2. He must think that the total taxes he's paid exceeds what he's received in welfare.
Doesn't work that way, Joe. Probably the biggest share of your federal taxes goes to the Pentagon so they can play their manly war games in the Middle East. Think you got your money's worth out of that? This is what your war-mongering president has done for your tax dollars over the past eight years. Since he's done it while running up the national debt to historic levels, you're also paying more for other things because of the inflationary effect of such spending.

This guy gives idiots a bad name.
