As inflation in America soars, our federal and state governments are forcing America’s squeezed taxpayers to fund people who refuse to work and illegal aliens. For months, now, we’ve been aware that people are still sucking up stimulus money but refusing to work despite the seemingly endless supply of available jobs. Now, in New York State, they’ll be joined by illegal aliens who can apply to receive money from a $2.1 billion fund specifically set up to give taxpayer money to illegal aliens and “nontraditional workers.” In this way, Democrat states contribute to America’s dissolution as a sovereign nation.
Let’s start with the stimulus to put New York’s policy into its proper perspective. When it comes to the stimulus, we all know that people are being paid not to work. I spoke with a relative today who told me that a friend of hers is living very frugally and saving money.
“Good for him,” I answered. “What job does he have?”
“Oh,” she said, “he doesn’t have a job. He hasn’t worked since last March. He’s getting stimulus checks. So is his girlfriend. And they’re not paying rent, so they can put money in their savings every month.”
“Why isn’t he working?”
“He doesn’t want to.”
My relative had taken this friend’s status for granted but, as she described it to me, she realized it was wrong. However, neither she nor I blamed the friend for doing what he was doing. The jobs he qualifies for are relatively menial. He doesn’t have career trajectory.
For someone like him, if the choice is between a not-very-nice job and a government paycheck, he’ll take the paycheck every time. And he’s smart to save the extra money given that, sooner or later, whether because taxpayers rebel or because the U.S. bankrupts itself

New York’s Excluded Workers Fund, which is intended to provide much-needed relief to workers cut off from government unemployment benefits and stimulus checks during the pandemic, is now open.
Any workers — including undocumented immigrants — who weren’t eligible for unemployment benefits, can apply. The funds do not need to be paid back.
and 90% gets sent to their home countries ?
With a healthy fee from Western Union.
More like, NY politicians stole billions of US taxpayers hard earned money to buy illegal voters.
Dont blame the dead beat renters for the gov’t programs that encourage them to be dead beats. Dont blame the drug junkies for getting wasted and/or dieing from fentanyl. Dont blame the illegal aliens streaming over our open border bringing in more crime, more drugs, more covid, more dead beats. Dont blame BLM, or Antifa for race riots encouraged by democrats. None of them are the problem. Guess where the problem is?
I have been driving by the Coca Cola plant in Downey for 40 plus years, I went to a friends a couple weeks ago who lives down the street for 50 years now, and for the first time in my life Coca Cola was having a Job Fair!! There were a lot of people there too. Help Wanted signs Everywhere in places I have never seen them before.
We are no longer the “land of the free and home of the brave”, nor the land of the industrious. We are now the land of the gimme-dats. The lack of shame and self-sufficiency is the end of us. I never thought I’d see such a pathetic American populace in my life time. Glad I’m heading towards the finish line.
Will Andrew Cuomo qualify as an unemployed alien after he is impeached?
“ Any workers — including undocumented immigrants — who weren’t eligible for unemployment benefits, can apply”
I’m a gigolo, and I can’t work because of the WuFlu mandates on social distancing and masks. I get a government check now, right? And my sister’s a hooker, and she can’t work either. She gets a check, too, right?
No, they are part of the problem as well
They are more than happy to take “charity” and feel no shame taking public money and being on the dole
No self responsibility, or at least not enough to stop them taking it.
They have no problems being here illegally
And then sending a bunch of the money out of the country
GM recently had a job fair for Flint Truck Assembly... looking for nearly 700 workers. They were having difficulty getting people who could pass a drug test.
just supporting their army
They know it too. From lib professors to government hacks to college students. They know they’re on the take.
