Americans Are Mistaken About Who Gets Welfare People significantly overestimate the number of African-Americans benefiting from the largest programs. By Arthur Delaney and Ariel Edwards-Levy … Survey respondents’ estimation of who receives welfare tracked closely to their estimation of who gets food stamps. Nearly two-thirds of poll respondents said the program’s recipients are mostly black or that there are as many black Americans as white Americans receiving benefits. Only 21 percent correctly said there are more white than black food stamp recipients. “Across the programs people overestimate the share of recipients who are black,” said Elizabeth Lower-Basch, a senior analyst with the Center for Law and Social Policy. “It’s not surprising because we all know people’s images of public benefits is driven by stereotype.” Trump himself harbors mistaken views of who receives welfare benefits, according to reporting by NBC News. During a meeting with members of the Congressional Black Caucus last March, one member of Congress told Trump that welfare cuts, which the president had proposed in his budget, would harm her constituents, specifying that not all of them were black.
Actually its elderly boomers who've been handed everything that move to florida lmao. Most hard working New Yorkers can actually afford to stay here, its the losers who move to florida. Which is a welfare state btw.
I've been to Florida for vacation, I've been to the parks which was cool but after a while, you get bored of Florida. There's much more things to do in New York despite its problems
How is the insurance crisis going? Or the car insurance with so many people moving to FL? Or how about the low wages? I lived in FL for more than 20 years, and I am out FL. This place is insane expensive now.
You get paid *less* in Florida since there is no state income tax. Salaries are always higher in NY. The best is to retire in NY _and then_ move to Florida to get another job.
The main reason for moving to Florida is for the weather. It’s not as cheap as people think it is,you would need a New York salary to live in most cities.
I’m glad these people don’t want to move it means less people and I’d take the south any day of the week over freezing dark dull miserable cold gloomy days for 6 months.
Florida is awful! Stay out! It’s 100 degrees out! And it rains all the time! Stay out! Also if you don’t like the work WOKE you better not move to my state Florida! We use it all the time!
Please come get these other New Yorkers out our state. I was born and raised in Florida. Desantis needs to do something about these liberals. Fix your own state.
@@Nancybabt Eh it all depends. I got real people i hang with in Tampa and we all have a real good time. I'm just lucky to have those people with me. But it's good less people, move back
You went to the wrong county. Tampa, Orlando n especially Miami are the worst places to move to. Too crowded n overpriced. You just didn’t do your research
yeah....NO. I know for old people Flordia vis NY is great because of the snow and ice during the winter months but I personally HATE beach weather and overall I prefer the close proximity of everything in NY via walking, biking, and trains vs Florida where you are forced to own a car on top of Florida's pro bigotry and pro gun laws.
Lol I left and went to Texas Florida Atlanta wayyy too close 😂😂 needa get to another region .. now I live in Kansas where you can rent a house for like $800 .. can buy houses cheap.. may be the country but ain’t too worried about living
No there is no breathing a sigh of relief too many have already moved hear causing major major problems, but the thing they haven’t got a good taste for yet is the hurricanes that are coming. They are coming down here buying homes not realizing the real dangers they put themselves in and all for what because the taxes. The cost of living in Florida really is not that far off now than what it is in New York after half of them moved here. It’s simple math a kid can understand. More People = cost of living goes up.
My friend if you think people moving down there is a problem or creating a problem then the real problem is you. If you don’t like then you get the fuk out!
The weather in Florida is great, my ass. I hate hot muggy weather. The summers are bad enough here in New York State, I hate to think how the summers are in Florida. The Florida winters may be mild, but their summers sure aren't. Then there are the hurrcaines that past through Florida from time to time. I don't think most people would consider hurrcaines great weather.
@@RocketmanRockyMatrix no you don’t, by the time they get up there you get the remnants of what was a hurricane. The most you’ll get is a weak category 1 or tropical storm.
Good! Don't come down here, you won't survive. You'll be a fish out of the water. This is the south, the gunshine state. Nobody here likes new yorkers.
In Florida you get to keep all your taxes you even get to retire at 55 they didn't shut down during the pandemic other than that too many alligators too many geckos jobs Payless It's a open carry states people are way more crazier out there Nothing is open 24 hours so I rather stay here in New York
Insurance (both auto and home) is significantly higher. Our power bills doubled because the governor and legislature got rid of the Public Council (guy who negotiates power bill increases) and replaced him with a Lackey for the FPL and Duke Energy. Your pay is at least 25% lower unless you're lucky enough to snag a WFH job that "bases" you up north. And worst yet, our traffic engineers are in the pockets of Big Traffic Light. So it leads to a joke down here like "downtown Orlando is 30 minutes from downtown Orlando." And all that protected land that some of us like to do our hunting and fishing got torn up via backroom deals with the state to build more houses that developers openly say are for NY'ers only. If I became governor, first two things I would do is replace the "welcome to Florida" signs at the border with MiG-21s that say "Yankee go home!" spray painted on the side and change the state song to an Floridianized version of the protest song "Ami go home."
You know the answers people leave because NYC is getting and getting expensive and lower Manhattan people yall know is Twice rich to live there' Cmon every NYCers 😂 knows stop the caps
Great news! Less traffic, more houses on sale and nicer people moving in! Hope they (and Trump and Rudy) never come back as toxic prople are bad for others. But why is the NY Post still here? Governor De Santis is calling...
They can move to Arkansas. Similar mindset, though the cheaper for just the ocassional snow. These folks are so toxic that even the old Floridians are fed up. Was at a RaceTrac getting a quick treat, and saw a NYP shown by the doughnuts. Idk how anyone can read that brain rot!
As someone who lived here 33 years. Best advice I can give you is don't. Ya'll zurg rushed us so hard last few years that the reasons you left came here and somehow you get less on top of that than you did up there! Plus the pizza sucks because the we don't use the holy water you guys do (or so at least 49494958584 of yall that came down here remind us od that, and thr Floridians (aka ex new yorkers) drive like a 7 year old playing GTA. May I recommend Arkansas instead? It's dirt cheap and while it snows sometimes, it's nothing like the NY blizzard 1977 you get every year. And like Florida it has plenty of natural springs. And like Florida you take a MASSIVE pay cut that far exceeds the difference of the taxes you paid up there.
Florida, and California, are both 100 times better than New York City. Because they both have beaches, theme parks, and so much more to offer than NYC.
I didn't want to leave New York either, but I can't afford to go back. Plus, almost everybody I know thinks I'll be mugged there or worse. That and the anti-highway sentiment has made more problems getting around.
Grew up in bensonhurst. Live on long island currently but will be moving to Tampa bay. Dunedin or tarpon springs. 58 years old. All I want to do is go grouper fishing in Florida. And having oysters on the half shell and attending bikini contests 😉 🌴 🍷
Not all to Florida either. There's other places in between they can move to such as Virginia and the Carolinas. Those who don't like Rob DeSantis' politics they can move to California or Maryland.
Only because they had an awesome vacation here. Our glorious (though hideously underpaid) service industry goes above and beyond to make it happen. They move here and reality hits hard, they're making less here, and in comparison to cost they're paying more when they again see what percentage of their paychecks things take. Then there was the recent decision to get rid of the public council and replace them witb someone who like Power Co's. Everyone's power bills here nearly doubled. But hey, no snow! That's all that matters, right? 😂
@@naptime0143 war zone? At least in Florida we can defend ourselves! in NYC you’re a walking victim! Here people don’t f-k with other people cause they don’t know who is armed! I take dangerous freedom over that liberal shithole anyday!
The joke of the day! Boy, we have a completely different culture than new york! Come July 1st, no concealed permit required to carry a firearm. Welcome to south boy! We are a deep red state. None of that new york liberal bullshit
@@RocketmanRockyMatrix Yeah, but Florida hasn't had a democrat since the early 90s as governor and that democrat (Lawton Chiles) was a conservative, not that far left bullsh*t you got today. Florida is a deep red state, don't expect us to be like NY anytime soon. We are different people and a different culture. The gunshine state.
Florida is breathing a sigh of relief.
You said a mouthful. I can’t believe the ignorance these people dish out.

How bout we send some New Yorkers back!

New Yorkers are truly great at comedy LMAO
My move from New York to Florida was the best decision I ever made!
I've been to Florida for vacation, I've been to the parks which was cool but after a while, you get bored of Florida. There's much more things to do in New York despite its problems
@@yamilctv3984name the things that their is to do in ny besides watch paint peel and snow
Enjoy the hurricane and home insurance.
How is the insurance crisis going? Or the car insurance with so many people moving to FL? Or how about the low wages? I lived in FL for more than 20 years, and I am out FL. This place is insane expensive now.
Go back to ny
It’s a lot cheaper. I would retire down there since we tend to get paid more when working.
You get paid *less* in Florida since there is no state income tax. Salaries are always higher in NY.

As I reading this comments, hurricane Irma is about to slam Florida.
That's a great idea head to Vero Beach or weston in your going to to do south Florida. Sunrise fl is great enough.
I’m glad these people don’t want to move it means less people and I’d take the south any day of the week over freezing dark dull miserable cold gloomy days for 6 months.
It really for 3
For those people that have no choice but to rely on public assistance and cant drive whatever you do don't go to Florida.
Caucasians are the biggest recipients of public assistance.
That’s most 😂
You just described everyone who lives in florida. Its a literally nursing home state.
Florida is awful! Stay out! It’s 100 degrees out! And it rains all the time! Stay out!
Also if you don’t like the work WOKE you better not move to my state Florida! We use it all the time!
Broward / Miami Dade county all day ..... Brownsville Brooklyn to Brownsville liberty city Miami Florida.....only the real ones know how to move.
💯
And they ruined Florida in the process. Thanks. 🖕
Go to Staten Island or Long Island and ask the same questions. You’ll get a completely different response.
Lol "after the gay community"
These people are so misinformed its comically hilarious

I'm a NY'er who moved to Tampa for 6mos. I moved right back to New York. The vibe is weird and the weather is suffocating.
Wages are low. Very boring and you need a car.
Bro move to GA near Atlanta around it not in Atlanta

Yes! Don't move down here. We are full!
We don't want them in fl anyways.
Exactly. New Yorkers are the most disliked group here. They brought it on themselves.
We gonna move regardless of ya opinion and ya not doing anything about it
they cant afford to live in nyc, but f*** desantis.
What do you expect a liberal bleu crap 💩
Yeah, stay yo yankee ass in NY.
lmao but they keep coming then complain about livings in florida
No! We don't have BLM street signs.
Lol I left and went to Texas Florida Atlanta wayyy too close 😂😂 needa get to another region .. now I live in Kansas where you can rent a house for like $800 .. can buy houses cheap.. may be the country but ain’t too worried about living
You will be living paycheck to paycheck living in NYC no matter your income bracket is..😔
