My mother, who paid taxes to California for 3/4ths of a century was eligible for no help from her state or county when she endured her last illness in her 99th year. Everyone one I contacted was very nice, and sympathetic but her monthly Social Security check made her ineligible; they could do nothing. Meanwhile, illegals were getting free phones, free internet, free MediCal (Medicaid) and free meals.

Thankfully, her last illness was mercifully short, but the whole thing still pisses me off.

And this.

As part of a 10-month investigation Scripps News uncovered that every year, thousands of migrant children disappear from their homes shortly after arriving in the U.S. But there is no clear local, state or federal government agency taking responsibility for searching for many of these missing ...Apr 2, 2024


This is so bogus-——the kids arent missing, they are loaned out, passed around to other migrants. to be used in lucrative scams to get tax dollars from S/S and hefty disability checks.

Biden overturned Trump’s order to get the DNA of these so-called needy families, to make sure the kids are really theirs.

A common practice by these greedy illegals is getting a crooked doctor to say a kid’s autistic b/c they get hefty SS tax paid benefits every month for the kid.

The maximum possible disability benefit for autism in 2024 is $943 per month for SSI and about $3,822 per month for SSDI. These maximums apply regardless of what condition you have or whether you apply with one condition or multiple. The actual amount received depends on specific circumstances. (Dec 7, 2023)

Disability Living Allowance (DLA) is a key benefit for children under 16 living with disability, including autism. It is assessed according to care needs, and a diagnosis is not required to make a claim. DLA helps cover the extra costs of raising a child with a disability. (Jan 30, 2024)

And it’s a sure bet they invent their “family circumstances.”

Plus there’s senior illegals collecting Social Security who never worked a day here and never put a dime into the system.

I went to get an MRI at Hospital for Special Surgery in NYC, and on a disclosure form they stated that if you have no insurance but make less than 500 percent of the Federal Poverty Level, their services are absolutely free. The FPL for a family of 2 is $20,400 per year. So anyone making less than $102,000 per year gets free care. They don’t care if you are here illegally or not, they don’t ask. Why would anyone stay in Nicaragua or Venezuela with all the free socialism we offer? Legal Americans with insurance pay for everyone else, which is why health insurance costs $15,000 per year.

Look on the bright side...

Thanks to those cell phones we’ll be able to find them to deport them.

Note to illegals: The more you take from Deep State, the easier you’ll be to find.
