        65% of legal immigrants collect some form of benefits while only 35% of native born do. WHY should we be forced to support them? I thought immigrants were a " boon" to our economy? We all know that's BS.

        When I moved to the US, I signed documents agreeing that I couldn't or be on any type of gov assistance for 10 years. I don't know why this comes as a surprise, that is how it should be done

        It’s about not allowing immigrants coming to our country to live on Welfare. It means more money for actual citizens like people who live in Baltimore. You know, those people you guys CLAIM to care about.

        Do you genuinely even for a moment believe that this administration would do anything to increase benefits to anybody who isn’t wealthy, a corporation, or a farmer being bribed to look the other way while they destroy their markets?

        Not everything I wanted, sure, but still pretty good considering we’re still running off of its fumes at this point.

        The degree to which policy has become naked pandering to right wing bumper sticker rhetoric is still a bit staggering.

        Illegal immigration is expensive. Of course money is part of the equation.

        The cost of illegal immigration could multiply if all Democrats got their wish: 1) allowed to vote 2) $15 minimum wage 3) apply for welfare 4) free gov’t paid healthcare?

        “Illegal immigration” like it’s only a theory that hundreds of thousands of people are criminally crossing the border. That’s the definition of propaganda

        Which country other than the U.S. do you immigrate to and get on their social welfare? All the countries I know of in the West have a means test. In every one, you need a sponsor to pay for you until you get a job.
