Statistics on race and welfare for the USA

There seem to be some misconceptions in the MSM about race and welfare in the United States.  For instance, you often hear it stated that more whites are on welfare than blacks.  After combing through the numbers, however, you find that the opposite is true.

The racial breakdown of the USA (2010 census) is:

63.7% White
16.4% Hispanic (presumably mostly mestizo or Amerindian)
12.6% Black

The racial breakdown of welfare recipients is:

Of those on welfare, 33.3% are black, 31.2% are white, and 28.8% are Hispanic.

So, clearly whites are drastically underrepresented in welfare recipients, while blacks and Hispanics are both overrepresented. Contrary to the illusion presented by the MSM, both in total numbers and proportionally more blacks are on welfare than whites.


Updates:

A recent report (by CIS) shows that 74.7% of Mexican immigrants with children use some form of welfare in the USA.  (A racial breakdown of Mexicans is here.)

  3. Looks like there might be some truth to the "black welfare queen" stereotype after all...

  4. In short, white people pay taxes so blacks and mestizos can enjoy handouts. I don't see this ending any time soon.

  5. Walking by the welfare office in Saint Paul I see people pull up in high end SUV's with diamonds jewelry and designer clothing. They collect their check or load up their EBT card and off they go. These people need to be STOPPED! Am I a racist for noticing they all seem to be black? Didn’t they get jobs with the free cell phones our idiot president gave them? I guess they just use them to sell the weed I constantly find in their cars. I am not racist; it's not my fault that the majority of the people I hate are the same color. GET AN F'N JOB! I know, I know, you can’t find work. Bull spit! You just can’t find a job that pays like a pro athlete or rapper. Well guess what...most of us can’t find that type of job. Instead I get up every day, take care of my kids, go to work, help my neighbors, am kind to strangers, pay taxes, and pay for you completely worthless people to sit on your asses and pretend like your being held back by the man. You as a minority have more handed to you than ANY white man alive today! The reason more white people have good jobs has nothing to do with race. We try, that’s it. You are not entitled to anything in this world! If you are waiting for someone to come along and hand you a life, you have a rude awakening coming. One more thing, for a race that demands so much respect you are the single most disrespectful race on this planet! Go F yourself, and thanks for taking the time to read this.
