Why is a religious ‘sect’ being given tax dollar-funded food stamps?
High marriage rate, extremely higher than average number of children per family, extremely high percentage of children too young to work, and if the food stamp statistic is to be believed, a population that is not shy about receiving public help, even though the unemployment rate, I am sure is low. I shop with these people at Costco in Nanuet every weekend. I can see how these oddball statistics work-—but there is a lot more to the story than calling this “the second poorest place in America”.
Looking at pictures of the village itself gives the lie to that.

I lived in New York...these guys are Hasidic Jews. They work in the diamond district often...it’s a cash economy so they can hide their true income. Thus, they are eligible for all sorts of social benefits-these guys are big scammers. They have a public school...it’s mostly for disabled because many of their kids are born with problems...intermarriage. It’s a religious community but they got their own school-unbelievable. Hillary bought their votes basically.
Isn’t this the town where the Hasidic Jews live? I think it would be the next place to Gitmo to try the terrorists. Of course, these Hasidic Jews seem to consider themselves above and beyond the law, not really a part of the greater US society.
