A little over 30 years ago I was unable to work due to a very violent crime by 'a person of color' (who just happened to be milking the system for EVERY POSSIBLE entitlement he and his wife could - DESPITE NOT qualifying). I was in dire straits and someone suggested I apply for food stamps - the black woman who reviewed my case actually told me verbatim - "You're the wrong color (to qualify)."
So unless you're actually a 'person of color'* you can forget the entitlements.
*not only do I comprehend that white is a color, I also get the fact that the color white is made up of ALL the colors of the spectrum.

Wonder what the odds are of a white dude getting a 3 or 6 month food card?

Odds are better if you take if from a black dude. Otherwise, a single white dude getting ANY assistance? Zero. We are the bottom of the barrel, my friend.
I try to stay out of race related discussions, but man, a single white guy in our country, is an expendable resource. If you are working, you get taken from. If you are out of work, you are left to die. Sad, but true.

You mean you trust the Dick Morris that was behind Clinton? Shirley you jest!
I am not doubting his numbers, but when he "switched sides", we have to look for what the angle is. Mittens likes Obummer care too. Taxes will go up no matter what. SS payments will automatically decrease soon when the return on bonds doesn't cut the mustard anymore. More payroll taxes to support our grandparents and great aunts that are leaching off of us and thinking it is not enough.
