The Frustrating & Shocking Truth About Immigrants That Obama Won’t Talk About (No, It’s Not About Crime)
Immigration is one of the issues that Obama is trying to milk for support, as demonstrated by his whole #IStandWithAhmed nonsense. But there are some details about the whole immigration picture that President Obama isn’t being forthright about sharing. What are those details, you say?
That 51% of immigrants receive some form of government welfare, which is higher than the population of American citizens receiving government welfare (30%). In other words, immigrants are not contributing to the economy as a whole; they are draining the economy.
It gets worse when you factor in children: it’s 70% to 52%, immigrants to native-born Americans receiving welfare (These statistics are from the Center for Immigration Studies).
Now, tell me again, Mr. Obama, how we can afford to keep allowing people to come to America?
The author of the study, Steven Camarota, notes,
“This should not be understood as some kind of defect or moral failing on the part of immigrants[…]. Rather, what it represents is a system that allows a lot of less-educated immigrants to settle in the country, who then earn modest wages and are eligible for a very generous welfare system.”
It’s obvious to anyone with eyes to see that this cannot continue.

When I was younger and living in Chicago, I was in a local restaurant. The busboys were all Mexicans. One of them pointed to another and said, "Hey, man, he's a wetback.
Once there are here and get a Social Security Number so they can work, they now become a part of the system. Enough said.
