"mostly among blacks??" Really? I don't think so. According to welfare statics, more Caucasians are on welfare than any other ethnicity. Look up the welfare data.
Think about the following;
Blacks make up about 14% of the total U S population. Even if all Blacks were on welfare Blacks still could not be more than the total number of Caucasians on welfare.
Approximate Data:
Let's say total U S populations is 300 million (300,000,000).
Minority Populations:
Asians: 8% of 300 million = 24 million (24,000,000)
Blacks: 14% of 300 million = 42 million (42,000,000)
Hispanics: 12% of 300 million = 36 million (36,000,000)
Majority (Caucasians) Population:
24+42+36 = 102 million
300 million - 102 million = 198 million (198,000,000)
Total number of Caucasians on welfare is ???
Look it up instead of perpetuating unfounded negative racial stereotyping which tends to divide this country.
We should all be working together to correct the overall welfare problem which is too many loopholes in the welfare system with little accountability.
A lot of Blacks and other minorities are hard working folks who are also paying taxes.
