I feel like I need more rice in my diet (re: I'm poor and I need cheap food that will fill me up :p) but I always heard that bleach white rice wasn't all that healthy (sorta like white bread).

Geez, white rice is not bleached. You remove the husk you get brown rice, you further remove the bran and germ you get white rice. Brown rice has more fiber, slightly healthier. Brown rice used to be associated with poverty since it requires less processing it used to be cheaper.
