14  State Expenditures  Percentage of population that is African- American  Homeless per 1000  Number of citizens participating in the food stamps program  Crimes per 100,000 citizens

15  State expenditures and food stamp participation  In order to study the variables related to state spending against unemployment  Determined that food stamp participation is the most significant variable while state expenditures is not

16  Normal residuals  No heteroskedasticity

17  Crime rate and income per capita  In order to study the effects of poverty and unemployment  Highly significant regression did exist  Crime rate is highly significant while income is not  Introduction of dummy variable for DC  DC’s data was much higher than the 50 states  R-squared value increased because the absence of DC’s data decreased the sum of residuals

18  Introduction of dummy variable for DC  DC’s data was much higher than the 50 states  R-squared value increased because the absence of DC’s data decreased the sum of residuals

19  Normal residuals  No heteroskedasticity

20  Crime rate, food stamps, and homeless per 1000  In order to test the three most highly significant variables against unemployment  Determined that a significant relationship exists with participation in the food stamps program being the most significant variable

21  Normal Residuals  No heteroskedasticity

22  Introduction of dummy variable for DC  Increased R 2 by decreasing sum of residuals

23  Percent of population with no health insurance does not correlate with unemployment rate  Percent of adults with bachelors does not correlate with unemployment rate

24  Unemployment positively correlated with:  Participation in the food stamps program  Homeless rate per 1000 people  Crime rate per 100,000 people  Should be the goal of the government to decrease unemployment by a reallocation of funds  Would lead to decrease in crime, homeless rate, and poverty
