I'm also curious if somebody could break down the social programs that they think are the most drained by a state and federal level. I've seen WIC mentioned repeatedly, but what else?
Of course the government programs make it possible for millions with little or no education to come here and work for wages that no one can live on. That's what it's all about - some benefit very nicely by having unlimited cheap labor, the cheap labor could never make it here if the low wages were all they had for support.
Essentially no illegals come over and buy health care insurance or could afford a hospital stay if they had to pay.
If you think illegals are not a drain on the social programs then why don't we all work together and deny illegals all Medicaid, and stop government payments for their hospitalizations including maternity room visits. Cut all food stamps, WIC and housing assistance from immigrant-headed households.

...why would someone who doesn't think they are a drain support this, again?

Because if you really believe no illegals are living off welfare handouts, then you wouldn't mind having them cut off from all welfare handouts.
If illegals really contribute instead of take, then they would happily pay their hospital and maternity care themselves, they would feed their children themselves instead of using food stamps and WIC.
If you think they aren't a drain, then you would agree to deny them government handouts.
In this day and age any money whether federal, state or city spent on illegal aliens is a drain
The only money spent on illegal aliens should be to ship them back to where they came from........
