PBA!!?!?!!!… The cuts affect the Chareidim disproportionately because they make themselves poor disproportionately!

I refer to the per-child benefits, v’duk.

I agree that that is reprehensible, but it would be reprehensible to make these kinds of cuts if they didn’t affect charedim and arabs disproportionately.

um, what?

The Republican cuts to welfare programs are indeed targeted to have the worst impact on minorities. Only 34% of SNAP participants are white.

Nobody intends to davka target poor minorities to the exclusion of poor whites. Cutting SNAP across the board is far different than cutting per child benefits because only chareidim and arabs have lots of kids.

If you must, the example would be if someone proposed to cut SNAP davka in Harlem.
