Under Obama's plans, which are socialistic, there will be trillions of dollars more in welfare program, and we don't have enough rich people to pay for them. Who do you think is going to pay for them?

You still don't get something for nothing.
You're new here, so I don't want to attack you, but when you post in a thread, could you address the prior posts, (especially the multiple ones that I made) instead of posting claims that have been rebutted many times before?

Don't make condescending posts.
