The self-inflicted death of America is not a pretty sight. Given how admirable the US was until not all that long ago, the descent into the dust is astonishing. Whatever principles of a free republic that were there then, they are being buried in front of our eyes. What you are looking at is a set of data that, according to the article Entitlement America shows this:

“A one-parent family of three making $14,500 a year (minimum wage) has more disposable income than a family making $60,000 a year.”
