The numbers aren't numbering.
In the United States, the total number of white individuals receiving welfare benefits is higher than that of other racial groups due to the larger size of the white population.
Here's a breakdown of the available data:
White individuals represent the largest group of welfare recipients in terms of total numbers. Approximately 43% of welfare recipients are white, according to the Urban Institute.
For instance, non-Hispanic white individuals make up about 57% of the U.S. population but account for only 36.1% of SNAP (Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program) recipients.
In summary, while white individuals constitute the largest group of welfare recipients in absolute numbers, it is incorrect to suggest they are on welfare at a higher rate per capita than other racial groups. Groups such as Black individuals, Hispanic individuals, and Native Americans have a higher prevalence of welfare receipt relative to their percentage of the population.
So, which is it? The numbers aren't numbering. It seems to indicate that while whites are the largest group on welfare, they are not necessarily receiving benefits at a higher rate compared to other racial groups. Again, somebody is lying and it sure ain't the numbers.
