I mean this whole thing is crazy. It goes beyond just having an open border imo. What dems are doing is almost treasonous, having Americans be taxed so illegals and refugees can benefit. It's like dems are trying to rig the system to benefit illegals and refugees the most at the expense of Americans. At least your friend is starting to wake up. Dems are for illegals at the expense of working and poor Americans. My mom and I talk about politics and she is the type of person who votes strictly based on who's good for her from a financial perspective. She voted trump. We were talking something about Florida and she said I think everybody should vote like Cubans , vote for whoever is good for you financially Cubans vote for republicans because they vote for whoever is good for their businessess and vote for any politician who doesn't get in the way of themselves making money. For me personally I think you have to save yourself and vote for whoever will benefit you the most whether financially or is some other way etc. because no one else will put you first.

I agree with you. Keep in mind our federal government, by the terms of our Constitution, is commanded to “guarantee to every State in this Union a Republican Form of Government, and shall protect each of them against Invasion” ___ Article 4, Section 4. Constitution of the United States

Some protection by opening the border door as wide as possible. The S.C. majority ought to hang their heads in shame!

Me too. I am shocked they go as far as letting illegals get vouchers and all kinds of benefits meant to help our own poor. It really shows me who democrats prioritize and it isn't the American poor or American citizens. I am shocked actually. People vote for dems thinking they'll do their best to help American citizens, but they end up pouring all their effort to help and prioritize illegals, doing their most for illegals and refugees etc.

What got my attention a few years back was this:

American citizens are being taxed to pay for the births of anchor babies to illegal entrants who then qualify for more taxpayer financed benefits.

You probably are correct on that!

Just for the record, Emma Lazarus, who wrote the words which appears on the Statue of Liberty’s pedestal was a well-known socialist, and the “poem” which she wrote, was suggested to be used to raise funds to build the statue’s pedestal.

Additionally, immigrants coming to America who passed the statute on their way to Elis Island were not granted entry into the United States for a number of reasons. One reason to be rejected was the likelihood of becoming a ward of the state and a public burden, and on this ground some were refused entry!

The law also required a medical inspection of all immigrants, and if an inspection officer detected an applicant with a disease, especially contagious diseases (TB, venereal disease, etc.) and even mental illness, they were rejected.

So, now that we are more acquainted with historical facts, is it not in the best interests of the United States and her citizens to stop the millions of foreign nationals looking to flood across our border?

It's time for border states to enforce the border and do the job that the Federal government refuses to do.

I disagree. I think we should vote based on what is good for our country and our citizens as a whole not just your personal benefit.

Every state has its own militia, and likewise has a preexisting right to defend itself against invasions, especially those which are border states.

You actually think that most of these illegals are coming here to pick crops? I have news for you there are unlimited visas for legal farm workers and only a small percentage of illegals are picking crops anyway. They are coming here to take once good paying jobs from Americans such as in the construction industry.

Out of those killed here recently by being abandoned in a hot tractor trailer two brothers were coming here for construction jobs that I guess were waiting for them. Either way, this SC decision is going to make the problem worse at our border.
