WTF? That's prosperity alright!
When I brought my wife and son back here in 1976, to get her Green Card, I had to swear in an affidavit that I would never allow her to become a public liability. It was a long hard 7 years of English and grammar, Constitutional knowledge and multiple interviews before she got her citizenship.
Today it’s “I’m a Muslim refugee scared of the dark or just a Mexican Dreamer” and you’re a citizen.
But they all vote Democrat so it is worth it.
I’m so ^%#*^% mad about this! My wife came from another country. I had to sign paperwork saying she would not be on any kind of public assistance for five years. Mow people come in the country illegally and their first stop is the welfare office. My wife is P.O. about this too.
Hey, why not? Let’s let the whole freakin world into America so they can live off the taxpayer’s dime. The open borders Welfare State is a national suicide pact.
THIS is EXACTLY what’s wrong with illegal immigration.....they are SUCKING US DRY!!!! And they want MORE!!!
bringing their 3rd world values to America
THE DIRTYY LITLE SECRET IS:
That many/most of the legal third world immigrants wee take in each year are no better, no more educated than the illegal aliens.
Blame this on our family re-unification immigration policies where a dim bulb third world immigrant from say Guatemala or Bangladesh can bring in lots of family once he becomes a US citizen. Bring in children, sisters, brothers, parents (to retire here on SSI) and so on. I am sure that if many were DNA tested they would be shown to be complete frauds who paid him a few thousand dollars.
Nonono - they’re out there doing jobs Americans won’t do.
I see many walking the streets during working hours, most have large families.
NO immigrants should be on welfare - we should only allow those to immigrate who are better than our average, who CONTRIBUTE to this country! Our system is completely screwed up, and there is one cause - the Democrats didn’t like the mid-century electorate, which basically didn’t like them all that much, so they decided to change voters. Since that time it has all been down hill - and if there is ever an amnesty and 30 million new Democrat voters come on to the scene, the country is simply OVER. If we lose on that issue, then no other ones matter - because we will NEVER win on ANY other issue, for the rest of our lives. Literally, our very nationhood is at stake.
Immigration is THE issue of the campaign...that is why I have gone from viewing Trump as a clown, to admiration for his guts, to full-on support for him. I love Ted Cruz, but I don’t think that he has as much of a chance to win as Trump, because he won’t appeal to as many Dems and Indies as Trump does. IMHO, we have to tone down the rhetoric (not give up on these issues, mind you, ONLY tone down on the rhetoric) on abortion, gay marriage, etc. - to focus on immigration and what the Dems have already done to this country.
Note: More than 80% of immigrants vote democrat!
Immigration must be NUMBER ONE issue for conservatives. The immigrants will keep voting for more welfare, more abortions, more gay marriages, more government spending.
Pray America is waking.
Vote Trump/Cruz 2016!
What is so hard to understand about this issue?
We are supposed to take in unknown numbers of mostly illiterate, non-english speaking desperate people, give them welfare, medical care, school their untold numbers of children, and let them vote in our elections for the Communist Democrats promising to give them even more of American's money?
The illegals here are desperate- willing to work for any wages, live in any conditions- So they ends up bringing down everyone's wages and living standards.
The greedy corporations get richer on the backs of the taxpayers and middle class- who must pay to support their (corporate) "cheap labor", while the taxpayers have to contend with having less resources for their own children.
And these same children have fewer opportunities because of all these untold numbers of people clogging up the system and taking up all the benefits meant for Americans and those here legally.
This cannot end well. (And this is without even accounting for all the crime being committed by persons who should not be here in the first place.)
What do they not "get" about illegal immigration?
There is NO country that puts up with people running across its borders unaccounted for (including Mexico). Or that gives illegal immigrants the resources meant for its own people. That is insanity.
Land of the free now land of the freeloader
Hard to believe an immigrant used to have a sponsor who would pay their way for them if they couldn’t support themselves.
My that certainly has changed.
Just another symptom of our decline and fall.
