If they receive unearned social assistance (food stamps, subsidized housing, welfare, affirmative action grants, etc) they will vote Democrat. If they have to pay for those unearned social assistance programs, they'll vote Republican.
By the way social security, medicare and programs like them are "earned" programs.
Damn I would make a good poll taker, I would simply ask those questions and could tell you how they will vote.

As it turns out, it is red states that are overwhelmingly the Welfare Queen States. Yes, that's right. Red States — the ones governed by folks who think government is too big and spending needs to be cut — are a net drain on the economy, taking in more federal spending than they pay out in federal taxes. They talk a good game, but stick Blue States with the bill.
Take a look at the difference between federal spending on any given state and the federal taxes received from that state. We measure the difference as a dollar amount: Federal Spending per Dollar of Federal Taxes. A figure of $1.00 means that particular state received as much as it paid in to the federal government. Anything over a dollar means the state received more than it paid; anything less than $1.00 means the state paid more in taxes than it received in services. The higher the figure, the more a given state is a welfare queen.
Of the twenty worst states, 16 are either Republican dominated or conservative states. Let's go through the top twenty.
New Mexico: $2.03
Mississippi: $2.02
Alaska: $1.84
Louisiana: $1.78
West Virginia: $1.76
North Dakota: $1.68
Alabama: $1.66
South Dakota: $1.53
Kentucky: $1.51
Virginia: $1.51
Montana: $1.47
Hawaii: $1.44
Maine: $1.41
Arkansas: $1.41
Oklahoma: $1.36
South Carolina: $1.35
Missouri: $1.32
Maryland: $1.30
Tennessee: $1.27
Idaho: $1.21
Does anyone else notice the overwhelming presence of northern "rugged individualist" states, like Alaska, the Dakotas and Montana, along with most of the South? Why it's almost like there's a pattern here or something.

Once again, clown can't discuss the subject so he googles for an article written by some liberal. We all know the more social hand outs a person receives the more likely they are to vote democrat. The more taxes a person has to pay while not receiving social hand outs, the more likely they are to vote Republican. That's a fact jack!

sillydoofus, elklindo told you the list included four blue states, which makes your post bovine waste.
Don't you reactionary tools ever actually read something before you decide what you think about it?
