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.

Did they vote for Hillary in any number? Do you have more information, or are you just making this stuff up. I could ask the same question about their supposed felonious diamond dealings which you allege. Please provide some documentation for the claims you have made.

Your post sounds a little prejudiced. Maybe some of these people have clannish occupations and hide some of their cash money, but not all are dishonest like that. It is actually a bigger sin that almost any other to cheat people or be unfair in business.

Also, you are right, intermarriage does create more recessive genes and thus birth or genetic defects, but not “MANY” as you say in your post. It’s not that common.

Also, believe it or not, the fact that the households are often with only one breadwinner sometimes means that the wife is taking care of all the kids AND holding down a full-time job such as teaching, so that the husband can devote his entire day to studying Torah. This is highly controversial in the Jewish world, because many of us believe that we study Torah IN ORDER TO USE THE TEACHINGS in the real world, not only for its own sake. And it seems to be unfair to the women.
