The GOP has said Many times that "More money isnt the solution". your own party is against #4.

your #1 is pure stereotyping. People dont have kids because they think welfare will pay for them, they do it because they dont use condom/birth control and dont believe in abortion.

Also, welfare roles break down as 38% white, 36% Black. Its just as much a black problem as it is white.

#5 is again stereotyping. yes the whole dont snitch thing does happen, but it isnt a majority.

#6, Black people do respect authority, they just fear them. and this bullet point was again, based on idiotic stereotyping. Go to youtube right now and google guy punches cop. How many of those white men who punched cops were shot in this videos.......0

Its not always about race though, sometimes its just the good old boys network. You dont shoot the guy you grew up with, but you have no idea what the black guy from across town is capable of so instead of trying to wrestle him to the ground, you shoot.
I can tell you have never lived in a Black community in the inner city, so you're oblivious to the issues that clearly exist in a lot of these Black neighborhoods. The fact that you believe that welfare is hurting both communities the same proves you are clearly out of touch with reality. You're probably one of those people who marches on the street when a Black person is killed by someone outside their race but is completely silent on Black-on-Black crime.

Negative. Not interested in voting for Democrats or Republicans.

Further, what makes you think that elite of any background want their children attending school with non-elite of any background? You need to get some exposure.

Lastly, I am not here in this country for anyone to LIKE me. My family didn't come here for that. I don't care who doesn't like me or my children. While half of the Republican and Democratic peoples sit around with their dislike, we surpass them.

So why should I care? I want no part of their religion and only care for select parts of their culture in the first place. Not interested in mixing and mingling with them on any serious level.

Don't let the leftists get to you on wording.

They do it themselves.

Yes, the blacks are still on the plantation.

Instead of the Dimmies using them for "pickin cotton", they use em for their votes!

The more freebies given, the more likely it is that they'll stay on the Dimmies plantation.

That's why the Dimmies use the fear mongering tactics like: "The Republicans are gonna take away all your 'Free Stuff'.. Vote for us, we'll give you even more"!

They can. Republicans can get trapped Black kids out of their abysmal public schools and give them and their families a choice, which is something 2/3 of Black adults support:
Quote:
"Pro-voucher voters among racial minorities overwhelmingly support Barack Obama, but they are baffled by the Democratic nominee's opposition to vouchers. They also say they are frustrated that Democratic leaders appear to be more concerned about keeping the peace with teachers unions -- which adamantly oppose vouchers -- than about finding alternatives that could advance desperately needed education reforms for minority students.

...Public opinion polls also show solid support for school vouchers among minority parents. Sixty-five percent of adult African-Americans and 63 percent of adult Hispanics favor the use of vouchers, according to a national survey conducted earlier this year under the auspices of the journal Education Next and the Program on Education Policy and Governance at Harvard University. In the survey, more than half of minority adults gave higher marks to their local police than their public schools.

"There is no doubt that on this issue, ...Obama has it wrong," Martin wrote."

And Democrats are on the wrong side of equalizing the Black/White income gap:

But hey, yeah... they'll keep voting Democrat, even though nothing gets any better for African-Americans and Democrats deliberately keep Black children dumbed-down.

No, it isn't.

White population: 62.6%
Black population: 13.2%

USA QuickFacts from the US Census Bureau

Blacks are 4.5 times more likely to be on welfare.

But hey, yeah... keep voting Democrat, even though nothing gets any better for African-Americans and Democrats deliberately keep Black children dumbed-down and therefore socioeconomically oppressed.

There are plenty Republican voters on welfare, just like Democrat. Lots of them.

It seems that the percentage of African-Americans on welfare has far more to do with opportunities fully opening up to them in the 1960s. Far less time to build wealth. Some of them are sitting on the system though. It's a shame. But what is the excuse of whites on welfare?

Why is it that in one generation of being in this country, my family and those in my circles have surpassed whites, who have been in this country for generations without racial opposition? Why are so many uneducated? Why do they represent such a large percentage of those on welfare?

Wow, that's racist.

You've failed to comprehend that the percentage of Blacks on welfare is significantly out of proportion to their percentage of the population, as a whole. Blacks are 4.5 times more likely to be on welfare than are Whites. 4.5 times more likely, 450% more likely, however you want to put it.

Notice how your two paragraphs contradict each other? First you claim 50 years isn't enough time to build wealth, then you say your family did it in one generation.

That should pinpoint the problem for you.

The attention paid to black voting habits puzzles me. Outside of some districts where they can flip an election one way or another they're not exactly changing the game anywhere else.

Stop running from the question. Again, WHY are so many whites on welfare?

Nowhere in my post did I state that 50 years was not enough time. My post noted a difference between 50 years and 100 or more. Thus, one major reason for the disparity.


So answer the questions. Why is it that in one generation of being in this country, my family and those in my circles have surpassed whites, who have been in this country for generations without racial opposition? Why are so many uneducated? Why are so many on welfare? Why do they represent such a large percentage of those on welfare?
