Since ever, Immigrants are required “Not to be public charge!”.
That’s the law, since anybody can remember.
If the are staying here, they need at minimum get themself some private sponsor!
Pages 6-10 specifically. Here are excerpts:
The welfare state safety net, frayed and weak in the United States, stronger but more costly in Europe and Japan, has been strained and torn throughout the industrialized democracies by pressures of migration and economic change that do not respect borders. The safety net will have to be redesigned, fundamental ideas of public social responsibility reconceived, and a new social contract written in a form consistent with the imperatives of a competitive global economy. How do we begin to think about that task in America?
As John Maynard Keynes taught us, a full-employment economy is the only economy which both seems fair and offers hope to everyone. And it is important to keep in mind the stakes attached to this issue; here we are talking about far more than just "work." As the sociologist William Julius Wilson reminds us, employment provides "the framework for daily behavior and patterns of interaction."
And so we have today a "system" of employment that is closed to some, does not provide significant advancement opportunity to the working poor, does not stimulate broad-based economic growth, and is perceived by many as unfair. This adds up to a clear warning that our situation requires careful analysis and an aggressive search for a better way.
The Foundation's Response
These implications and the broad outlines of the new economic context force us to think afresh about the issues of equity, basic rights, and the construction of social capital.
We are at a point where we can discern generally the new challenges to these common values.
— The transition to an information-age economy exacerbates the isolation within the United States and elsewhere of those who live in persistent poverty, are uneducated, or suffer discrimination.
— The transition to a global economic system reduces the effectiveness of compensatory systems and safety nets embedded solely in the nation-state, and spurs the search for approaches that can operate effectively within the emerging global context.
— The migrations, conflicts and cultural collisions that are part of a world of transnational flows require new frameworks for understanding differences among peoples, religions, and cultures and new avenues for cooperation across those differences.
Against this background, the Foundation has broadened the focus of its Basic Rights program in the U.S. to reflect the increasing diversity of America, and asks its grantees to consider what aspects of their concerns may emerge as universal rights which transcend the immediate limits of a national boundary or a specific judicial system
Most globalist socialist BS is just that. But when the President of the Rockefeller foundation slips in a reference to a capitalized Basic Rights program 33 years ago in a sentence structured as it is and considering the changes that took place since then I think it's safe to say we best pay closer attention to bureaucrats so remarkably transparent they don't care don’t care about legal or not when not being [a] citizen [is the key].
I just can't forget how the RF slipped one over on the American taxpayer so long ago.
