I could understand why you would think this way. After all the government (and the poor) preach that we should take care of the poor and people in need but it's one big farce.

If you worked, paid taxes all your lives but become ill don't expect much help. There is a train wreck awaiting the middle class no matter what generation. Read this and you'll see what I am saying.

The Poor - Middle Class, why bother trying?

If you are low income, don't work and on the dole for most of your life, you won't have contributed much to social security and I'll doubt you have assets or savings to live on. When you get old, no worries, you'll qualify for all kinds of help, all medical bills paid for by the tax payer. Illegal immigrants, many who won't have paid into ss, have enough years to qualify, or won't make enough money belong to the first group, everything paid for by American tax payers who won't get a dime of help when they need it.

If you are middle class, paid taxes all your life, climbed the income ladder, contributed to social security. If you had a decent when you as a middle class person who becomes old with just enough to live on, your income will be above the income limit, even if by a little you won't get help. You better have a hell of a savings or your kids will be footing the bill.


The American middle class has been made into serfs that will pay for everyone else.

You mean this one?

Keywords: for their native-born children

The illegal alien parents are not receiving aid for themselves, by themselves. Their children are, and benefits are usually, if not always, prorated so that the parents cannot claim benefits for themselves too, like Section 8 where only the child's "portion" of the rent is paid for; the parents still have to pay their share
See when you have someone that doesn't care about laws or cheating you get them using public assistance: U.S. GAO - Impact of Illegal Aliens on Public Assistance Programs: Too Little Is Known and Why is it that Illegal Aliens Get Free Food Stamps, Health Insurance and Pay No Taxes? and Blog: Study: 51% of immigrants receiving public assistance

I lived in AZ for 6 years and now in KS so I have a pretty knowledge of the "situation" and the devastation that it does to our citizens.
