Everyone needs help when it comes to housing and nutrition.  Let's set the record straight the majority of the people on public assistance are white people, seeing how they are the majority of the population. Everyone looks down on Blacks and Latinos but it's not just us, it's everybody getting over on the system. My issue with public assistance is when people exploit it and use it to jog in place. Literally, striding to do the bare minimum in life just to keep their benefits and be taken care of. Will and able people choosing sit on their behinds, is something that I will never get behind nor support. Especially, when as a community us black could be doing even better.
