Why is that? Are you one of the idiots who believe that all blacks are on welfare? And that all people on welfare are black?
The average family on welfare is white and living in a three bedroom house in suburbia.
You are always operating under some really shady premises.
I really thought your comment was with your gif of Hill Dog getting jiggy with it.
i said no such thing. when you reduce the available population of people that can be on welfare then its easy to lower the % of people on it.
sec (c)lintons policies resulted in mass incarceration, targeted on groups associated with gang violence. these groups were quite possibly on some form of state assistance such as welfare. placing them in prison would take them off that particular state assistance.
you can read about it here, article is timeframe apporpriate as well (1999)
https://web.stanford.edu/class/e297c/poverty_prejudice/soc_sec/hview.htm"The United States witnesses a significant growth in the size of its urban underclass each year. A number of sources explain that the percentage of the population persistently poor is large and rapidly increasing, that more and more teenage males are joining gangs, and that the need for welfare is exploding in cities (Jandowski 275)."
"This essay will strictly focus on jobless males and their relationship in gangs and the world of crime in urban cities, and how the combination of joblessness and crime within our neighborhoods creates a poor society."
