These 11 States now have More People on Welfare than they do Employed!  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 U.S. Household below the poverty line received $168.00 a day in government support, which equates to approximately $61,000 annual income. What's the problem with that much support?  The median household income in America is just over $50,000, which averages out to $137.13 a day.
