California: 12% Of The National Population, 32% Of The Welfare Caseload

Yes, you read the headline correctly. The bellwether state of California has 12% of the population of the U.S. and 32% of the national welfare caseload. Is there any wonder the state is $40 billion in the hole and digging faster and deeper? The national implications are frightening.

You can see several graphic representations of this situation on U.S. Senate candidate, Chuck DeVore's website here.
