There is a war going on and the end goal for them is genocide of my race.
News flash, yes on a percentage basis more non-White receive government assistance based on the size of their particular ethnic or racial group than White people. But the majority of people that receive public assistance in this country are White on both on a numerical and percentage basis.

Welfare issue makes political comeback

Quote:
•Though blacks are disproportionately represented among food stamp recipients, far more whites receive such assistance. When recipients identified themselves by race in 2010, 34 percent were white, 22 percent were black and 16 were percent Hispanic, the Agriculture Department said.

•Food-stamp spending has indeed increased under Obama, but its steady climb began under President George W. Bush.

•Blacks form a slight plurality in Temporary Assistance for Needy Families, or TANF, a system that offers cash assistance and is much smaller than the food stamp program. Of families receiving TANF help in 2009, 33 percent were African-American, 31 percent were white and 29 percent were Hispanic.

•Since passage of the 1996 Welfare Reform Act, those seeking cash assistance have faced strict work requirements and a five-year lifetime limit.

•In some welfare categories, rolls have dramatically declined. According to the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, which runs the TANF cash assistance program, about 1.9 million families received TANF funds last year, down from a record 5 million families in 1994.

So why has welfare emerged as an issue this election year? Discussions about anti-poverty programs certainly have a place in national campaigns, particularly during tough economic times. But University of Chicago political scientist Michael Dawson says Gingrich was using welfare as a wedge issue.

"It was a blatant attempt to resort to a 40-year-old tactic to prop up one's campaign by evoking the black-person-on-welfare trope," said Dawson, the director of the university's Center for the Study of Race, Politics and Culture. "It's a tired tactic but one that's sometimes effective in mobilizing white racial resentment."
It patently ridiculous to hold the opinion that White Americans don't receive public assistance or don't have children out of wedlock. Watching one episode of "16 and Pregnant" quickly dispels that notion.

We don't need any more people in this country that don't practice birth control. Our population is nearly 320 million now. Sure nations change but no nation should change via illegal immigration. What part of that don't you get?

No cheap shot at all. Even you admit they don't use birth control due to their Catholicism. Mexicans and other Latinos are the largest baby producers in this country and the taxpayer is footing the bill for many of these births and the ensuing welfare they are entitled to even if the parents are here illegally. You find the truth offensive?
You can remove the parts about me not getting it. I get it... I live in Mexico 2.. aka Los Angeles area. This thread isn't about illegal immagration per se.

Like I posted ealier, the reasons why they are here is entirely another thread... subject has been covered extensively. The subject was merely white babies aren't the majority now.

I don't find the truth offensive, but like most people you shove in cheap shots under the guise of "truth telling".... old game really...

You can say the same message without the snarky tone behind it... I don't mean you per se, I just mean people in general.....

You can b**ch about illegal immigrants all you want but they wouldn't be here if businesses, corporations, farmers and rich folks that want gardeners, nannies, and housekeepers on the cheap didn't hire them.

The reason there are illegal immigrants is that people have been undone by their own greed and desire for cheap labor.

How will it affect elections in the future?
Unfortunately nothing will change. It's always about policy. It's how things are done not who does them. That's what matters in life.

I think you are going to be incorrect this time.... I doubt the USA will exist as we know it in less than any 20 years. I am 60 and I expect to see this Nation fall in my time. I highly doubt I will see 80 years, and I pray for I won't.

My dad passed at age 72 in 1997 and it's just a good thing, since he was a WW-2 vet and a mild man. He would not like this nation as it is today. I am glad he doesn't have to see it.

Every sick perversion there is being made legal and the Rape of a nation, which WAS the Land of the Free and the Brave, but no more..... it is now the land of the sick and the weak....

Let God help us, no one else will.

I really don't know why the black people on here are glad.
Do you know this means you guys would have another race,possibly Hispanic,oppressing you guys?
If it isn't whites,it will be Hispanics.

I don't think that they are worried about that, since white males are not going to give up their hold on the country even if it is just 10 of them.
