Let’s examine the purpose of welfare, which was to support white families and individuals in need as they work toward a more secure financial life. President Franklin D. Roosevelt focused mainly on creating jobs for the masses of unemployed workers,(white) he also backed the idea of federal aid for poor children and other dependent persons. By 1935, a national welfare system had been established for the first time in American history. The welfare policies lifted up the white middle class and largely excluded Black Americans. The general public in the United States has long linked welfare and race. This association has played a major role in attitudes toward the welfare system and in welfare reform. It is historically incorrect that minority racial and ethnic groups are the majority of recipients of welfare. In other words, welfare was created for white people. The corruption and mishandling of taxes allocated for welfare money going to help poor people of color has been and to this day is going into the pockets of the rich and those in charge of allocating the money to the poor people of color. Too often am I hearing of programs being created for the purpose of helping the poor, while the money for these programs are going into the pockets of the wealthy. This type of behavior explains why the poor can never rise, and it also explains why the educational system has forever been flawed among the poor. Being ignorant and deprived of a decent life puts money into the pockets of the rich! HELP IS NOT COMING AND LIFE IS GETTING MUCH HARDER WITH LESS TO BE HAD.
