i like the idea of helping. My objection is political and structural.
I would like to see lower taxes and a better economy first.
And, I have a major problem with creating more votes for democrats.
This is what the cronies want... to drown out votes with govt takers so the working class has to stay subservient to those who have access to the Federal Reserves money creation.
Until you understand this... you don't understand was is going on in govt, who is running it and who is owning it.

More than half of the nation's immigrants receive some kind of government welfare, a figure that's far higher than the native-born population's, according to a report to be released Wednesday.
About 51% of immigrant-led households receive at least one kind of welfare benefit, including Medicaid, food stamps, school lunches and housing assistance, compared to 30% for native-led households, according to
the report from the Center for Immigration Studies, a group that advocates for lower levels of immigration.
Those numbers increase for households with children, with 76% of immigrant-led households receiving welfare, compared to 52% for the native-born.
The findings are sure to fuel debate on the presidential campaign trail as Republican candidates focus on changing the nation's immigration laws, from calls for mass deportations to ending birthright citizenship.
