But there is a high use of state taxpayer money in the form of welfare.

I just checked here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kiryas_Joel,_New_York

It says "the village has the highest poverty rate in the nation, and the largest percentage of residents who receive food stamps."

That is interesting.

Even Israel has problems with the ultra orthodox on welfare.

I recently watched a news story about that.

So then, Orthodox Jewish and "mainstream" Jewish communities really do differ greatly.

But, welfare is one thing. Murder is quite another.

This Board of Ed member shouldn't be making any decisions about education.

She is undoubtedly anti-semitic, and has much less to lose than a white politician by expressing it. Her community cannot stop the ultra orthodox influx by legal or political means - the ultra orthodox have every right to relocate and buy property.

The ultra orthodox have enough political influence that they won’t be investigated for discriminatory renting and selling and advertising. If you can deliver a near unanimous bloc of 70,000 votes in Ocean County, either for D or R, you get left alone on things like that.

Blacks have, or used to have, control of a lot of prime location real estate in NYC, Chicago, Miami, Oakland, LA, etc., because of high crime rates, violence and hostility to outsiders. It’s a working strategy but the ultra orthodox are going to win south Jersey City.
