These illegals are floodedwith food. Down in the valley,illegals sell their food stamps. One little baby guarantees free food for 5 years via WIC They have a large incidence of diabetics and obsity. They are not in the shadows and they are not bashful as they get what they want.
Of those who "qualify" for food stamps, Latinos have one of the lowest levels of participation... far below Whte citizens who "qualify" and far below Black citizens who "qualify".
I'm very familiar with the taxpayer funded "outreach" programs. When the outreach workers or their organizations get paid piece rate, as is sometimes the case, they always prefer to avoid Latino areas because those areas are the hardest in which to convince people to participate. When they get paid hourly or in blocks of money, as is more often the case, they find it easier to do nothing in the Latino areas because they then have an excuse that everybody accepts.
A generalization could be made that many latinos, especially women, are slightly overweight. A smaller percentage of Latinos are grotesquely overweight than either White or Black citizens. A smaller percentage are bolemic skinny than white or black citizens.
The ones who are diabetic are those who have abandoned the traditional diet for an Americanized diet, which is a significant percentage of those who have been here over 10 years.
(My expertise is Illinois with some experience MN to TX. But I only know about CA-AZ-NM from what I read and hear second hand (both Latino and non-Latino sources) .)
