get stronger and flourish. Times are tough. Just like 1929, 1970 and so on.
Stop with the misery stories.
