Do you dislike black people...honest question. The prevalence of the issues that you bring up does not negate the prevalence of the issues that she brought up. There is no way to say "well black people kill each other so illicit drug use among whites is not an issue". They are both issues and they both deserve to be addressed by all citizens, not just "the blacks" or "the whites" lol. Both issues cost us hard working tax payers plenty of money.

Still, almost two thirds of the population, so naturally they will also account for most recipients in absolute terms.

I think relative and per-capita numbers are much more meaningful when analyzing such developments.
If you go back to my original post, I stated that whites are the largest recipients of welfare benefits whether expected or not. But it is the current race baiters that will try to prove otherwise when facts are facts while trying to insult my education. It didn't work! It tells what little emphasis those baiters put on evidence when it comes to their house. I guess the Department of Ag, Census Bureau report and the Department of Health are all liars and fudge stats according to the baiters.

I know they are more accurate than the poster that tries to question education. Did they're education teach them to do more research before trying to degrade? Haha, yeah right!

Facts relevant to what? They're meaningless unless you compare them directly proportionately. How do you not understand that? Serious question.

No, I like facts. And Math.

I realize you don't like the reality that the facts and Math present, but that's your problem, not mine.

It's been explained to you but you're still apparently incapable of understanding basic 10th grade Math and Statistics. Your problem, not mine.

Did I dispute any of your facts? I'm able to objectively see both of those things as issues that should be addressed with my fellow countrymen. Do you, for some reason, believe that both issues should not be addressed or that one issue is more important than the other? Keep in mind that you do not know my race, background, education level or political leanings so that should not contribute to your answer.

There is something I notice. When it comes to Black out of wedlock births, there is a heavy emphasis on the man. In these conversations, the vast majority of the blame is put on the men. However, it takes TWO(2) people to make a baby. The man had a role in creating the baby, but so did the woman. Unless rape is involved, no one can make a woman have sex. She can say no. Or if she chooses to have sex, there is birth control out there. Yes, it is a man's responsibility to use birth control. It is a woman's responsibility too. Both are responsible for making sure a pregnancy doesn't occur.

It's irrelevant according to who, you but not by the government who has money to lose? Stop trying to spin. It's not working around your false narrative. It is incomplete and inaccurate as proven by the chart provided by the 2015 Census Bureau by population and race. Anyone feel safe from the baiters? Trying too hard when it is crumbling by your prejudice rhetoric. Bye

I think you are both correct, depending on what you mean by "largest".
It's like saying the US has a bigger GDP than Luxembourg. In absolute terms it is correct because the US is much bigger, but per capita Luxembourg's GDP is almost twice as high. So, when analyzing the differences between those economies, it makes more sense to compare the per-capita GDP.
