K-12 education, WIC, Medicaid for illegal immigrants brought as children adds up to large price tag!
On his Fox News show last week, Tucker Carlson took on the illegal immigrants who shouted down House Democratic leader Nancy Pelosi at her press conference, saying most are “benefiting in a lot of ways from U.S. society, which is the richest in the world.”
“I never hear a single person say thank you. Why not?” he asked his guest, an illegal immigrant activist.
On a Facebook page called DACA Dreamers Only, several young adults who are in DACA insist they’ve worked for everything they’ve gotten, and haven’t received any government handouts.
“All day long I hear ppl say 'illegals get free health insurance, Medicaid, food stamps, welfare.' Anyone's state gives out free welfare services? I know mine don't," one person wrote.
“It is common knowledge that we can’t take advantage of many of the programs such as welfare and Medicare, yet many believe that we do. We are not taking advantage of anyone and all we want is a chance,” another one wrote.
But illegal immigrants do get several kinds of welfare, much of it through their U.S.-born children, and a study by the Center for Immigration Studies showed that 62 percent of households headed by an illegal immigrant received some type of welfare. In addition, U.S. taxpayers have spent billions of dollars a year for K-12 education for illegal immigrants, about 690,000 of whom have qualified for DACA — Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals

That’s a lot of money.
No amount is too great for the favored demographic.
And we’re supposed to say you’re welcome?
That should be a per year figure...
How do they thank us? They seek to denigrate us if we won’t overlook them being here as an illegal alien.
Gee, you’re not welcome ingrates!
U.S. Taxpayers Have Spent More Than $80 Billion on ‘Dreamers’ AND WHAT HAVE GOTTEN IN RETURN?
That’s a lot of my money spent to buy votes for libs.
...... Yup .... And that's just the Down Payment!
$80billion and they still can’t speak proper English
80 billion on non citizens, 80 billion on non citizens, unbelievable
Recently that DACA number has grown to 2.5 million so who really know what the true cost is.
The only thing we know for sure is Congress will do an amnesty and they will cost more in the future.
The Dreamers gave us Generation Gypped.
“Generation Gypped” are Americans who were shoved aside by Dreamers who stole their school rooms, their appointment slots at the Doctor’s office. their spots on the baseball field and their college scholarships.
Dreamers need to repay what they stole, before they are given any other advantages.
Just remember: every “Dreamer” taking up space on a college campus is occupying a slot (and often scholarship money) that could have gone to a more deserving US citizen. Thanks to affirmative action and other “diversity” policies, an illegal Dreamer has a better chance of getting into a college of his choice than your kids do.
