This is part of the reason I get pissed off when I hear a democrat using the "we are the richest country in the world" trope as justification for giving illegal immigrants benefits. Charity begins (and should end if taxpayers are footing the bill) at home. The frauds have to be cleaned out. The illegals have to be deported. Legals who have committed acts of insurgency need to be stripped of citizenship and deported. Doing all that will great a lot of meaningful jobs, even more meaningful if the process were organized to succeed without causing any harm the truly needy among us.
I think we need to think about changing the mindset of the people that think they’re entitled to free stuff for life. I remember when there was shame attached to getting assistance. You only did it because you had to and getting off as soon as you had the chance. Fast forward to now. There are people who think we owe them these things because they choose to not work. They have no cares about anything other than self.
