The United States Government distributes welfare in an unfair matter.

As you have requested, I will respond to your questions. The number 90% is a figurative number, and not an actual average. Due to the Governments lack of welfare research, many get away with doing nothing by choosing to do nothing and simply remain unemployed. I myself can attest to this first hand as some of my own family has successfully cheated the system by remaining unemployed and wasting away their life in laziness. The truth behind the number is this, it is simply a figurative symbol to prove a point. Because no one in their right mind would openly admit to cheating a government system and committing fraud, there is no accurate average. However, the truth in the matter is the majority of the people on welfare are cheating the system and are choosing to remain unemployed. Criteria is another figurative symbol I used. We can all go on any government site and find the legal criteria to get welfare and government aid. My point in this argument is that the government chooses only to give aid to those that can give them an incentive, IE the ones that are known to be so called needy. When you ask what race receives the most assistance, I will answer this plainly. I would only like to point out that this is not a racial comment. Polls show easily that African Americans receive the most welfare out of the nation. As well, it is essential to point out that they are the ones that are perceived by the people to be needy. Yes, I do mean all types of government assistance. Food stamps and Medicaid do fall under welfare and government assistance. Real life and logic back up my claims. If I were to walk up to you and offer you a livable amount of money per month as long as you remain unemployed, would you not gladly except it and do absolutely nothing. My point is of the white people that constantly live in poverty. Those who live in the mountains or in rural areas of the south do not commonly receive welfare. It is not just an unfair system, it is fraudulent and on the brink of illegal. As for support, go and visit those communities. I have been to those areas, I have seen those people. Statistics and facts can not tell you what your eyes can see. When you walk into the hood you find high unemployment rates and men/women lounging around collecting government aid. I went to school in these areas, I know how the hoods of America look. Now go to the rural south. Whites primarily dot the baron landscape. The average yearly income is very low, some polls showing less than 20,000 dollars per year (this primarily in the mountains and in rural kentucky). I have seen these places. Families work together trying to scrape enough money together to survive. Some work on family farms, others in factories, and yet others doing whatever odd jobs are possible to find. Meanwhile, their children go undereducated because they are trying to make more money for their families. They receive some aid once in a while, but not nearly as much as those who live in the noticeably poor areas. You can ask for all the statistics you want, but what you see in those areas shows you how unjust the welfare system truly is. As for your final comment, numbers do lie. Numbers are but a generation of polls taken from people. If people lie on these polls, then the numbers are a lie. Therefore, numbers do lie in due to your reasoning. What is your stand on the situation? Do you think our welfare system is fair, or is unfair? Are certain groups of people given more so the government can look better? Keep in mind this, the majority of politicians in office are either liars or self centered, and the majority of those are both.
