    Whites are 59% of the population and get 40% of welfare.

    Blacks are 13% of the population and get 27.5 % of welfare.

    Read what I said again. There are people getting federal money that we didn't ask for. We can't control what the feds give in Medicaid or food stamps. Take that away and we don't receive more money. We here didn't ask for it, don't want it and don't need it. Got it?


    If we could turn it down we would.

    Lol...you may not have personally asked for it, but the fact is, those are the states that take more than they give. Their budgets and spending are dependent on Federal dollars as are their poor. You can blame it on "slums" and "Democrats"...but it's not true.

    The majority of these taker states are Republican.

    States do not give money. Taxpayers do. States might get some block grants for some things. Most of the money goes to individuals, not states.
    Call your state legislators and insist they approve the Article V convention of States to propose amendments.


    I pledge allegiance to the Constitution as written and understood by this nation's founders, and to the Republic it created, an indivisible union of sovereign States, with liberty and justice for all.

    Oddly enough, the 4 blackest states in country all made the list.
    Whoever criticizes capitalism, while approving immigration, whose working class is its first victim, had better shut up. Whoever criticizes immigration, while remaining silent about capitalism, should do the same.

    More whites, both by percentage of those receiving SNAP and in raw numbers, get SNAP than blacks.

    If it makes you feel better to move the goal posts, feel free.
