Hope you are kidding. Of course, there are more whites on food stamps in the U.S. Non- Hispanic Whites make up 63% of the population, yet only receive 37% of the amount spent on food stamps. On the other hand, Blacks, while making up a mere 13% of the population, receive 27% of food stamp expenditures. In other words, blacks are MUCH more likely to be on food stamps than whites.
By the way, under Obama, the amount of money spent on food stamps has increased a whopping 77%. While people like to gripe about the farm bill, 67% of the entire USDA budget is now allocated to paying for food stamps.
