I agree with you there. When you see men with 3 women on the string and 5 kids among them, there must be men who aren't having any children or relationships. That's just the math.

It's funny how no one posts or starts a thread in large numbers about the higher rate of drug abuse among whites. Misuse of prescription drugs, illegal drugs, and binge alcohol. But hundreds of minority statistics.
In 2000, non-Hispanic black persons aged 45–64 had the highest rate of drug-poisoning deaths involving heroin (2.0 per 100,000). In 2013, non-Hispanic white persons aged 18–44 had the highest rate (7.0 per 100,000).
Right now, whites have the highest rate of illegal drug use. 2.6 vs 1.8 among blacks. Other minorities lower rates as well. p228.
Poverty is almost equal among black and white people. But race baiters will start posts that are otherwise. There is a difference of .5-.8 giving room for error. P215.
Now if that's not more damaging and dangerous than the OP's post I don't know what is...
So let's address all problems not just problems among minorities because the race baiters believe only white hands is clean. Minorities won't fall for it. We are diverse and different. We are proud of that. Every race has issues. Most people aren't ignorant to that even though the race baiters here try it every time with their bubble of pointing a finger at one group instead of their own. I'm glad that MOST white and minority people on this forum are smart enough not to fall for it.
You make good points. Maybe you should start a thread?
Marriage is an arcane paradigm instituted as a method of control over sexual and reproductive resources.
Many marriages are terminated anyway so the importance of marriage is a placebo... Really.
A successful upbringing has more to do with the quality of parenting and the environment anyway. So long as the child doesn't really experience much harm and benefits from caring parents, marriage doesn't matter that much...
Notion there, maybe there's an association between quality of person and those who choose to marry but... That's not examined... There's no real challenge to marriage licensure.

Therein lies the rub...
Why is it that Democrat voters and their children are MUCH more likely to need public assistance than GOP voters? What are they doing wrong?

Good question. I'm here more for information and advice than to start a race war. I have friends and family from many cultures. 3 of my best friends are white and Indian, 2 sisters in laws that are white and Mexican. I would like to help people, not afflict prejudice and hatred among people. If it is a post to better communities, fine. But all these subtle threads about women and minorities are out of hand.
For example, if I post a thread about women and sexual harassment as a male. I expect them to inquire about action to make the situation better or find out more answers out of curiosity, not degrade women for speaking up. That does nothing. That problem doesn't go away.
If it is a numerous thread to continuously bash immigrants and minorities, you need to look in the mirror because clearly, you aren't working on your own problems in your own house, showing complete bias.
I watch Intervention on A&E for years and the statistics they show on drug abuse among white suburban middle to rich neighborhoods and communities have become too hard to handle. Stealing, killing, abuse etc is a danger. You know the first thing most companionate and humane people think?
How can I help? Not, OH NO those white people are a danger to society and I need to stay away.
Minorities understand that most white people don't spew racial prejudice but the ones that do are a danger to society when in a position or authority of power.
Note that Democrat voters are also a huge drain on society.
Report from a few days ago! Never said just food stamps. I'm addressing the welfare system as a whole. You do the same.
In fact, whites are the biggest beneficiaries when it comes to government safety-net programs like the Temporary Assistance for Needy Families, commonly referred to as welfare.
White people without a college degree ages 18 to 64 are the largest class of adults lifted out of poverty by such programs, according to the Center on Budget and Policy Priorities. The think tank’s 2017 report stated that 6.2 million working-age whites were lifted above the poverty line in 2014 compared to 2.8 million blacks and 2.4 million Hispanics.
When it comes the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, or SNAP—the initiative formerly known as food stamps—the numbers look similar.
Just over 40 percent of SNAP recipients are white. Another 25.7 percent are black, 10.3 percent are Hispanic, 2.1 percent are Asian and 1.2 percent are Native American, according to a 2015 Department of Agriculture report.
Now address the high rates of herion and meth use? Dont' forget mass killings!
