    Even if what you said was true, there are plenty of other states where the majority of food stamp money goes to Caucasians.

    When whites who currently use food stamps on a 1 in 12 - 13 basis start using it on the same level as blacks on a 1 in 3 1/2 basis, get back to me.

    Of course my dear you post is as always pure bullshyte.

    Nationally, most of the people who receive benefits from the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program are white. According to 2013 data from the U.S. Department of Agriculture, which administers the program, 40.2 percent of SNAP recipients are white, 25.7 percent are black, 10.3 percent are Hispanic, 2.1 percent are Asian and 1.2 percent are Native American.

    Of course, you don't understand proportions which tells the true story when comparing races.

    Until 40.2% is 5 1/2 time greater than 25.7%, blacks as a group use them on a far greater basis.

    UBI is nothing more than a corporate subsidy. Guarantees them cash flow to buy more robots to kill more jobs.

    Yes, Blacks do use it on a greater basis, but nowhere near the bull shit you posted.

    Not if those jobs are killed, which is what he was talking about.

    Doesn't comprehend that as a percentage of the population, blacks are far more dependent on Government welfare.
