"It makes no sense to reward millions of illegal immigrants for criminal behavior while our Social Security system is already in crisis," said Sen. Jim DeMint, South Carolina Republican. "Why in the world would we endorse this criminal activity with federal benefits? The Senate missed a big opportunity to improve this bill, and I doubt American seniors will be pleased with the result."
"Instead of protecting the retirement security of Americans who are earning an honest living and abiding by the laws of our country, Debbie Stabenow sided with people who are here illegally and abuse our Social Security system,"
"What that means is that up to 200,000 unskilled workers a year would become eligible for a green card, regardless of economic conditions, regardless of whether that worker has been actually employed for four years, and most importantly, regardless of whether there are unemployed U.S. workers available to fill those jobs," said Sen. John Cornyn, Texas Republican.
Well isn't that special. Why don't we also grant them back pay for job they never had and give them refunds for tax returns they never filed.
We've got to get our government back from these globalists. Vote, call, write, do something! If we think we are having struggles now, what will our children have to go through when millions of illegals and the relatives they have brought in will become voting citizens and suck up even more benefits?
Subject: Timely Poem
I come for visit, get treated regal,
So I say, who care I illegal.
Cross the border, poor and broke,
Take the bus, see assistance bloke.
Nice man treat me good in there,
Say I need welfare.
Welfare checks they make you wealthy,
Medicare, it keep you healthy.
By and by, I got plenty money.
Thanks American working dummy!
Write to friends in motherland,
Tell them to come as fast as can.
They come in rags and chebby trucks,
I buy house with welfare bucks.
They all come, we live together,
Some say they no like the weather.
Fourteen families all move in,
Neighbor's patience growing thin.
Finally white guy moves away,
I buy his house and then I say,
Find more aliens, house I rent,
In the garden I put a tent.
Send for family, they just trash,
But they all draw more welfare cash.
Everything is mucho good,
Soon we own the neighborhood.
We have hobby. It's called breeding,
Welfare pay for baby feeding.
Kids need dentist? Wife need pills?
We get free. We got no bills.
American crazy, he pay all year,
To keep his welfare running here.
We think America damn good place,
Too damn good for American race..
If they no like us, they can go......
Got lots of room in Mexico!!
SS benefits for these illegal aliens is ill-gotten gain from a fraudulent felony. Therfore, they are not legally entitled to these funds.
This is clearly an amnesty, regardless of the silly claims to the contrary.
There's a hell of a bunch of Senators on Ambian.
This will breed further cynicism and contempt for the tax laws. Honest Americans who have faithfully and fully paid their taxes only to see illegal aliens rewarded with special breaks for flouting the law are going to ask themselves, "Why?"
I don't think anyone is arguing against lawfully present workers. If I rob a bank and invest the money in T-Bills, should I be able to collect the proceeds?
Time for the torches and pitch forks.
Has the nation lost it's collective mind altogether? Am I alone in wondering if all of this is not going to begin a civil war? No, I'm not suggesting one.
There truly is no hope for this country anymore.
Re my tagline, looks like the enemy is also our government.
What this means is that "all men are equal in the eyes of the law".....has been transformed into "some men are more equal than others". Suddenly its the 18th century again...where one's prospects, penalties, permisssions and prohibitions are defined by whether or not he is a member of the currently politically correct crowd clustering at the feet of the King..........
