So much anger about welfare.

Only when those dirty niggers are involved.  When it's white people, it's "assistance."

Eh, there's plenty of folks who resent giving money to other white people.

True but they are actually wealthy.

[Eddie Teach]

Nah, they just have to be wealthy enough to perceive the government is taking more from them than it's giving in return. People are naturally greedy bastards.

[garbon]

Maybe your people.

[Eddie Teach]

"Actual wealthy" people who resent taxes are even greedier.

[garbon]

Of course, they also have more money on the line.

They don't riot over it.  They don't actively attempt to take away their vote.  They don't lynch.

[Eddie Teach]

Who's been rioting over welfare?

[CountDeMoney]

You know it as GOP legislation.

Guest post from my niece this time.

Again I thought Welfare pretty much went away in the 1990s. Ah well.

I wonder why so many clickbait articles are always bit on the schadenfreude. Somebody is always 'pissed' or screwed over somehow even when it is actually not a big deal at all.

Edit: The article is not about welfare at all it is about Food Stamps. I forgot that food stamps are the new thing to whip the masses into an outrage about. So why did they use 'welfare' when they were discussing food stamps?

Because, as CdM said, it can only be the same thing if it targets the same people. Welfare = black people. No one within the target audience who heard Reagan's "Welfare Queen" imagined a white woman.

Black royalty in America? Life isn't a comedy.

Eddie Murphy has many roles to play though.
