Welfare (or more broadly Entitlement) Reform, is indeed needed urgently. “Telling the truth about racial differences” (whatever those might be, and whether accurate or fanciful) will provide a stick for opponents to beat you with and derail your efforts.

IMO, a practical place to start is reining in the “ObamaPhone” program, an off-the-books welfare scheme that provides the communications infrastructure for a great deal of crime and agitation. ObamaPhones are the Community Organizers’ dream tool for spreading false narratives, building murderous angst, organizing protests and violence, and mobilizing their voters. Eliminating free communications would constrain a great deal of Leftist political activity (including organizing opposition to welfare reform), and general criminal activity. We are currently subsidizing all this, and need to stop.

I propose that the ObamaPhone program be restricted to the elderly poor and truly handicapped, with funding via tax credits administered by the IRS. The current program seems extremely vulnerable of constitutional grounds. It is a scam wherein Congress illegally delegates its powers to tax and spend to third parties who have a vested interest in expanding their taxing and spending on themselves infinitely, and without oversight. If this model were applied to other business niches (e.g., grocery stores could collect taxes from “the rich” and use the revenue to ay themselves for food doled out to “the poor”), there would be a hue and cry. We have a system of government, and this kind of thing has no place in it.

Of course the Democrats, RINO’s, Mexican billionaires, and phone companies that currently benefit would howl. Too bad.

Technical points- It’s called ‘Safe Link’ wireless, it is only an hour a month, it actually was intended and works well for people looking for work, since one can’t find a job without a call back number, and it started in 2008 before Obama took office being an initiative of the Bush administration. It is funded by the phone companies.

Our forefathers told the truth about racial differences for hundreds of years. It wasn’t until several decades ago that whites became suicidally ethnomasochistic and pathologically altruistic, attacking any other whites who deviate from the egalitarian anti-white brainwashing.
