APP - One more reason why blacks should abandon the Democrat Party

Loyal to the end
In mid-1960s America, the nation's out-of-wedlock birth rate (which stood at 7.7 percent at the time) began a rapid and relentless climb across all demographic lines, a climb that would continue unabated until 1994, when the Welfare Reform Act put the brakes on that trend. Today the overall American illegitimacy rate is about 33 percent (26 percent for whites). For blacks, it hovers at near 70 percent—approximately three times the level of black illegitimacy that existed when the War on Poverty began in 1964.

Funny how the majority of people who are on welfare are white single parent females is a FACT that is constantly ignored by these sheet wearing simpletons and their vaunted "think tanks".

I say, give the country a viable third party that promotes the interests of ALL the people, and you will have black, white, brown, tan, yellow abandon BOTH Republican & Democratic parties in sizeable numbers.

Funny how you find statistics so confusing that you have to resort to race-baiting.

The overwhelming majority of those who receive welfare benefits are white. What is true, however, is that blacks are more likely to be on welfare than you would expect from their share of the general population. While blacks make up about 13 percent of the population, they constitute about 25 percent of those on welfare.

Race-baiting? That would be your modus operandi.

Despite prevailing stereotype, Whites, not Blacks, collect greatest share of public aid dollars

SAY the word "welfare" and immediately the image of the lazy Black wellare queen who breeds for profit surfaces in the minds of those who have come to believe the hideous stereotype. It is a myth that persists despite government figures and authoritative studies showing that Whites overwhelmingly reap the lion's share of the dole.

The image of the Black "welfare cheat," public aid advocates say, is based on misconceptions about poor minorities. The notion, they say, comes from society's resentment of seemingly ablebodied people getting paid for doing nothing.

"For some people, there is a need to believe that there are professional welfare recipients who are deliberately trying to get not only what they need to survive, but more," says Anne D. Hill, director of programs for the National Urban League. "People say to themselves: 'I work. How come this person who appears to be healthy isn't working?' We tend to equate our condition with others without fully knowing their circumstances."

Hill and other welfare supporters argue that numbers, and not erroneous stereotypes, tell the real story about public assistance clients: Some 61 percent of welfare recipients are White, while 33 percent are Black, according to 1990 Census Bureau statistics, the latest figures available.

The federal government defines welfare as all entitlement programs funded through taxes. These programs, listed as "direct benefit payments for individuals" by the Office of Management and Budget, make up $730 billion or 43 percent of the $1.47 trillion the government will spend this fiscal year.


Michigan welfare officials, for example, dumped 90,000 people from its general assistance program last year to save the state $250 million. Unfortunately, a majority of those clients, as is the case nationwide, are poor Black men living in urban areas with staggeringly high unemployment rates. Many of these men suffer from physical or mental disabilities. Without welfare benefits, they face a grim future.

The question of who gets welfare is one that society would do well to ponder. As it stands now, poor Black Families are up against the burdens of systematic racism, urban warfare and limited paths leading up and out of poverty. And many working class and middle class Black families are a paycheck away from joining their poorer brothers.

The welfare question goes to the heart of individual attitudes about race, class, values and beliefs. Those judgments, often made by the powerbrokers who shape public policy, rarely coincide with the sensibilities of the poor. How they decide who gets welfare can irrevocably alter the destinies of generations of impoverished people.

I have that Damn fool Yankee on IA, because as you can see, ALL he can do is produce stats from conservative/right wing/racially bias sites that INGNORE information that pops his racist balloon. Thanks for (once again) showing the little dummy up, but he's just insipidly stubborn and intellectually dishonest, so he'll NEVER just acknowledge matters of fact and history.

Thank you. Touche'. Then he asks for proof that he's a racist and a bigot, and he supplies it most every post.

I don't have to prove anything. The court of public opinion (the forum, in general) says it's true. Ask around. LOL

You can't prove your allegations, so don't be asking proof of mine. In fact, never ask for that which you, yourself, are unwilling, or unable to give.

Even if that were true, which it ain't, it would be irrelevant. http://www.nizkor.org/features/fallacies/appeal-to-popularity.html

What allegations? I can prove any of mine. Try me, queer boy.
