The south would be better off not taking the money and forcing people back to work.
Unfortunately people in the South tend to be lazier then then people in the North who are hard working....Good luck with your dream of a working South.
Oh yeh the welfare states of NY, Mass, NJ, IL with section 8 housing and food stamps are so hard working. Get a life.
Whites? Not really. Look at the demographics.
Unemployemnt and entitlement figures show white Southerners to be on less entitlements than Northern whites.
