The government is vicariously saying that the amount a person needs to sustain themselves is more than what a particular profession pays.


So they need to find a different job or a second job.

We have trouble filling certain jobs where I work, so we up the pay for that particular job. Then guess what? We have more applicants that are better qualified.

Do you even Economics, bro?

dont know how so many of you have this perception that whites dont have a sector of their population also suffering. I will never make fun of those people or mock their situation. I dont want to see anybody suffer. But its long past the time we as a nation be honest about the welfare distribution so we can legitimately fix the problem without bias or contempt.


There are quite a few whites on welfare.

But blacks are 13% of the population but are 40% of welfare recipients

You don’t know how to interpret statistics.

Unemployment shouldn’t be used in welfare statistics.

Unemployment is an insurance paid by employees and employers.

The fact that it is used for this study tells me they have an agenda.

You're right. There are just as many whites as blacks on welfare.

So why is it when we complain about welfare we get called racists?

I agree entirely. And would add that if it requires qualifications you don't have, you should work to get those by the very means you just stated.
