Broken immigration system example: Obama's aunt

[henryclay]

Maybe you've seen this before. It's a video of Obama's illegal alien aunt in Boston telling us she is perfectly happy living in free housing, getting welfare checks and drawing disability benefits;

"I am disabled. You have an obligation to take care of me and give me citizenship"

And i am quite sure you can't draw disability and "welfare" at the same time.

You do realize we're talking about an illegal (at one time) alien living off US Social Services that they are not even eligible to receive in the first place, don't you?

With 1 in 5 Americans out of work, Obama issues over a million green cards

The Department of Homeland Security has just reported that during 2009, they issued 1,130,818 new Green Cards to foreign nationals, allowing them to work legally in this country. That number represents the fourth highest number of cards issued in one year.

750,000 of the new Green Cards were given to the families of U.S. citizens and legal permanent residents.

The top four recipient nations are as follows:

-Mexico164,920
-Chinareceiving 64,238
-Philippines60,029
-India57,304

In Feb. 2009, the financial institution Merrill Lynch announced that the nations actual unemployment rate had reached 13.9 percent. A year later, that number had risen to 17.3 percent. This figure represents Americans who have been laid off from full-time positions and are now working part-time, as well as those who have simply stopped looking for work, and workers whose unemployment benefits have run out.

The official unemployment figure given monthly by the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics is now listed around 10 percent, but represents only those Americans currently receiving unemployment checks, and is not truly indicative of the dire employment situation now facing the U.S.

In 1931, the second full year of the Great Depression, the average rate of unemployment was 16.3 percent, with U.S. unemployment peaking at 25 percent in 1933. We now sit in between those two disastrous figures, with an ever-worsening economy.

With U.S. unemployment now at depression levels, we simply can no longer tolerate not only illegal immigration, but any immigration which allows foreign nationals to take much-needed jobs from American citizens.

Why are we paying the salaries of elected representatives who now seem to represent everyone, but us?

Noooooooooo! Say it ain't true. Let's review here. How many times have CONSERVATIVES brought up this happening & LIBERALS on these boards saying that it DOESN'T HAPPEN? I know I have brought it up more than twice & every time the answer is the same.....No way, you have to prove citizenship before you can get anything. Well here's a high profile case where it DID HAPPEN & if there's one high profile case (a member of the Presidents family) then you know that there are thousands of low profile cases out there (if not more).

The truth is that it's EASY to get free money because there is no check system. And I'll say here that it's only partly the governments fault. That's because the system was poorly designed by the people who came up with it (liberals) & was then passed on to someone that shouldn't have been running it in the first place (the government) because of the bureaucracy that come with anything the government runs.

So here we are with a system that: gives money away to people that aren't eligible, no checks for qualifications on who gets the money, that demoralizes a whole class of people many of which will never better themselves because of it, & yet liberals want to start EVEN MORE of these social programs.

I'll be honest, I'm beginning to think that some people are able to walk, talk, & reproduce & yet still be brain dead. Now it would be different if they (liberals) ever actually faced up to the problems for society that they cause but they don't. Either there are no problem (according to them) or they are very few (a minor percentage). Well time after time we see this stuff come up & maybe they would be isolated things except the system has no real review so they aren't looking for abuses. If we find this many instances of abuse without looking, just how many would be find if we really looked hard for them. I'm betting at least 30% of the money spent on these programs is given out in what should be....error.

Government run programs come out of Crap Central (Congress)!

"And i am quite sure you can't draw disability and "welfare" at the same time."

Actually, yes you can. There are instances where a combined SSI and SSDI entitlement are not sufficient to support an individual person. In this case, the person is eligible for section 8 housing, SNAP benefits and possible a small amount of cash benefit
