If you are a white American, over the course of your lifetime the federal government will, on average and on your behalf, transfer $384,109 of your wealth and income to a single black individual.
According to the data derived from the 2014 federal budget, the average annual net tax/benefit broke down as follows:
- White: -$2,795
- Black: +$10,016
Over the course of an average 79-year lifespan, a white individual contributes a net $220,805 to the system, whereas over the course of an average 75-year lifespan, a black individual receives a net $751,200. However, since there are 4.6 times more whites than blacks in the USA, the black share has to be divided among the various contributors to sort out a one-to-one comparison.

So, the net cost to the average White American of the average Black American is $384,109. Married? That’s $768,218. Got 2 kids? That’s $1,536,436. 4 kids? Now we’re talking $2,304,654 lifetime.
Diversity is expensive. Now you understand why you won’t have much of an inheritance to leave to your children. Do you really think it’s worth it? And then, those natural conservatives to the south, the Hispanics, will surely improve the situation, right? After all, immigration helps the economy! Well, not so much.
- Hispanic: +7,298
In fact, because there are more Hispanics in the USA than Blacks, Hispanics are already a bigger cumulative net drain on the economy, $411,950,000,000 to $389,710,000,000. Needless to say, the ongoing demographic change from a predominantly white society to a less productive, less white one can be expected to have even more serious negative effects on the long-term economic prospects of the United States that it already has.
To quote the original author: “The negative fiscal impact of blacks and hispanics is significant. All of this discussion of a “national debt” and “deficit” is primarily of function of blacks and hispanics. Without them, we would be running budget surpluses today, even when keeping the military the same size.”
After viewing and reading TBP “The New Truism”
https://www.theburningplatform.com/2017/07/10/the-new-truism/
Then reading this lovely rayciss ….(truth is rayciss)….
I immediately thought of Hillary’s? motto of “Forward” and then I thought it should have been “Backward” cuz that is obviously where the U.S. is going.
I have a list compiled 2 years ago that uses government figures regarding black Lives and how much the drain on society matters . If all blacks left America the financial gain to our society is astounding .
You cannot have 13.3% of a countries population with an average IQ of below 85 be considered equal to the majority white population with IQ’s over 100 .
Look at any majority black group and what do your own eyes tell you ? Yes I know Dr. Ben Carson , there are exceptions in every arena of human groups but we are looking at the average of the entire group and it is dismal . Give a group of whites a pile of bricks you get a city , give a group of blacks a city and you get a pile of bricks !
Remember our own government figures under the Obama administration tell this tale of wow ! Don’t like it look at the real condition of health care after Obama and he calls it his success ! Every place you peal the layers back you see people (liberals) scurrying about like cats covering up shit to make the last 8 years of our first black president (half white on his mothers side) appear a success . Sadly for our country no force on earth can cover up that much shit and even now the pile continues to expand to a SHIT HIT THE FAN LEVEL . Prepare to duck !
What do you mean by “be considered equal”? Voting? Are you proposing an IQ cut-off point for voters? If so, the cut-off would apply to all races right?? By the way, what’s your IQ score? (mine’s 128, not a genius but I can tie my own shoes etc, lol). Also please share your data.
How about this for starters-
The only people allowed to vote are those who have a net positive in terms of societal contribution.
If you pay more in taxes than you receive in services, you get a vote. If it is neutral or below, you do not. You could add or subtract points based on factors such as military service, number of children, property ownership, etc. The only modifier would be net benefit versus net detriment.
Universal suffrage only benefits the political party that promises the most to those who have the least. We already limit voting based on other arbitrary factors, so this is nothing new, simply a modification for the net benefit of the Nation as opposed to the individual.
I’d be fine with that arrangement and if that doesn’t sound fair, please elucidate.
Your admirable thought would be undermined by government, which is the entity that would control those eligible to vote.
Besides government lying to its citizens at every opportunity, just look at the results of BLS data of bastardized metrics to infuse ‘Confidence’ in Government. Do you honestly believe integrity will be sustained for ‘eligible voters’?
Make the metrics impossible to screw with. A score of 5 gives you the vote, each debit is a -1 each credit a +1 every bit of public information available to the voters. If you don’t want to share your personal info, you don’t get the vote.
It could easily be made idiot proof, but yes, I don’t believe for a second the government would allow for it, I just thought it sounded just and fair.
We had this once, in effect. Only white men were allowed to vote.
We should just go back to what worked.
It used to be white men that owned land.
Those white men that did not own land were not eligible to vote.
Define “net positive in terms of societal contribution”. For example, does being a nun qualify? And what about a business owner who’s low-wage employees are kept afoat with tax funded programs like food stamps and section 8? That employer may be at a net negative when we subtract the cost to the taxpayers subsidizing the employees.
If you pay more in taxes then you consume in government revenue then you should be allowed to vote. As far as the employer you deride what if he didn’t hire the low wage employees then we would have to provide 100% of their income or allow them to starve in the street. The people who pay for the government should control the government.
HSF, yours is the only proposal that makes any sense to me; I have been saying the same thing for years.
AKA: “A dog in the fight”.
In regard to Farmer’s proposal-we all know that it would not fly,no matter how good it sounds.
However,a few things that might stand a small chance of making it thru are these.
One,if you are receiving cash assistance from the government,no voting.
If you are in arrears in child support,no voting.
Most importantly,only one vote per address.
Not only would it cause many liberal women to have to compromise with their husbands,more importantly it would stop multi family ,govt supported households from having multiple votes.
I recently evicted a household of mom,her sister,her daughter,the daughter’s baby daddy x5,and an adult niece,along with about 7 or 8 minors.That is not an uncommon scenario to have so many voters in one household,though thankfully these did not vote.
Yes, because that sounds EXACTLY like a representative democracy founded on the belief that all men are created equal…
Hey, you, listen. America, since it’s birth (except for that whole 3/5 person phase and also that no-penis, no-vote phase we don’t like to talk about) has been dedicated to the ideal that one doesn’t need wealth, education, status, connections, or to meet any other arbitrary standard to have a voice, to participate in our heady, ridiculous experiment of by the people, for the people.
And listen darling, if you don’t like it – there are innumerable other places in the world with all kinds of systems of governance. Don’t let the door hit you on the way out
You start with this…
— “a representative democracy founded on the belief that all men are created equal…”
Then you follow up with this…
— “except for that whole 3/5 person phase and also that no-penis, no-vote phase we don’t like to talk about”
Those both can’t be true at the same time, so you’re mistaken on one of them.
The Constitution… which is the actual law… does not in fact declare that all men are created equal. The Declaration of Independence is not a binding contract. The founders had a lot of different beliefs. Not all of them became the law.
Equality does not appear in the Constitution. Equal protection under the law didn’t appear until 1868 so the country certainly wasn’t FOUNDED on that principle.
Voting is a legal privilege, not an inalienable right, regardless of the conflated usage of the terms these days. Otherwise it couldn’t be revoked.
You have to go back, and the door will hit you on the way out.
Universal suffrage has been a universal failure everywhere, in every “Democratic republic” the world has ever seen.
Yes, this is how it SHOULD be!
It was called a ‘literacy test’ and it was the norm for most of this nation’s history. People who were mentally defective to the point they could not answer a few basic questions about how our government worked had no place casting a ballot.
As long as the test was reasonable and was the same for all voters any ‘disparate impact’ had to be the result of low intelligence or some mental condition like senile dementia. Do you think it a good idea to allow a person who does not know his own name or where he lives to vote?
128 is probably b.s. given you cant seem to function basic logical reasoning skills and need to be spoon fed data that is fairly simple to look up yourself.
According to IQ data compiled by the military decades ago the average black IQ is 85 the average white IQ 100 the average East Asian IQ is 105. When you look at different races & compare people with the same IQ the outcomes are the same. Please don’t bragg about your IQ . It’s very unseemly. I am anticipating your next lie the military is racist. Sorry red diaper doper baby the data wasn’t aggregated by race until decades later & not by the military. Stupid ignorant lazy & stoned is no way to go through life.
With the current importation of uneducated and unemployable “migrants” from all sorts of places like Central American and North African countries I expect the cost to go up substantially over the next decade or so.
So all you educated and employable White people, go get a second job to cover it.
Is that what they mean when they say white privilege?
Nigga please……..
Since Lyndon Johnson’s Great Society programs (1964 start) coupled with the 1964 and 1965 Voting Rights Acts the US has “invested” over $25 Trillion dollars in social and welfare programs and all we have to show for it is Black Lives Matter, Transgenders and the residual of the far left victim groups all flailing about looking for resources, revenue and rights…………
“Post hoc ergo propter hoc (Latin: “after this, therefore because of this”) is a logical fallacy that states Since event Y followed event X, event Y must have been caused by event X.”
Rabbit….does a logical fallacy ever become a fallacy itself, by other data proving the original premise?
If you have “other data” showing a causal relationship between event X and event Y, please share it.
How evasive of you – its probably due to 128.
there has been a long string of data posted in a myriad of articles, not only on this blog but many others…in fact the Bell Curve is a compilation of data over years and years of testing and test takers.
But..I am sure Rabbit is an ivory tower lib…living in the whitest area in upper mid class or upper class never to interact with a black individual but for when a situation calls for it and then is overly nice to the point of ridiculousness.
Rabbit,
I have a question for you if you’re still on this thread.
There is obviously a large amount of dysfunction in black America,and a large amount of frustration and rancor about it in white America.
What would you do to fix the problems-I’m interested in both small fixes and radical changes?
Assuming a fallacy is also a fallacy.
Tu es stupri escor lepis.
Thomas Sowell does an excellent job of supporting this position in repeated works. btw, and blames the same “programs” (along with the Hart-Cellar immigration act of 1965). Walter Williams has also written on this matter.
It’s fact, not opinion Marsh.
For 25 Trillion we got the scenic parts of Chicago, Detroit, Baltimore, St Louis, Watts, Birmingham, Atlanta, Miami, Cleveland etc. And since you can’t see the obvious Mr 128 so-you-say: ie, that Black is Bad normally (X then Y): Are you sightless blind or just a mentally blind Useless Idiot?
— “over $25 Trillion dollars in social and welfare programs and all we have to show for it is Black Lives Matter, Transgenders and the residual of the far left victim groups…”
You’ve got it a little bit inverted. We spent $25 Trillion Dollars FOR those things.
We get more of what we pay for, and if we *pay* people for being dysfunctional we’re going to get ever more and more dysfunction. We can blame the individuals all we want but fact is these programs are guaranteed without fail to create the absolute worst in those populations.
Without the spending, those things wouldn’t exist and those populations would instead have generated the most functional forms of themselves that others wanted to work with or voluntarily assist… or starved… which means problem solved.
I’m sure that besides more illegal kids, Welfare, crime, drugs and prostitution, that Blacks also have more car wrecks, have more illnesses, are more likely to accidently burn down their house, steal more, produce more mentally and behavior handicapped students, engage in more fights and property destruction, and die younger. All things that cost Whites more. The irony is that you couldn’t pay anybody to take them and they are flooding into Europe and Florida like starving rats.
I’ve read that without blacks in NYC, the police force could be cut by 90%+ Multiply that by the first couple hundred large cities, throw in the ER costs for gunshots & stabbings and you’re talking some serious coin. Add in the court & prison costs for good measure.
The fact is 100 years ago, with segregation, every large city in this country was very livable. My fathers and uncles knew their shit. I once ventured into the black neighborhood in s Philly and was chased down the street in short order by a gang of them throwing bottles and rocks at me. When I got home, I told my Italian family expecting them to get pissed and…who knows, they were a tough bunch. Instead they climbed up my ass for being that stupid.
97% of violent crime in NYC in 2018 was perpetrated by people of color, according to an 18 page report by the NYPD available on the internet.
Ok low life sub-human behavior on display nationwide and what was the majority of trouble makers race ?
Proving just exactly how much black Lives really matter ! That makes me a racist or does my observations viewing all the incidences tell the real story about mental capabilities and violent behavior among blacks ?
kill all niggers there is no other way
Or put them back where we found them, cut off from them (no aide or other BS) and let nature take its course. What this article DOESNT mention, is that white nations ALSO keep many non-white nations afloat with donations, contributions, and foreign aide. If it weren’t for the white race, nature would have eradicated 2/3rds of blacks long, long ago.
You know, when you see those places that still live in primitive conditions, if you ask the question “Why are they still in the stone age”? You get the same answer- “They were cut off”. But they never finish the statement, because it SHOULD be “Cut off from white Europeans”.
Even today, there are still primitive tribes in the world of EVERY RACE except Caucasians. That should speak volumes as to why.
wew I must have had too many, I started to reply to a comment on a 6 year old article 🙂
Well, apparently your not the only one.
The thing is, people need to know stuff like this, but its censored into oblivion. And if something drastic doesnt change, there are some dark and violent years ahead. Perhaps not right away, or even in 2 or 3 years, but it IS inevitable.
