But isn't true that the welfare state was created because the lack of opportunity that were afforded to blacks? It isn't like white business owners were just lining up to employee blacks and pay them equal wages back in the 60s, especially in the south

No it's not true it was created by FDR during the depression as a temporary fix for people out of work. As usual with government sponsored programs it gets abused. And I'm talking of doing more to promote black business owners in there own communities. Give those communities more sense of pride in going to work instead of waiting for a check every month and resorting to gangs and crime.
