Who are these "victims"? [View all]
Mitt Romney said 47% of the nation considers themselves "victims" and will automatically vote for Barack Obama. That is about 130 million Americans!
Surely he must have been talking about the unemployed drawing their unemployment checks instead of working? But 8% unemployment only adds up to about 10 million people? And only about 50% of those are eligible for unemployment benefits? So, who are the other 120 million "victims" of whom he speaks?
Perhaps he is speaking of the old folks on Social Security and Medicare? Or the disabled that are on SSI benefits? Or maybe he is speaking of all those folks on food stamps? Yeah, just keep those food stamps rolling in if you want my vote Obama!
What other "victims" would Mitt Romney be talking about? Is he talking about disabled veterans? Perhaps he can tell us just who he wants to put to work?
