A few years ago I was shopping in a Safeway (supermarket) near some apartments taken over by section 8) (maryland law forbids apartments from turning them down) and a Hispanic woman was in line in front of me. The clerk told her that she couldn't buy the sugary cereal her daughter picked with the WIC food stamp credit card, but she could not understand English (they must speak Spanish at the welfare office) . So she sent her daughter, who looked about 6 to pick out a new box of cereal while we waited. But the daughter didn't really understand either so the clerk actually went back leaving us all waiting and showed the girl what cereals she could buy, by the 'Approved by WIC' stamp.
That store finally closed about 6 months ago, welfare people not spending enough. The county wants to approve a change in zoning to, you got it, more apartments for more section 8 welfare.
Maryland while on the East coast has been a magnet to illegals because the Democrats put a loophole in the law to allow them to get drivers licenses(until federal Real ID) , unless, get this, they fail to pay child support. Yes, they take away your drivers license for failure to support your ex-girl-friend for getting pregnant, but gave them to illegals.
Yesterday I also spent my morning in court with my son over a ticket. More than 50% were spanish, we sat for the longest time because we had to wait for the interpreter to come in. She was obviously busy working her way around the 3 courtrooms. Anyway, ALL were charged with No License, No INSURANCE, No registration. This is not the first time I witnessed this either.
