This is true although some posters on this board think that's the case. My wife used to work at the Department of Children and Family Services in BR and used to see just as many white people getting LA Purchase cards as black people.

Hey what are the Scottsdale city public pools like? Aren't some of them pretty decent?


Only if you consider resort like pools with lazy rivers and slides nice. The one in McDowell Mountain Ranch has those and it is SICK! Chapparal Park by you is meh, Cactus pool is ok.

These changes are being proposed in KS. Their demographic is 87% white. While I could not find the breakdown of which races collect welfare, I would bet that most of them are white.

Since welfare was designed to be a temporary thing for those who could not find work, maybe welfare recipients could be told where to show up to work in order to receive benefits. Once they find a job of their own, they can move on, as designed.

And put a tracking implant in their necks that notifies me when they enter my neighborhood. Also, they should have to wear clothing that makes them easily identifiable. Like white and black stripes or orange. Also, limit the size of their rims to 18". And separate bathrooms of course. 




I like it.

Except that 2 year span where you "couldn't find work" so you sat around smoking weed all day, hippie.

If they would prefer to work picking up litter and mowing grass, or whatever task they are assigned, fine. But they need to work to eat from the public, or private, trough. Compensation would be based on hours worked and performance, just like real life.

Elderly and physically unable to perform excluded. (Being fat does not exclude you)

Yep, that's it. All because I wanted to sit at home instead of making 25$/hr like I was.

Eta...didn't sit around either. Got an associates degree, backpacked, and climbed mountains. All on your dime bitch. DWI.

Yeah but I'm white and the rivers around here are sweet to swim in.

I don't do pools. The poors are there.

You just have to find ANYTHING you can to relate it back to race or oppression just like every other black person that makes excuses instead of seeking to fix the problem within their own group and accept the responsibilities that come with doing so.


You're right. White people are fixing their own problems in Kansas. Kansas has a 5% black population, so this welfare problem is predominantly white.

Kansas has a white population of almost 90%.

They should have to do SOMETHING in order to get the money. We could require that they pick up trash, clean government buildings, work at local parks etc. Make them spend 10 hours a week looking for a job, 10 hours learning a skill and 20 hours working. Also, the food they get would be delivered to them at work once a week in a package and it would be just things like rice, beans and government cheese. They could take possession of it each week after they pass their weekly drug and alcohol test.
