EXACTLY! They used to be called migrant workers. Now they migrate one way. They come here and stay here. They crank out babies like there is no tomorrow and WE PAY for it. They do in fact get on the dole in every way shape and form. I know a mexican woman who quit her 10.00/hour job so she could go home and get paid by the state 2000/month to baby sit her own grandchildren because there are so many of them under the guise of low income "day care".
These 30 million, not 11 million, are planting a devastating demographic time bomb that will go off in 1 generation and MUST be stopped and reversed! We will be a permanent socialist republic if this is not dealt with!

Over 70% of illegal immigrants in TX are on welfare. The few employers are so happy to have so much cheap, taxpayer-subsidized labor that they are gladly pay off pols like Perry who make sure to keep it that way.
