i know a lot of people who abuse social security although i am not saying it is a form of handout, but just because it's from ebony magazine doesn't mean it's not true, i doubt they would display false statistics. and it's known that majority of WELFARE recepients are white single mothers.

Since white people are a vast majority, I'm not suprised that they are the majority of welfare recipients. They have the right to do so as citizens.
Illegal immigrants have no rights to any social services.
Please don't be hurt over what the racists say. You have the right to be here if you're a citizen. Personally, it isn't a color issue with me, and I believe most of us. Americans just don't condone CRIMINALS.

Yeah, but you should really compare the percentage of tax contributed by whites and then compare how much they take back through welfare and you will find that non-white people take a larger ratio of what they give compared to what they recieve. Also youre a racist and your logic is seriously lacking by just saying "oh they take the most, so they are a problem" when you didnt take into account they are also the largest group. Your survey says blacks recieve 33% of the percentage of the welfare aid, which includes social security which whites recieve at an outstanding 89% to black 9%. Assuming you truly see social security as welfare (which in my opinion is just ridiculous because you are not taking into account whites live longer and anyone who recieves it truly deserves it), black people still recieve a whopping 33% of welfare while only making up 12% of the population and paying less than 12% of the taxes contributed. White people only recieve 46%, but make up the majority of the population and since they have a higher average income they pay signifigantly more taxes. Now tell me who is really taking more than they give? Perhaps for a while the government should give you your wish and allow each race to recieve the benefits of the amount of taxes given. Asians, Blacks, Hispanics, and Whites only recieving back what they give. Then you won't have to worry about white people dragging down the economy. They will then recieve their fair share of lets say 70% instead of 46% and black people can recieve their less than 12%. Also I found it interesting that your article only compared whites and blacks, and was published in Ebony magazine in 1992.

Could it be because there are more white people and that's why ? And you and I both know that illegal aliens can and do get welfare with phony documents and fraud.
LEGAL Americans are entitled by law to the benefits they receive,ILLEGALS are NOT.There is a difference.
You really need to educate yourself more on your subject of choice.You don't seem to know a lot about the real world and who pays the majority of taxes for all of this nation that is 70% white ,to date.

OK...here is the example I will give you since you are acting "slow" right now. Hypothetically speaking I am a white single mother. My ancestors have been US citizens since the late 1800's. Right up until this very day my family and I are still paying taxes! If I loose my job or fall into some other unfortunate situation I HAVE THE RIGHT TO ASK MY GOVERNMENT FOR SERVICES!!!
Governmental services were created with tax dollars to help US citizens in time of need. They were, however, not put in place to help individuals who are not "putting back into the pool." These individuals would be illegal aliens.
People like you infuriate me. Please use some common sense.

Whites are not being given as equal of an opportunity. Let me say I know people will get mad about this but whites are still paying for what our ancestors did to other races. Our generation cannot help what happened umpteen years ago... I think that the blacks were done wrong I think Indians were done wrong and so on... But we are still paying them back by them getting more jobs cause they are minority etc... This should be about EQUAL OPPORTUNITY... Not cause you are a woman or a man or black white green purple or whatever. We are all human. We should all have equal rights for jobs etc. But we do not. It's sad. Not only that by unstraight individuals are going to come out doing better than the rest of us due to this is how the world is going. Someone I know lost their job because their boss was not straight and they started a lie on him to get rid of him so they wouldn't have to deal with him and his service to our country being in the military... They started a sexual thing on him which was a lie..... This world needs to get back to the word of God and see how to really live life correctly.... LOVE is key to alot of this problem

does the recipient need help due to his/her job being moved abroad? or due to cheap labor causing it to be impossible to make ends meet for their family of 4? due to imagrant families of 20 living in a 3 bedroom house all working the jobs that were valued skill jobs, for a 1/4 of the wages it used to bring,without paying into things like payroll tax,welfare,state,and ssi?is it due to those who bare children and received welfare,and receiving free education for them,all the while,sending wages earned illegally to family in other countries un taxed?no couldnt have any impacted on the middle class WHITE tax paying people. so ty 4 your contributions 4 what you know to be freedom we hope you have little concern 4 those that made the welfare system to begin with as it was are intentions to let illegals rape it of its real purpose.... no? **** man you need more stats lol

Illegal Mexicans never paid in a dime. They are using services that they are not entitled to, other than by BIRTH of anchor babies. Even the afterbirth is getting benefits.
If you get your feelings hurt, by the truth, too bad.

White, black, purple, orange; what's with the "color" all the time? If you need help, then you should get it. There are alot out there who shouldn't be getting it and there are alot who really need it that can't get it. I've seen it and alot isn't fair.

In many ways race is a proxy for discussions about class issues.
