Whites collect greatest share of public aid
 

Some 61 percent of welfare recipients are White, while 33 percent are Black, according to 1990 Census Bureau statistics, the latest figures available.

Now that's great and timely reporting...
well thought out and statistically relevant...
:error

Considering they made up 75.64% of the population in the 1990 census that is to be expected.

:2 cents:

79.8% of the population is white and 12.8% black as of 2008

Well they cant get jobs because of their skin color.

75% of the population and 61% of those receiving aid. I think you just made the opposite point that you were going for.

Also, in your article it counts social security benefits as welfare....

From the article: "The federal government defines welfare as all entitlement programs funded through taxes."

So they're including Unemployment benefits in those figures. That's a little deceptive.

Just sitting here to watch the ignorant display of people "defending their race".

Have at it. It's stupid beyond belief and the only reason anyone cares is because
these "statistics" are what people use to spread hate by pointing the finger at another
race.

Nobody wants to lose their ability to "point the finger" so there is a never ending
effort to massage the stats to make them fit the individual's agenda.

The agenda is arrogance and hatred.

Congrats to the losers!

Damn
 

Damn them white honkeys !

I posted to clear up obvious distortions. It has nothing to do with defending white people. Where is the ignorance and hatred?

I agree, why are we spending money on even doing stats on this? What is the good of it?

and yet when ppl attack welfare and they are white they are seen as racists, lol...

I"m all about limited welfare (2-4 years tops, job education classes) and also forcing those who receive gov't benefits to be on birth control and if they fail drug tests to have their benefits limited.

Race
--------------
White 38.8%
Black 37.2
Hispanic 17.8
Asian 2.8
Other 3.4

Blacks comprise only 12 percent of the nation, but, according to the above figures, they comprise 37 percent of the welfare rolls.

Yeah take away peoples liberty because they are poor. How about we just not have a government run welfare system? Then we can decide to donate to those charities that take those precautions you outlined?

Great, so it won't be racist if we eliminate it.

just b/c you are poor doesn't mean you have the right to be irresponsible. you obviously can't afford to support more kids so if you are too retarded to figure that out the gov't needs to step in. Why should the gov't support your drug habit? before you know it, there will be a welfare system like in england where girls get knocked up cuz they make more money easier on the dole then not having a kid and working...

i'm all about no welfare and letting the poor die off (thin out the heard), but social darwinism isn't pc.

Do you not understand basic math? Not to be rude, but this is dumb. 61% of the whole white population does not get benefits. 61% of the people that do get benefits are white in this report. It does NOT say what % of the whole population gets benefits, just the break down of race for those that do get benefits.

Yeah, because the right to reproduce another human is NOT a human right.
</sarcasm>

:1orglaugh

Criticized China lately? If so, then cram that hypocritical shit you just said back
into your ass.

Now post incarceration stats by race.

Fucking crackers!


.

Having kids in China is government regulated

I'm not the dumb one here. You said the exact same thing I did and I am all too familiar with the stats. I know exactly what I said and meant. I pulled the numbers from some left here but they are all over and similar. Black people are on welfare at a much higher rate. This is not a racist comment, it's a fact. You can argue amongst yourself about the reasons behind this.

guess what asshole, i go out of my way not to buy shit from china, not that this has anything to do with the american welfare system, and i have no prob with ppl aborting kids if there is a 1 child policy; I'm pro death.

you loose some human rights when you go to jail, so maybe if you want some free gov't cheese you have to make some concessions and not breeding more kids into poverty should be one of them. since when was having kids a right???? you think the fact you can breed means you should?

OK


From 2008...

33.44% White American (non-Hispanic)
20.29% Hispanic
40.21% African American (non-Hispanic)
6.06% Other (American Indian, Alaska Native, Asian American, Native Hawaiian, Pacific Islander American, and Multiracial American).


From Wikipedia...

huh??? actually you clearly stated and I quote "75% of the population and 61% of those receiving aid" that would mean that around 85% of all white people in USA get benefits.

that 61% could be only 5% of the over all population of white people (i dont know the overall numbers for % of people on welfare)

Actually you do have a right to be irresponsible, that is called freedom. Should the government also track their online activities to make sure they are not buying porn, looking at porn ect?

The problem is not with people being irresponsible the problem is with the government helping them.

No, you have the right to be irresponsible because you have a pulse and are a free person. But you also have the right to the repercussions that may come from your irresponsible actions and that is where government can sometimes get in the way.

Not really surprising considering most of the USA is white. Figure the ratios.

What? I don't even...

I said '75% of the population', this means that white people make up 75% of the population. Number sounds off but I pulled it from a post in this thread.

Next I said 'and 61% of those receiving aid'. This means white people make up 61% of those receiving aid which is what the OP stated.

These statements do not contradict each other. If there are 100 million people in America with 2 million on welfare then there are 75 million white Americans and 1.2 million on welfare.

some other race? Aliens ?!?

when you get a paycheck from the gov't b/c you are poor your actions are now under scrutiny and you allow big brother to have a say in the matter. don't want to have the gov't say dont have any more kids you broke ass mofo, then don't get welfare, end of story.

but alas.. this is just hyperbole.. the gov't will never do anything so its all a moot point.

Well hate to say it but the way you worded it was very easily construed as meaning 61% of that 75% gets welfare, especially with your comment after you put out the numbers... So you can see my confusion

Exactly!

And he proposed that the US government regulate birth amongst the poor by
"forcing then to take birth control".

And now look at his response stating "i go out of my way not to buy shit from china".

:1orglaugh

He advocates that we adopt birth regulation like China and then boycotts China.

Dumb MoFo's run around in circles chasing their tails.

If you are on Section 8 in AZ you have to answer to the state, take drug tests, they monitor who comes and goes from your house. If you are reported for having to many people visit you, you can be kicked off. This is b/c they are paying for you to not be homeless. If they are paying for you to not be hungry, cold or homeless then ya they should tell you what to do. You tell your kids what to do when you pay for all of this correct? Being poor is easily avoidable its called an education.

In AZ and Cali people have welfare disease. They have more and more kids to get more and more money and live in 2 bedroom trailers or small apartments, then they also get more food stamps for more kids, and each kid gets free health care, free lunches, free admission to sport teams, all of this is a major drain. So ya i think they should force birth control, and monitor the recipients drug habits. In AZ you cant get food stamps if you have any drug felonies...

I understand.

Do they have a statistic that shows how many Black people are half White but not
counted as White people and only counted as Black?

Further do they have stats that count how many Blacks are
half Hispanic/Asian/Native America/East Indian/Persian/Arab/Jewish yet only counted
as Black?

:1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh

Half the niggas is half the other motherfuckers!!!!!!!!!!!

You just don't like to count it that way.


BWAAAAAHAHAHAHA!

LOL. You'd think he could have at least found some data that wasn't 20 years old. What a pointless thread.

Bottom line :

The sole reason we count the races in America is because we are fucking racist.

</end of story>

Genetics play no part in whether or not you are more prone to being on welfare. 'Nigga' culture does play a huge part though.
