Another deflection. The person eligible for the benefit is a US citizen not an illegal immigrant. The people that say that illegal immigrants are eligible for welfare benefits are lying - that is a plain and simple fact.
She is upset that an American citizen qualifies for benefits.

so if me and my partnet ILLEGALLY gain access to your place of work..and we have a baby in that place of work...does that make the baby an employee?????

got it...thanks for you input
Take it up with the Constitution of the United States
Yes but to differentiate them from children whose parents are citizens as well I used the term anchor baby.
Their parents are not citizens.
Why? There are not different classes of US citizens. You are either a citizen or you aren't. People born in the US are full US citizens. You are just attempting to create a distinction that doesn't exist.

thats now 1.05 trillion...now its 40% of the revenue

then add the 850 billion pound gorrilla of SS

now we are up to 1.9 trillion in spending.....or 73% of the revenue
8 million people collecting unemployment checks weekly
average unemployment check...$330
that's 137,280,000,000.....137 billion dollars to unemployment...thta is SUPPOSED to be only for 13 weeks..but has been extended to 99 weeks
now you just crossed the 2 trillion dollar mark
and if you want to use the thread title...it proves the op evn more wrong
since only 42% of the revenue comes from income tax....
So why do righties ***** and moan about the Obama administration redistributing their money to the poor.
15% of <insert large sum of money here> is a lot of money. If I'm paying 30% tax on $100K that 15% adds up to $4500. That's a lot of money. I could pay my heating bill for 2 years with that, I could pay my electric bill for two years with that, I could buy a new car every 4 or 5 years.

There are only called U.S. citizens because their lawbreaking parents violated our borders and gave birth on our soil. The illegal immigrant parents benefit through their U.S. born childen via welfare and all sorts of taxpayer benefits for violating our laws. Yeah, that makes a lot of sense....not! It isn't their kids that walk into the welfare office and apply and cash the checks. It is the parents.

I think she has a problem with Americans of immigrant or Hispanic descent, probably the later.
