Ha ha, CA has 34% of the nation's welfare recipients! In fact, California is THE most welfare dependent state (see below). Your article equates federal spending with welfare. That's dishonest. Here's something from the San Diego Union: *34%* Of the nation’s welfare recipients live in California but only … *12%* … of the U.S. population resides here. http://www.sandiegouniontribune.com/news/politics/sdut-welfare-capital-of-the-us-2012jul28-htmlstory.html More info here: California more of a welfare state than most countries in Europe http://www.ocregister.com/2015/08/29/california-more-of-a-welfare-state-than-most-countries-in-europe/ https://www.usgovernmentspending.com/compare_state_spending_2017b40a
