Americans give them the idea.We practically push the application forms down their throat.We say "Go ahead,apply for your legally born children".WIC offices,doctors,schools,etc. tell illegal immigrants about our social servics program.They encourage them to apply.
So,my question is "Why blame the illegal immigrant for getting benefits that our country has invited them to get?Why not blame our government?"
I asked this same question,formed a bit differently,yesterday.But no one really answered it correctly.So,I'll ask again in hopes that someone gets my point.I just would like to know why there is so much animosity with illegals getting welfare benefits when we americans give them this opportunity several times over.I blame the government,not them.What about ya'll?

SealRborders : if the benefits are only for us american born people,then WHY does our government give illegal immigrants benefits?And WHY do most schools,doctors offices,etc. encourage them to apply?You make no sense.

Ok. Who is pushing the application down their throats? It's the people working in the systems. It's simple job security for them. The more people on the public dole, the more people that are needed to service them.
Yes, it's our government's fault for allowing this travesty to happen, but people who abuse the system are just as accountable as the system that allows itself to be abused.

According to the Center of Immigration Studies, their research uncovered some alarming facts: This study is one of the first to estimate the total impact of illegal immigration on the federal budget. Most previous studies have focused on the state and local level and have examined only costs or tax payments, but not both. Based on the Census Bureau data, when all taxes paid (direct and indirect) and all costs are considered, illegal households created a net fiscal deficit at the federal level of more than $10 billion in 2002. We also estimate that if there was an amnesty for illegal aliens, the net fiscal deficit would grow to nearly $29 billion.
Nobody "Invited them"...
Laws don't discriminate.....they TAKE what they can get !!!

Because I didn't say let's give the illegal immigrants welfare. If the paid taxes I could deal with it. The government decided that b.s. Not me! I don't blame the illegals, but they should be punished because they are here illegally not because of welfare.
Our government is screwy and corrupt. We need a big overhaul NOW!

I wouldn't say anyone is pushing the applications down their throats. If that is the case, its because of the illegal immigrants' children, who are innocent in the matter. The government is responsible as well, but the illegals aren't innocent. If the government encourages you to steal, that doesn't mean you should do it.

OK.....so if ILLEGALS stop by YOUR house, and the door is unlocked,does that give them the RIGHT to go in and steal your things???? HELL,NO!!!!!! (well, maybe YOUR house,since you like them so much)
These welfare benefits are ONLY for LEGAL American citizens!!!!!!!! You know.....the ones whose parents,grandparents,etc,etc, actually PAID into the system!!!!!!!
What i'm SAYING is,that even though these benefits are here, illegals are NOT entitled to them!!!!! These benefits are for U.S. citizens!!!
But because someone might whine about "racial profiling" or some other BS, people are hesitant to ASK if those applying for benefits, are here legally or not!!

Well Tinker, you can blame Democrats for authorizing welfare benefits for non americans. They want to help everyone at your expense. Dont blame the Government at whole, blame Democrats, if they give these people money and citizenship. Who the hell do you think these people who were given free whatever will vote for..... ?

Why blame any one? I mean, if nobody complains when they pay sales taxes, when they don't receive any benefits from the Social Security, when they pay state and federal taxes, then why complain when their kids get health insurance or other help as any other person born in the United States can do. Just my point of view.
Have a great day.
