This is one of my grips, illegal immigrates can collect welfare and they aren't even citizens. How can our system pay some people when others can't even get social security. It doesn't make any difference if we have a democratic government or republican government. This country is going to go broke if we continue to support illegals. The American taxpayer is paying for much more than most countries do and if it doesn't stop, this country will perish

Just remember, only by the grace of God are you not a welfare case yourself. As little as a bad case of the flu and a high fever could damage your brain to the point that you would have trouble functioning, or you could be afflicted with Muscular Dystrophy or any number of bad things that can ruin your life. How do we seperate those that can not take care of themselves from those that we just think are not trying hard enough and do it fairly?
A good government has the responsibility to take care of all it's citizens, even the lowest on the ladder. I'm proud to live in a country that is willing to give a hand to those in need. How sad a place this would be if we were not. Look at the world today and try to think of places where the government turns a blind eye to the poor while the few privileged elite live in mansions and only the select few get to choose the leadership. Is that the kind of country you wish the United States to become?

If people are on welfare and they are getting refunds, then they aren't making enough of a wage to owe taxes and are being boosted on what's lacking by an Earned Income Credit. Also, their collective earnings are so low, they are still eligible for public assistance. Remember, no one can get a refund on nothing! Even EIC is based on "EARNED INCOME'.
It is frivolous to say that Democrats don't pay taxes. The majority of the Country is middle class and the middle class is made up of Republicans, Democrats and others. The middle class are burdened with the highest taxes of all. The US Budget was balanced and in surplus when Bush took office and in 90 days had us in debt......
Bless
good luck & bless

Sorry, but you are misinformed. Anyone who is on welfare as their sole means of support has no earned income and threfore is not eligible for the Earned Income Tax Credit.
Bush's "tax cuts" were one of the biggest lies of his administration -- even more so than the WMDs in Iraq! Because of the growing impact of the AMT, many middle-class taxpayers saw MASSIVE INCREASES in their tax bills since he has steadfastly refused to allow any significant indexing of the AMT rates.
BTW, even welfare recipients are taxpayers -- someone on public assistance may not pay any income taxes but they damn sure pay sales and other taxes.

very charitable. it's called earned income credit, for low income people only who had had earnings but have kids. only taxpayers vote? why not just landowners? count blacks as 3/5? you ought to be ashamed of yourself. tax system and government gives huge amount of welfare to large corporations. are you complaining about that too???

Yep Exactly! I think they should pass a law if you want a welfare check you have to pass a Urine test and you have to be available to work and look for work just like if you were getting unemployment.
