Bachmann: USA should be less socialist --like China...

[LeftinOH]

“The ‘Great Society’ has not worked and it’s put us into the modern welfare state,” she said. “If you look at China, they don’t have food stamps. If you look at China, they’re in a very different situation. They save for their own retirement security…They don’t have the modern welfare state and China’s growing. And so what I would do is look at the programs that LBJ gave us with the Great Society and they’d be gone.”

that more workers should fling themselves off of factory rooftops to reduce the surplus population.
