You are not paying attention. Medicare and SS are NOT welfare programs and are NOT included in the numbers cited here. No one ever said they were except YOU. Nothing in the history of the world exceeds the cost of welfare, of course except the overall Federal budget.READ THIS - Since the beginning of the War on Poverty, government has spent $15.9 trillion (in inflation-adjusted 2008 dol*lars) on means-tested welfare. In comparison, the cost of all other wars in U.S. history was $6.4 trillion (in inflation-adjusted 2008 dollars).Now if you believe the war on crime costs more, I would love to sell you a bridge I own over the interstate. Just send me your credit card number. http://www.heritage.org/Research/Welfare/sr0067.cfm
