Minnesota: ‘Nearly Every’ Somali Household with Children Is on Welfare
Breitbart ^ | 10 Dec 2025 | John Binder

More than 8 in 10 households headed by Somali refugees in the state of Minnesota are on one or more forms of American taxpayer-funded welfare, new data published by the Center for Immigration Studies (CIS) reveals.

The data, based on 10 years of data from the Census Bureau’s American Community Survey (ACS), shows drastic disparities between native-born American households and Somali-born households in Minnesota, where nearly 80,000 residents have Somali ancestry compared to zero who had Somali ancestry in 1990.

In particular, the data shows that 81 percent of Minnesota households headed by Somali refugees are on one or more forms of welfare, including 27 percent who are on cash welfare, 54 percent who are on food stamps, and 73 percent who are on Medicaid. […]

Welfare use goes even higher for Somali households where children are in the home, the ACS data finds.

For example, 89 percent of Somali-headed households with children in Minnesota are on one or more forms of welfare, as 86 percent are on Medicaid. About 62 percent of Somali households with children in the state are on food stamps, while 23 percent take cash welfare.

Almost every person with an IQ less than 70 is on welfare.

The average Somali IQ is 67.

Intelligence is literally the MOST INHERITABLE trait from parents to children.

We imported morons.

Of course. They’re just parasites. They add nothing to any country they infest.

The liberal response is that it is terrible that almost 2 in 10 households headed by Somali refugees in the state of Minnesota are NOT on one or more forms of American taxpayer-funded welfare. It is not fair that they are being left out.

And how many are working 'under the table' keeping wages for American blue collars workers low? (It's easier to work cheap if you have a government source of income) Any statistics on this? And if not, why not? Where are the pollsters?

It’s offered to them upon arrival. Wish we could deport them all, but unfortunately most are now US citizens. We’re stuck with hundreds of thousands of these cretinous leeches.

They laugh at us. Why work when our country will pay you not too? No wonder they all want to come here.

That IQ number was cited by Richard Lynn. Best not to promote him.

Certainly worse than what’s reported about Merkel’s “guests”, who are now known as “international protection applicants” after going through a bunch of different and equally-inaccurate nomenclature.

How about sending $45 million a week to the Taliban while we are 37 trillion in debt? Rep. Burchett is trying to stop that madness. Wasn’t leaving billions in hardware there when Biden pulled out enough?
