They will continue to accept hand outs as long as they are available.

Why don't these people just get a job rather than expecting everything to be handed to them?

It's funny how riled up they all get.

You know how difficult it is finding a job in this economy? The biggest welfare recipients in this country are the banks and Wall St. Corporate welfare is far greater than welfare for the poor.

blame the caucasians, as I am one. They are getting over 65% of the welfare dollars.

too many times/people think/blame the minority population.

Please, please, provide some actual documented proof of that.

Because the chart I just looked up on TANF (Temporary Assistance for Needy Families) as of 2010 stated Whites get 31.8%, Blacks 31.9%, Hispanic like 30%, and "other" races like 0.7%... and that isn't weighted by population density... that is broken down from 100% of payout.

Here: http://www.acf.hhs.gov/programs/ofa/..._ys_final.html

that is significant when you look at how the population density breaks down... ie Whites comprise 72.4% of population yet claim 31.8% of TANF dollars, blacks comprise 12.6% of population yet claim 31.9%, and Hispanics comprise 16.3% of the population and take 30% of the payout...

and population density here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Demogra..._United_States

To put it simpler terms... if you spread the amount paid to whites over the full white population it'd equate to $17.43 per person. If you did the same for blacks it would be $100.40 per person, and Hispanics would be $72.82 per person.

Not trying to make any statement... just disputing this poster's "claim" with actual data. But, by all means, don't let facts get in the way of a good story.
