Now let’s see Baptists by state and Left-Handed by state and idiots by state. This could be a new cottage industry. Get the Facts about everything irrelevant.

How is what I posted irrelevant to the topic?

Or are you saying the whole topic is irrelevant?

the same people who receive lots of federal largesse. That's surely true some of the time — as in the case of many conservative seniors on Social Security

Social Security is FAR close to "theft" than it is to "largess"!!!

Maybe the people of the states with the most federal spending don’t wan them to waste all that money but have no control over what the Feds do.

I'm saying that both your post of where African Americans live and the original which states are moochers and all similar generalizations that form bogus stereotypes are all irrelevant.

Example of how it plays in the real world. I was brought from IL to GA to work. There were unemployed people in GA who were equally competent to do that work. But the prophet in his own country prejudice exists with many employers in GA. They assume that just because a immigrant like me is an immigrant, that the immigrant will be a better choice than the local person.

What I am saying is that for a good/better society each individual should be looked at individually and not lumped into a stereotype.

To put an individual into a stereotype is legit. Example: To say that fat person fits the stereotype of a lazy person because I know that individual is legit. But to say I see a fat person who is a stranger. I will impose the stereotype of lazy on him with no knowledge of him except that he is fat. That generalization that starts with the stereotype is illogical, irrelevant and not good for society.

...it’s more lucrative to get SSDI or straight welfare than a job.

When work is available and those on the dole decline to take it, give them a choice. Off the dole for good, or off to work and a bit of a subsidy to help out. Cut out the food stamps and replace them with staples issued according to number of legitimate family members being fed. Prison terms for fraud.
