I used to be on the other side of this issue.
I thought it was a great idea to cut entitlement programs. It would deter illegal aliens from coming here. It would encourage blacks to migrate to other states. I was looking at the issue through a racial lens.
Years later, I realized it wasn’t a racial issue. The biggest beneficiaries of entitlement programs are the White working class. These are the people who we claim to stand for and want to help. Are we helping them by making healthcare more expensive? Are we helping them by making college tuition less affordable? Are we helping them by making their grocery bills more expensive when their wages have stagnated and their average household income has declined?
These people don’t have billions of dollars to invest in puppets and to hire armies of lobbyists to camp out on K-Street to ensure that their interests are advanced in public policy:
“The Trump administration is proposing to save billions in the coming years by giving low-income families a box of government-picked, nonperishable foods every month instead of food stamps.
White House OMB Director Mick Mulvaney on Monday hailed the idea as one that kept up with the modern era, calling it a “Blue Apron-type program” — a nod to the high-end meal kit delivery company that had one of the worst stock debuts in 2017 and has struggled to hold onto customers. Mulvaney said the administration’s plan would not only save the government money, but also provide people with more nutritious food than they have now. …”
Conservatives are not our secret friends.
They don’t care about White people. They’re only cynically dog whistling the racial aspect of these issues to accomplish their ideological goal of rolling back the welfare state. The only reason we have so many Hispanics in our communities is because they come here to work for capitalists who ensure that the borders are kept open by bribing Republican politicians with campaign contributions. They rail against “the welfare state,” but are desperate to bring in more Joses and Pajeets by expanding legal immigration and guest worker programs. They’re working at Trump’s hotels!
Conservatives are motivated by class, not race. This is what unites their neoliberal economic agenda from tax cuts to entitlement spending to deregulation to trade policy to amnesty. It is all about rigging the system in such a way that it benefits the wealthiest people in America. Those people also tend to be Jewish donors who want American soldiers to fight their wars for Israel in the Middle East.
Welfare for Israel is sacrosanct to conservatives. In fact, we are going above and beyond our usual disbursement of welfare to Israel by funding their $705 million dollar missile defense programs. Welfare for the military is also sacrosanct to conservatives. We need $700 billion dollars to finance a military that is used to defend the borders of countless countries across the world other than our own. Those troops are also more likely to be used against us one day than to repel a foreign invasion.
In theory, the benefits of voting for the Republican Party are supposed to outweigh the costs of doing so. It is worth it to cut investment in infrastructure, education and healthcare to pay for tax cuts for billionaires … because, because Trump is going to build a 30 foot border wall, deport millions of illegal aliens, outlaw abortion and do all these the other things to save White Christian America.
What if Trump ends up keeping none of those promises, but succeeds in cutting Medicaid for poor White families in Indiana and Kentucky? Are we really making their lives better? That’s how I think about the issue now after watching this bait-and-switch time and again.
Really, is there any reason to vote?
I voted for Trump in 2016.
The only way I’d vote again is if a Paul Nehlen type ran against Trump in the 2020 primaries, similar to Pat Buchanan’s run against George HW Bush in 1992. Trump has stabbed the White Working Class in the back, a key part of his base.
I wouldn’t be surprised if Trump becomes a one term President, because of this.
YOU WANT ME TO PAY YOUR BILLS FOR YOU, YOU FUCKING LAZY SACK OF SHIT?????????????? THIS ARTICLE PISSES ME OFF SO MUCH. THIS IS WHY I HATE RICHARD SPENCER AND HIS ILK. NOT BECAUSE HE IS A VILE RACIST (WHICH HE ARTICULATES WELL) BUT BECAUSE A SOCIALIST WILL NEVER BE ANYTHING BUT A BITCH IN MY EYES.
GFY
@Eisenkreutz,
Six thousand Jews may have died in the holohoux but I wish twelve million had perished. Don’t worry-one day…
Trump should be in the WH to serve Americans-not Israel.
Lazy bastards.
Don’t they realize muh free market rewards hard work! No, it actually doesn’t.
Still better than starvalism.
The type of food that will be given to the whites will be filled with sugar, hydrogenated oils, artificial coloring, etc. This will only make their health worse.
I know some whites who are on Nutrition Assistance. These are whites who are sickly (some born with health problems) and will not be helped by this. How about the elderly? Many rely on Nutrition Assistance for some help in putting food on the table.
I voted for Trump, but in the future I think I might do what I did before–simply not vote at all. He is doing what all Republicans do-benefit the wealthy at the expense of those who are economically distressed, which does include many whites (the ignored and silent ones).
IGNORING REALITY IS NOT AN OPTION. AND LEARN ECONOMICS YOU TWIT. EVERYBODY READ THE HISTORY OF MONEY AND BANKING IN THE US BY MURRY ROTHBARD. YEAH, HEs A JEW. JEWS ARE SMART. SO WHAT?
Brad. When I lived in the “ghetto” I saw lots of “negros” walking to and from in work uniforms, stopping by the corner store and using EBT cards to pay for sugar infused crap… during that 4 year stint, I only saw ONE use a EBT card, and then hop into the drivers-seat of a car nicer than mine…
… many of those “negros” packing EBT cards are victims of stagnant wages as well… Can you really blame somebody for bitching about their wages when the mortgage on a 1bed/1bath apartment is $1600/month…

I don’t think anyone wishes blacks harm. It’s just that they have forced themselves upon whites or been invited by gracious whites on a legally equal footing and then blackmail whites into twisting white society into a funhouse mirror. It’s time for an amicable divorce. That’s all. This Wakanda movie is in a sense evidence that blacks and whites ought to go their separate ways and form separate states.
Have Florida by all means.
Trump understood better than anyone else (but Cruz was also kind of aware) that situation had changed significantly and thus that one had to whistle about a new set of things.
HUNTER, YOU MOTHERFUCKING DIPSHIT TOOL, YOU FUCKING MORON, THE FUCKING REASON EDUCATION AND HEALTH CARE ARE EXPENSIVE IS BECAUSE THE PRICES HAVE BEEN INFLATED BY THE GOVERNMENT DUMPING TRILLIONS INTO THOSE SECTORS. STUDENT LOANS CAUSED THE 700% INCREASE IN TUITION BY THROWING GUARANTEED RISK FREE EASY MONEY AT THE COLLEGES. STUDENTS IN THE 60s PAID A YEARS TUITION FROM A SUMMER JOB. IN THE 50s BEFORE THERE WAS ANY SUCH THING AS HEALTH INSURANCE PEOPLE PAID CASH FOR A DOCTOR AND IT WAS CHEAP. NOW HALF OF DOCTOR VISITS ARE UNNECESSARY, DRIVING UP THE INSURANCE COSTS, PEOPLE ARE FAT AS FUCKING LAND WHALES, AND THE FUCKING PILL PUSHING PUSSY DEFENSIVE MEDICINE CULTURE HAS INFLATED THAT SHIT BY HUNDREDS OF FUCKING PERCENT. I AM A RACIST I WILL NEVER BE A MOTHERFUCKING FAGGOT COMMUNIST ASKING OTHERS TO FUCKING CARRY MY FAT LAZY ASS. SOCIALISM IS FOR FUCKING DEGENERATES. FUCK THE ALT RIGHT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I’m curious.
What was the average corporate tax rate in the 1950s? The top marginal income tax rate? Did we have higher tariffs than we do today? Was the US economy more or less regulated in the 1950s? The US has unaffordable colleges, a decaying infrastructure and crappy healthcare that no one else in the industrialized world wants to emulate.
I’m curious, what was the national debt in the 1950s?
PAY ATTENTION HUNTER. THE BIG SECRET ABOUT TAXES: The amount of tax revenue collected by the government has been roughly constant since forever despite the fact that the tax rates have changed wildly. TAX RATES HAVE ABSOLUTELY NOTHING WHATSOEVER TO DO WITH TAX REVENUES. By all means look up the graphs and convince yourself of this. And yes, I 100% agree our infrastructure colleges and clinics are a fucking mega embarrassment. But COMMUNISM ISNT GOING TO FUCKING HELP. And yes, I’m well aware of the shit wages problem. I HAD A SHIT JOB WITH A PHD ON MY WALL. That’s because of the massive immigration of both blue and white collar non white workers who will work for less than a white man would abide. No, the market doesnt reward hard work these days. Yes, the markets are rigged. They always have been. TOUGH SHIT. THE UNIVERSE DOESNT FUCKING OWE YOU SHIT. STEP BACK FROM THE SOCIALIST ABYSS. THIS COUNTY IS GOING TO END UP LIKE SURINAME. Have you read the story of the Boeroes???
You have a PHD like I’m Dolly Pardon. No one with a PHD in anything would write as poorly as you do.
CONGRATULATIONS, EISENKIKE -YOUR IDIOTIC All-CAPS BOOMERPOSTING MAKES EL CHAPO LOOK REASONABLE BY COMPARISON.

YOU FUCKING RACIST WHITE SUPREMACIST NAZI MOTHERFUCKING PIECES OF SHIT, TOUCH MY GODDAMNED MONKEY!! IF IT’S GOOD ENOUGH FOR RABBI SIXBAZZILLIONLAMPSHADENSTEIN AND EL CHAPO THE DADDY FREAK, IT’S FUCKING GOOD ENOUGH FOR YOU TOO! I’M USING A LOT OF GODDAMN PROFANITY! YES I AM! FUCK THIS AND FUCK THAT, GODDAMNIT! SHIT! AAAAHHHHHH!!!!!
At the core,it’s all based on jew money printing. There is no need to pick a fight over semantics.
I agree with El Chapo’s comments that non whites are feeling the strain also. That’s why I no longer think it’s wise to attack them. Race and class are not mutually exclusive. I despise the whites in the financial sector of the economy one hundred times more than a BLM activist.
Whether we like it or not the minorities will become the majority. We should combine with them on at least one issue. Get rid of the Jews. Kink them out of the country. I think this is possible.
They will never join with us, blacks and browns hate us because of our skin color and intelligence, they will never accept us. The sooner you accept that and start supporting whites without hesitation, the better.
Are you fat and lazy?
Conservative :- working to preserve the racial purity and cultural values….of Israel.
Well, I guess there won’t be anything left for churches to do in Hunter’s egalitarian eutopia. Big gov is going to take care of it all. Better hope that wall never gets built or Hunter will repurpose it as an iron curtain.
Don’t get me wrong, as a SN I support socialism as a powerful blow against the empire. Socialism will do almost as much—maybe more than other side effects of immigration to create an environment for us to gain power.
Yet more proof that conservatives never were nor ever will be friends of the White middle and working class.
2018 Occidental Dissent sure is a hell of a lot better than 2012 Occidental Dissent. I used to avoid this site like a plague for its “gas the poor people, including the white ones” attitude.
To Hunter Wallace: congratulations for evolving. I hope you soon come around to going full NAZBOL, friend.
Regardless of who the welfare state benefits short-term, it hurts us long-term. As for the Whites who’re drawing funds from the government, it keeps them in a weakened state, too dependent upon the programs. Just like it does for everyone else. The only welfare I’d personally like to see is programs that truly help White folks, encourage large White families and work. Programs like the National Socialists implemented throughout the 30s in Germany. Interest-free loans that became gifts the more White kids you had. I’d also like to see some programs that actually addressed the opioid problem, got White people completely off the drugs and working. But, of course, that’s all a pipe dream. The only thing that’ll “fix” this convoluted, Jewish-complex and anti-White system is for this system to be completely destroyed. Yes, a whole lot of our people will be destroyed, too, that’s for sure. It would be like trying to remove an alien that’s wrapped up along someone’s spine, chemically fused with them, with billions of tentacles penetrating the host’s brain and other vitals.Those worst infected would simply have to die with the parasite. No amount of surgery will help. Same with this Jewish-dominated global political system; no amount of political surgery will ultimately free us from their deadly embrace.
Jim, the length and anger in your comments shows that it’s definitely been a few decades since you’ve had some pussy… go back to prison… criminal

I believe Trump is doing this to control fraud and illegals from getting access. I do agree with Hunter, that any white person that gets gov. assistance is ok.
We’re always going to have people in our midst who go through misfortune at some stage of their lives, be it a job loss due to offshoring or a workplace injury. They deserve our help if they’ve worked and paid taxes for a large portion of their adult life, rather than a Mexican or Somalian who just rock up and think we owe them something. We have enough of our own that need help, so why import someone else’s future welfare burdens on top of that?
The white world is seen as an endless ATM tap and we’re paying for it.
My father got some of the poor people from his church to vote for Trump, on the basis of “saving America”. They’re on some kind of benefits due to health problems, dunno the details.
Trump turns around and uses that mandate to enact the Paul Ryan agenda. Sad!
What’s unfortunate is that some of my conservative relatives are happy to go along with it, can’t really understand that Trump was trying to be something other than a mainstream con.
Heh, for “trying” substitute “claiming”
The only advantage I see in this is that it might stop them from trading their EBT/SNAP for drugs.
Food boxes. Within five years, the average food box will contain wagu beef, skrimps, lobster, artisenal goat cheese and wine. Plus plenty of grape drink and cheetos. Count on it.
I would gladly live off of that!
