This is mainly satirical and simplistic, but it gets the point across. The north- specifically the Northeast- is the backbone of this country. You know what states receive the most federal aid? The red, southern ones. You know who pays the bills for that? The Northeast.
Good, they should. Wanna get more simplistic? NE are all white collar professionals making a living off the blue collar residents of the south.
The southerns states, especially Florida, have many Social Security retirees that move there for retirement. Their goals to avoid state income tax. They also enjoy being in the bottom 47% that pay no income taxes, while living off Social Security benefits. They don't realize that the largest population of the 47% non-taxpayers are senior citizens. They tend to vote republican and believe in smaller government, but they don't believe the feds should reduce SS and Medicare benefits. If Romney does get elected, I hope he raises taxes on the bottom 47% and cuts the SS benefits in half. Give 'em what they want. Turn the 47% into taxpayers.
Are you foreal many of these people have been paying into SS for years and should be able to retire and live off the hard work they have done. if by some strange reason your boy does get in office and he does raise taxes on seniors that just goes to prove that he really doesn't care about the other half of AMERICA.
