The majority came from Atlanta, as Maine shows higher rate of employment than other states.

If you'd been following the stories since this first started you'd know that the Somali elders openly stated in the newspapers that they came here specifically because Maine offers some of the best and easiest welfare conditions in the country.

Either that or you forgot to close your sarcasm tags.
