I'd like to know from women why men who don't make much aren't wanted by women, most men I know, especially black men aren't dating at all and they're over 30. Is it a cultural issue that blacks do or is this more common from all women?
most women dont care that much about guys money. Its more about the guy being comfortable in his own skin, who has a plan and an interresting life. Having money, would be a logical thing to believe, but women do not behave based on logic. If a girl is attracted to a guy, its her emotions that tell her so, and she acts strictly based on those emotions. Yes, there is a small group of women called gold diggers, but most guys like myself can spot them a mile away. good day.
It's the whole package, you can't live on love alone. If the guy has zero money there is no way a woman want's to support a guy. What type of income are we talking? Someone under $40,000 a year, for a single guy thats not bad, for a family thats too low.

Ahem! Of course most women are not golddigers and they are ruled by emotions to a great degree, but all in all I think women tend to be more rational and cerebral than men when choosong long-term partners, perhaps because there is more at stake for them, and that's where the provider role comes to play. Just my opinion.
As a woman I expect a man who is over the age of 30 to have a stable and strong source of income. After at least twelve years of being able to have a job and hopefully after a college education I expect a man to have made something of himself. If after a decade you haven't done that then why would any woman want to be with you?
Women saying they don't care if the guy is poor is like men saying they don't care if the woman is ugly and fat. Now, is money (for women) or looks (for men) the most important thing in a relationship? Maybe not unless someone is superficial but we can't deny they do play an important role.
It has nothing to do with money and everything to do with ambition. If someone is working minimum wage but going to school full time I would not knock anyone for that. I'm pretty self-sufficient and don't want or expect to be taken care of by anyone, so I would definitely date someone with little to no money as long as they had aspirations.

I have never, nor would I ever, date a man based on the size of his wallet.
Because I work and I make money at my job. Because I am not financially supporting a man as if he was my child. He doesn't need to be Donald Trump. But asking for someone who has similar finances as you isn't asking for the moon, IMO.
