Africa is a LOT poorer then most countries, both in amount of poor countries, and how economically screwed they are.


The reason they are poor is because of some corrupt regimes. Yes, that is not the only factor that's causing this. But you can't keep donating food and expect it to fix the problem. Global action must happen. They gotta take down those regimes and re-establish better living.

Anyways, this isn't the topic we need to discuss.

White dog? Why not black dog? RACIST!

A white-colored dog and a black-colored dog are not race. Those are fur colors. If you hate rotweillers over poodles. You're a speciest.

Oddly, The Homo Sapien likes to look different geographically around the world. And we're one species.


My point was that people like finding racism where there isn't; or better yet, like to complain about non-existent issues.

The government diving up people into races does not mean one is more valuable than the other.

Blacks make up under 14% of the population. They are overrepresented: a black person is more likely to receive welfare than a white person.

Welfare queens are not a myth, there have been documented cases of people cheating the system but plenty of people on food stamps sell them for cash to buy liquor or drugs.

Not quite, because humanity, just like every other species on earth is divided into races. We're all different, and race labeling on something like a census can prove helpful.

That dosent take away that whites take up almost the same amounts.
And(points to demographics of where most minorties live), It Dosent surprise me a minority has a good percentage in welfare intake.
