"We get cheap government food and are often cold."

You know, my grandfather came to America as an immigrant, and he didn't get ANY government food. And he ended up in Chicago, not Phoenix, so I bet he got a lot colder.

Oh, btw, he came to this country as a LEGAL immigrant, and he was happy to be here.

My grand grandparents ended up in Milwaukee. They needed to get sponsorship from my grand grandmother’s brother before they could enter the country.

And I'll bet he didn't whine about his hardships, either. He just worked hard to make a better life.
