"Nationwide, the report found that immigrant households with children use welfare programs much more often than native households with children, 57 percent compared with 39 percent. The report also found that households headed by illegalimmigrants used welfare programs more often than households headed by legal immigrants, 71 percent compared with 52 percent."

It can't be said enough. Welfare is one of the biggest problems with uncontrolled immigration and the fact that people who have no education, no job skills, no motivation to make it in their own country where they know the culture and language and the cost of living is much much lower can come here, take the lowest paying jobs (if they feel like working), have babies at taxpayer expense and then use those babies to receive food stamps, WIC, free housing and not only that but use them to demand a big amnesty.
Cut off all the welfare handouts, require illegals to pay their hospital bills, and stop rewarding this.
The real answer is that these people start improving themselves back home. Stay in school there, get some job skills, delay having children until they can afford them. Join their own growing middle class, build the infrastructure of their own region, create jobs and work for reforms and social change.

already covered...means there is another thread on the same topic currently running.
do you read this sub-forum
but if you have the need to keep saying it..knock yourself out.
When someone wants to live in a foreign country they are required to prove before they emigrate that they are financially able to sustain themselves.
Here, we just give them money.
Is this right?
Only half right. Legal immigrants are not entitled to seek government aid. Either they need to have enough money in the bank to support themselves for a year or they need a sponsor willing to guarantee support.

What the HELL??? My husband is a legal immigrant here, with myself and my family as sponsors, and when I recently inquired about our ability to receive assistance if the need should arrive I was told in no uncertain terms that we were disqualified! I guess you are only entitled if you are an immigrant from SOME countries!!!
Thanks for the heads up. This gives me something to fight back with if the need ever does arise, which I hope it doesn't.
