    MOST public assistance clients are white, but then again so is most of the population. In quite a few urban communities it seems as if a disproportionate number of blacks have EBT food assistance, which generally is at least $300 monthly. It is widely seen as an entitlement. Any politician or activist suggesting that they give up their EBT will be largely ignored. $300+ monthly is the better part of a car payment.

    So I'm not sure if you're agreeing or disagreeing. What's your point here?
