According to https://wiki.answers.com/Q/What_percentage_of_people_in_US_are_on_welfare
https://www.chacha.com/question/what-percentage-of-people-on-welfare-are-white,-black,-or-hispanic
- 29 million people are on welfare
- 39% white: 11,661,000
- 38% black: 11,362,000
According to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Demographics_of_the_United_States:
- US population: 313,544,041
- White: 72.4%: 227,005,885
- Black: 12.6%: 39,506,549
Math time!:
Whites: 11.661,000 / 227,005,885 * 100 = 5.13%
Blacks: 11,362,000 / 39,506,549 * 100 = 28.75%
That means the total percentage of all white people in america on welfare is: 5.13%
While the total percentage of all black people in america on welfare is: 28.75%
That was from 2012 and this next one is 2016. I can't say which is more accurate, but they both tell us that a higher percentage of black people are living off the system.

You know black men used to be hanged, castrated, dragged and tortured because white men thought they MIGHT have "disrespected" white women, right?

This is true, and terrible. That said, it has nothing to do with the problems we're seeing today. It's used as a crutch, but it's not the problem.

No, it's not an excuse and I didn't mean it as such. It was simply to offer perspective that whites can be just as violent and that things can change for the better.
But I don't think it's unrelated at all. Every action has a reaction, and to think that all that violence and hatred perpetrated against the black community had no recourse is shortsighted.
That said, everyone is still responsible for their own actions and it shouldn't be used as a crutch or excuse to be a terrible person.

I had a customer bragging how they got their sister signed up for 1,000 dollars a month in food stamps. I have a family of 5 and couldn't imagine spending 1,000 dollars a month on food.

I get what you were saying. Apologies if I came off wrong, but yes it's absolutely used as an excuse and a crutch.

I'd argue that in, let's say Chicago, 9/10 violent criminals have no idea what really went on during those years when many whites were terrible to blacks. They're just violent, bad people. Nothing at all to do with what their grandparents went thru in the 60's.

You're right, they weren't there and don't know. But they learned a violent lifestyle from the generation before them and so on. And the beginning of the the downhill slide of the black community, drugs and violence, etc. was absolutely a direct result of violence being perpetrated against them and lack of opportunity due to crow laws, unequal pay, etc. Many of whom went to war, fought for their country and had to come back and be treated like shite.
Likewise, my parents, aunts, uncles, siblings and cousins and me all graduated from college due in large part to my grandparents all having gone. And I'm sure the next generation will be the same way, all because four people decided they were going to make education a priority in their lives.

So it's only a problem in America? Is there a predominantly black nation out there that is prospering? Talking to American blacks you would think it's Whitey's fault for all their issues. So if you take whitey out of the equation then blacks should be free to prosper and grow, amirite?

It's refreshing for someone to admit that American minority culture's goal is to pay back whitey. They're certainly giving us hell.

No, there is not. Moreover, there never will be as long as the rest of the world continues to feed them.

Botswana, S. Africa, Namibia, Bahamas, Trinidad, most of the carribean I believe.

Either frick off or contribute something substantial. I know that's asking a lot from you.

None of these are prospering nations. Botswana has a decent economy but it's still very tribal. No one's splitting the atom over there.

Most predominantly black nations have been exploited for their resources and their governments destabilized by multiple nations over the centuries.

They allow themselves to be exploited. You don't see anyone walking over the British or the Japs.

Then there's places like Detroit and Baltimore that have been looted by black politicians.
