God, these (mod edit) make me want to hurl. The rest of us have to work our asses off just to get by and they get it handed to them. Maybe once the 99r's get cut off we might see some upheaval. Maybe once they see thier parent's SS cut off we might see some action.
For now, too many still "comfortable" and unaffected....
Those who asked "not what their country could do for them, but what they could do for their country" are now seeing what their country did to them.
Nothing new here
Most of us have known for years the illegals use their anchors for all the bennies
All politicians should be held accountable for the cost of their attempts to undermine, and corrupt this Great Country or Ours! President Obama has increased the attempt to cross our border with his pandering to illegals to the point that our Border patrol agents lives are in jeopordy like never before! His opinions and comments carry alot of consequence to the lives of many! The cost to social services has increased to the point that states can no longer predict growth in required budgets. This continued posturing for votes should be addressed in our houses of Congress! I know that most of us that peruse this site are aware of all of this, and that we do all that we can. Try as I might, I can`t fathom any better way to bring this cost to us better than carrying our property tax and state tax statement with me to hand to those who represent us! Ask that they answer for the cost of the choices that they make!

How are illegal immigrants eligible to receive welfare benefits and foods from the WIC program when our Vets are sleeping out in the cold weather and homeless and thousands of jobless citizens are suffering from not being able to afford medications and purchase enough food to stay healthy? I have heard many unemployed citizens say they have applied for welfare benefits and cannot receive food stamps or Medicate because they do not have a part time job, working 30 hours weekly or young children in their homes.
And who put a law into effect that prevents Social workers from requesting information about persons applying for benefits residential status? Social Service employees are blocked from gathering information pertains to immigrant’s legal status, why? There are not any laws legislated that have made illegal aliens legal immigrants in this Country, unless I have missed something?

Americans are eligible because Americans pay the taxes.
Illegals in most case do not pay the same amount of taxes that they get from the programs like WIC, Welfare and Food stamps.
If they did, how come CALIFORNIA is so broke.
The monies and programs are suppose to be for americans ONLY
Patrioticpeach gives me a reason to think he or she has a problem with stricter laws against illegal aliens?Quote:

Substitute "anchor babies" for "U.S.-born children," and you see why the 'Bamacrats refusal to deport families will result in our being colonized by people whom we do not even need.Quote:

The authors of the 14th Amendment were clear about its not pertaining to people who had any other allegiance. I don't know how we got away from that, but the U.S. and Canada are the only two countries which still permit the birthright citizenship lunacy.

A new Center for Immigration Studies report finds that 57 percent of households headed by an immigrant -- legal or illegal -- that include children younger than 18 use at least one welfare program. But just 39 percent of such native households do so.
The report, based on U.S. Census Bureau data, notes that many welfare dollars aid immigrants' children who are citizens by virtue of U.S. birth. But 56 percent of immigrant households whose children were born abroad use welfare.
Pennsylvania's immigrant-household welfare use rate -- 59 percent -- is the third-highest among the states.
CIS says most immigrants come here to work but use welfare.
"This means giving businesses access to large numbers of less-educated workers can come at a significant cost to taxpayers," the report says.
It suggests basing legal immigration on education levels to lessen taxpayers' burden. That should be a no-brainer.
Amnesty for illegal aliens would be contrary to the rule of law, of course, and would only exacerbate the problem. But America also should admit fewer legal immigrants and be more selective about who gets in so taxpayers don't end up supporting their children.
