Massachusetts Welfare Recipients Are Spending EBT on Tropical Vacations

[IM2]

If the govt counted people living off welfare as unemployed, the unemployment rate would be 30%. Among blacks 70%. But they are not counted. If you say, "I ain't looking for work," you are not counted.

This is a lie.

I know a guy who's getting welfare from 8 states. He spends his Massachusetts EBT money in Hollywood. They haven't caught on yet, and I doubt they will.

Why should I do that?

I'm learning his methods, I might have to use them someday.

This has been going on for decades. All the blue sanctuary states do it. If you're non-white or illegal you get like $40,000 a year in freebies.

Massachusetts is 67 percent white. Whites are probably most of the welfare recipients in the state.

They are lily white libs. Yeah, they probably are on welfare.

No, learn how to understand what the english is saying.

"Massachusetts welfare recipients have been using their EBT cards while on tropical vacations to Hawaii, the Virgin Islands, Puerto Rico, and other trips thousands of miles away from their home state, an investigation by the Boston Herald revealed.

Public records obtained by the outlet showed dozens of EBT card expenditures at several popular vacation destinations, including California, Florida, and Alaska, as well numerous holiday islands.

Except this isn't the article by the Boston Herald. This has been spun, folded, spindled and mutilated by the racist, anti-democratic, anti-immigrant conspiracy theory website, Breitbart.

This site has a habit of taking a grain or two of truth from someone else's reporting and wrapping it in lies and conspiracy theories. Link to the original report and we can have a discussion.

Conspiracy theory websites distorting real reporting has been caught too many times, flat out distorting what was said.

40 years ago, the big abuse with food stamps was using them to buy cigarettes and beer. I worked 7-11 and saw the games they were playing. Penny candy bought with a dollar stamp repeatedly by a team of people Then they come in with cash to buy beer. I wouldn't let them do it. They said it was legal. I said report me.

Dude, it's true in every state.

The majority of those who receive government assistance in the U.S. are not Black. Using research from the Urban Institute (gathering data from 59 million people), the graph below presents the largest percentage of welfare recipients in 2019. The majority of recipients were white (43 percent), followed by Hispanic (26 percent), and Black (23 percent). These figures fall in line with population demographics and debunk the misconception that welfare programs are predominantly associated with the Black community.

Fact Check | Are Black people the majority of welfare recipients?

THE CLAIM: The majority of people on welfare assistance are Black. “Welfare queens” exist and they constantly take advantage of government social support programs. OUR RATING: False.

So, if 23% are black while making up 14% of the population, what does that tell you, other than you are wrong?

 

[Admiral Rockwell Tory]

There are black hispanics, so stop trying that excuse. White non hispanics are 68.8 percent of the Masschusetts population.

That is further proof that Hispanic is not a race. My grandsons are white, black and still have a Hispanic last name. My granddaughter is white with a white Hispanic mother.

Also, learn to spell Hispanics and Massachusetts, please!

Fair, but if you can afford a tropical vacation?

You shouldn't be on welfare in the first place.

So if a local goes to the Hawaiian Cultural Center and gets a snack using an EBT card… that counts as spending EBT cards “on tropical vacations”.

Way to go Breitbart

How quickly did you lose your job? What they were doing was perfectly legal.

Yet, you never reported it, so how will they know?

So what? I'm black with an Engish last name. So shut up spelling nazi, I can spell those words, I just made typos and didn't edit. So you tell the whites here that Hispanics aren't a race when they try claiming hispanics are counted as white in order to deny the high number of crimes whites commit. I find it rather trifling how people like you can't do that.

Because it's not true.

Unless they are from Hawaii, yes. Plus, EBT cards have restrictions on prepared foods.

So, if 23% are black while making up 14% of the population, what does that tell you, other than you are wrong?

It tells you that blacks are disproportionately poorer than whites. Then as studies consistenty show how blacks get paid ess than whites for doing the same work, or how blacks with colege degrees get hired less than whites with high school diplomas, it shows a pattern of white racism that continues right now.
