And most of them are stupid enough to keep voting for Obama and Democrats.
Fox News Latino:
While Latinos are gaining in political clout, they are also falling down the economic ladder, new Census numbers show.
Latinos poverty rates climbed to 28 percent after the census
reconfigured its algorithm to take into account medical costs and
government programs. The Hispanic poverty level rose after the
government took into account safety-net programs such as food stamps and
housing, which have lower participation among immigrants and
non-English speakers.
Overall, the ranks of America's poor edged up last year to a high of 49.7 million, based on the new census measure.
The numbers released Wednesday by the Census Bureau are part of a
newly developed supplemental poverty measure. Devised a year ago, this
measure provides a fuller picture of poverty that the government
believes can be used to assess safety-net programs by factoring in
living expenses and taxpayer-provided benefits that the official formula
leaves out.
