Treat the Cause, Not the Symptom: Welfare State Is Draw for Illegals
It was one thing when the US had vast tracks of lands to be settled AND we did not have “free” social services. Everyone who came to America had to make it on their own as there was no free ride.
That is the big difference. Because we are so afraid of offending one group or another, we’ve allowed our laws to be trampled and even allow “illegals” to protest demanding “rights”!
If you are illegal, you shouldn’t be here! My parents did all the paperwork and waited for to enter the US legally. So can everyone else.
We all learned to speak English, bothmy sister and I finished college, my parents never took 1 dime of aid. They worked and we worked to be tax paying, honest, hard working Americans and I even served in the Army for 5 yrs.
So, while I agree with Gus that the welfare system is part of the draw that draws the illegals to the US, we cannot absolve the illegals of responsibility for breaking our laws to take part in our benefits meant for US Citizens.
I agree fully with getting rid of the anchor baby law. This is a clear exploitation of the child to enter illegally and stay legally. That’s like having more kids to get a bigger welfare check.
