Oh! we must help these poor hungry refugees from terrorist countries.
They need American taxpayer funds to pay for their food, shelter, welfare, education, and medical care!!!
Well what about Americans, especially American families who are homeless and living in the streets or woods?
Liberals are so hypocritical, they view life through tunnel vision.
How about extending help to the American homeless before taking in the foreign poor?
Liberals are the ones who believe in funding homeless services and behavioral health programs to address the cause of homelessness.
A homeless person in America lives a higher quality of life than the majority of people on this planet. Perhaps you should consider travel outside of USA to a third world country before you claim liberals have tunnel vision?
Find me a liberal who says homeless people don't deserve the same welfare benefits as a refugee.
Just do a word count of "refugee", "Syrian refugee", "Muslim" etc. and compare it to the "homeless." It's 100 to 1. They are the forgotten men and women. The reason is simple. Libs are cultivating the next demographic to vote for them 90%. Homeless don't vote, and there aren't that many of them.

But don't fight for them to. A lot of people that are unfamiliar with the homeless do not know that you cannot receive food stamps and live at a shelter which serves food. Also most missions force you to attend church services every single night at a set time or you sleep on the streets. So in many cases the homeless are barred freedom of religion, and the right to persue an education or employment. This is why so many homeless sleep on the streets. Also if you are homeless and your employer find out, guaranteed fire. 70% of homless in America matured out the foster system at 18 and are orphans or do not have a single living family member. Of course "progressives" don't care about them. They don't even adopt American children, they adopt foreign children as a fashion statement.
Where are "progressives" on these issues? *crickets*

Wrong, there are millions of them. More than the population of Los Angeles city limits and that is just the chronic long term homeless. It seems like there are not many of them because homeless lives don't matter.
However many homeless people there are in America, there are going to be one hell of a lot more by the time President Grump is done destroying our economy.
