They know they’ll have a hard time finding jobs, but they also know they can use fraud to obtain freebies. The women are probably already pregnant, and carrying a future U.S. meal ticket.

Interesting! They are some how able to do that?

It sounds like the U.S. has some house cleaning to do

They are waiting for the amnesty the ethnic advocacy groups keep telling them is coming.

Because no matter how bad our economy gets and jobless rates climb, there's always welfare.

Seems like a silly question to me.

It's like asking: Why do people with no money, no life and no job prospect in Ohio, move to California?

These people probably have nothing to lose.

And churches that will help them, food pantries, homeless shelters, other members of their ethnicity who will let them sleep on their couch, etc.

They get more here (or at least have the potential to) than they get in Mexico. Simple as that.
