Who benefits the most from all these single parents who are shooting themselves in the economic foot?

The kids who would otherwise be orphans.
 
WHY ARE YOU ALL ON HERE WASTING TIME INSTEAD OF FIGHTING FOR MANDATORY MARRIAGE WHEN PEOPLE HAVE CHILDREN? If everyone is married almost all our issues will be resolved.

why do you like using all caps
 
Come on big guy. Since single-parent households became the bane of our economy, who has been shoveling in money by the truckload?

He answered your question. Michael Jordan. He's made a killing since the 80s.

All those people reliant on the government! Damn single parent Democrats!

OK, that's fine and all, but that doesn't answer my question.


Some of the biggest "takers" from the federal government are red states (the deep south, primarily) and they don't vote Democrat by and large. So I don't think your point has any merit what-so-ever.

Again, you have not presented any evidence that these single parent households are more or less likely to vote for either political party.

Just because you have a belief system that makes you want to believe that the single parent households vote for Democrats isn't good enough for me. So, do you have any evidence to back up your claim or not?

Because, as that map shows, the states that take the most from the federal government don't really vote for Democrats when it comes to national office.

Democrats are about twice as likely as Republicans to have received food stamps at some point in their lives—a participation gap that echoes the deep partisan divide in the U.S. House of Representatives, which on Thursday produced a farm bill that did not include funding for the food stamp program.

The share of food stamp beneficiaries swells even further when respondents are asked if someone else living in their household had ever received food stamps. According to the survey, about three in ten Democrats (31%) and about half as many Republicans (17%) say they or someone in their household has benefitted from the food stamp program.
 
OK.

Did that say anything about single parent households?

1. The problem---at least my party considers it a problem---is dependency on subsistence level entitlement programs instead of independence and autonomy. Single parent homes are a cause of the subsequent revolutions of this cyclical problem.
2. Persons receiving this substandard benefits are twice as likely to vote Dem as Pub.

Silly man. That's not benefiting. That's basic subsistence.

Who, in the past 35 years, has REALLY shoveled it in. Who really really likes this kind of economy where wages are shit, the minimum wage is flat, labor sits at the kid's table, and the government keeps them from revolting with borrowed crumbs to fill in the gaps?

The numbers are self-reported, correct? Therefore the data has bias in it and isn't presenting a complete picture.


I'm sure that people that receive help from the government to eat are more likely to vote Democrat. I concede that. I will not concede that it is the double amount as shown in that poll because I think some Republicans/conservatives wouldn't admit to receiving a "handout" from the government because the government is bad.

Dems have made class warfare and victimology a central part of their brand during your referenced time period. Insincere promise after insincere promise is lathered on the people who are failed by this poorly reasoned policies and the Dems have made their political fortune off fighting to "defend" these programs from "attacks" (read: reforms). Gee, thanks.

Meanwhile, Dems are pushing for amnesty and fighting immigration enforcement which has flooded the labor market and pushed a lot of entry level and low skill jobs into the underground market. Who does that help? It damned sure hurts the people that Dems pretend to care about more than anyone, who now have to compete with people hiding in the shadows for entry level work. With friends like you guys...

Seriously why aren't Dems pushing mandatory marriage at age 18.

Because they are delighted with the mess that they have made. laughing all the way to the ballot box. If they actually cared 1/2 of what they pretend to, they'd focus on behaviors, not demographic factors. Telling that they'd rather exploit divisions than critically examine just how catastrophically the Welfare State has failed. Pay no attention to the cratering of family structure and cyclical dependency; somebody else might not be paying their "fair share" [sic].
 
jhmd, do consider the people who work full-time and are on the dole to be double dipping?

Working people are not the problem. Work has upward mobility. Dependency programs have, shall we say, a more gradual arc.
