Before you all go off on some tangent thinking this is bad for Germany, don't forget the democrat leader of the House, Nazi Pelosi, has said welfare has a positive effect on a nation's economy. That must explain why Frau Merkel wants so many muslims on welfare.

Nancy Pelosi proudly defended the welfare party.http://www.lonelyconservative.com/2010/10/pelosi-food-stamps-and-unemployment-give-biggest-bang-for-our-buck/ CNN: At a press conference in her home town of San Francisco, Pelosi explained that the program’s multiplier effect –the amount of money generated in the local economy as the result of the subsidy– far exceeds the nearly $60 billion spent this year by the federal government and is a sure-fire way to stimulate the economy. For every dollar a person receives in food stamps, Pelosi said that $1.79 is put back into the economy. The U.S. Department of Agriculture cites an even higher figure of $1.84.
“It is the biggest bang for the buck when you do food stamps and unemployment insurance. The biggest bang for the buck,” she said.
Gingrich on Tuesday wrote a letter critical of the Democrats’ stewardship of the economy and urged all Republican candidates to shape the political debate as one “between the Democratic Party of food stamps and the Republican Party of paychecks.”
“It is an unassailable fact that in June, more food stamps were distributed by the government than ever before in American history. (It turns out that Barack Obama’s idea of spreading the wealth around was spreading more food stamps around.),” wrote Gingrich.
