I understand exactly what you’re saying. The thing is, the majority of Hmong, and Vietnamese I’ve known weren’t like that. The ones I’ve known at least were very hard-working, honest, and good people. Not that there aren’t “bad apples” in every group. And, many of those I’ve known I didn’t know well enough to know their exact financial situation. I do know a lot of people up here in Northern Wisconsin are not happy with the amount of Hmong we have here on public assistance — our older generation especially blames them for the small amount of welfare type funds available to THEM! (Crazy, eh? Some of them have literally said things like, my check would be bigger if it weren’t for all of them....) It’s nuts...
The illegal alien Mexicans I’ve run across when I was living in West Denver though — COMPLETELY and TOTALLY understand and agree!
To tell you the truth though - I’ve personally known more “white” U.S. citizens in my life over the years who were defrauding our welfare system and such than any other group (besides the Mexican Illegals I mentioned above). That could also be due to the fact that I grew up and have lived in mostly “white” suburban areas though — again, except for the 3 years living in West Denver.
Don't think you do. I deal with foreigners all the time in regards to fraud....It's disgusting that many of them come here and only cause more harm and bring more fraud into the system... It seems to be a way of life for most of them, and it's as if they are all counseled on how to screw our system.
