I don’t. When was the last time you walked through Harlem and someone came up to you and said “You Jews, you can’t be so reliant on government programs you need to get jobs.” New York and New Jersey are both below the median for unemployment. We make up 10% of the state of NY at 2 million Jews strong. Of that 10% how many people would you say are in kollel all day and taking benefits from the government?
