Amazing Stats

This is what bothers a lot of people about Trump.
He won’t accept a can’t do attitude, or inexperienced, incompetent performance.  He will get results, it just might not be smooth or pretty.
 Here are some amazing stats: Make sure you read to the bottom.
 An eye opener!  (Or should be!)
 1. California
 New Mexico
 Mississippi
 Alabama
 Illinois
 Kentucky
 Ohio
 New York
 Maine
 South Carolina
 These 10 States now have More People on Welfare than they do Employed!
2.  Last month, the Senate Budget Committee reports that in fiscal year 2012, between food stamps, housing support, child care, Medicaid and other benefits, the average US. Household below the poverty line received $168.00 a day in government support.
What’s the problem with that much support? Well, the median household  income in America is just over $50,000, which averages out to $137.13 a day.
To put it another way, being on welfare now pays the equivalent of just over $20 an hour for 40 hour week, while the average job pays $24.00 an hour……. Check the last set of statistics!!
3. The percentage of each past president’s cabinet who had worked in the private business sector prior to their appointment to the cabinet. You know what the private business sector is…..  A real-life business, not a government job.
 Here are the percentages:
38%    T. Roosevelt
40%    Taft
52%    Wilson
49%    Harding
48%    Coolidge
42%    Hoover
50%    F. D. Roosevelt
50%    Truman
57%    Eisenhower
30%    Kennedy
47%    Johnson
53%    Nixon
42%    Ford
32%    Carter
56%    Reagan
 51%    GH Bush
39%    Clinton
55%    GW Bush
 8%    Obama
Look at those numbers again.  This helps explain the bias, if not the incompetence, of the last administration.
ONLY 8% of them have ever worked in private business!
That’s right!  Only eight percent – the least, by far, of the last 19 presidents!
And these people tried to tell our corporations how to run their businesses?
How can the president of a major nation and society, the one with the most successful economic system in world history, stand and talk about business when he’s never worked for one?  Or about jobs when he has never really had one?  And, when it’s the same for 92% of his senior staff and closest advisers? They’ve spent most of their time in academia, government, and/or non-profit jobs or as “community organizers.”
