Embarrassing. This is utterly embarrassing. Freaking Amish people make more than us.

 

[sinister]

People will come in talking about undeclared income, but in reality A LOT of ethnic minorities have undeclared income. Coming bottom of the pile in many different countries and in various different ways suggests some kind of global cultural catastrophe for somalis. Hmong waa maxay?

We need some milk.

WTF is an American American?

 

[Mercury]

WTF is an American American?

I know man

What if its a nativeamerican

 

[Apollo]

We already had this discussion before. A big driving factor behind this is ''on paper'' ''divorces''. Husband and wife claiming to live separate lives when in reality it's not the case.

 

[waraabe]

I am not surprised. Even Afghans and Ethiopians are doing much better

 

[Apollo]

By the way, whenever government forms ask me about my ethnicity, language, or religion I always lie and put in random bullshit like Jedi religion.

It's none of the government's business to keep ethnic stats.

 

[Oscar]

What ever happened to My tribe runs America or American somalis have a high I.Q.

lakiin meeqa dad kale o somali eheyn, o ayaka o 0 income qabaan,television cusub, iyo balayo kale lugu arkaa? laga yaabaa kis yar xagaa iyo meesha.. somali le aan ku arkay. (lakiin taas nafteedi baa masiiba eh)

 

[Khathead]

What did you expect? The type of immigrants that come from India, Nigeria, China etc usually have a great education while Somalia can barely protect it's own border let alone take care of educating it's people.

 

[Canuck]

WTF is an American American?

Caadan

 

[RudeBoi]

Majority of Somali Americans are walaweyn.What else do you expect from these caydh collecting,baby making machines?

They destroyed their land and now they burden other countries.A bunch of useless folks if you ask me.

 

[OmarLittle]

Interesting things: Only 24.3% of households with children under 18 are headed by females. That is most likely means that 75.7% of households with children under 18 are headed by males. 57.7% are not married. I'm guessing most don't register with the government. 40.1% don't have a HS diploma which is understandable. 55% are in poverty and almost 60% are on food stamps.

The average Somali living in the United States thinks they're slick for cheating the government for not reporting their right income or lying about marriage. But, in the end of the day, you're average American doesn't know these things and these numbers are an embarrassment. Black-American households are headed by females at a rate of 75%, while Somalis are headed by males at a rate of 75%. The average family household size is 4.5, and less than half of them have the father "present". That means the Somali women and men are producing more kids than they could afford. Also half of them have 5 ore more children, smh.

I hope the next generation doesn't fail us. I have hope for the future.

Also noticed that Somali kids born in U.S, they're more males born than females. Somali dudes are going to have a shorage of Somali American born Xalimos. They gotta go back home and fish. Unless that 10% are bi/gay. :siilaanyolaugh:

Somalis here are good at making money and hiding it only a dumbass would report his income to a country that will take half of it f*ck image currency>>>images

[maestro]

Somalis here think they're here for 2 decades then they'll going back so they keep doing whatever they want while not thinking of the consequences.

You aren't going anywhere anytime soon so you better stop this fraud. Or else this image problem is gonna bite you in the ass one day.

I know a family who keeps saying they will relocate to Africa since 2007. They're still here and even bought a house.
