Time and again we learn that liberals lie to us.
Under the Obama administration, they wanted states to take in thousands of refugees from foreign countries.
They pretended this was good for our country. We are a nation of immigrants, right? So Americans could not be upset about thousands, tens of thousands, of strangers being dumped into our communities.
They did not want to tell us these were people from Muslim-majority countries, who do not value or embrace American customs. They do not believe in free speech, freedom of religion, or even equal rights for women.
Nor did the liberals tell us these thousands of refugees would be a burden to the taxpayer–the real reason democrats want them. All these new faces would drain our government benefits. That would require the federal government to spend more, pass more regulation, and gobble up more power.
But one state found a special way to send refugees packing. And it only highlighted how little these foreigners respect our country and way of life.
From Mad World News:
According to the Phoenix New Times, at least half of the 7,351 Somali refugees resettled in Arizona have moved out of the state because there are not enough welfare and government benefits for their liking. Additionally, they are fleeing because the state requires them to learn English and find jobs in order to attain food stamps.
Like all refugees, each migrant resettled in Arizona receive a lump payment of $925 from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. Of course, the state receiving said migrants is expected to foot the rest of their bills after the stipend is used up. However, Arizona doesn’t offer additional funding unless these welfarers take the necessary steps to earn them, which tellingly proves to be too much for many.

Walp, mebbe that'll work as well. Sooner or later, the "smart pills" Mr Rabbit leaves in the yard start working. And even progressives may catch on eventually when their system gets overwhelmed by an influx of "unexpected guests".
One would hope, anyways. /optimism d:^)
where in the Constitution does it say I have to pay for refugee stipends, for food stamps or assistance of any kind? no one has ever “assisted” me. Screw then. Bye bye
I hope Alabama cuts off their welfare. We don’t want the muzzies here. Send them to blue states.
In Maine you have to work (if physically able) or be in a job training program to get welfare. The “Muzzies” in Lewiston are bitching, pissing and moaning! :)
How much welfare or food stamps would you get in any muslim country or mexice????????
A Somali is the most useless person on planet earth.
Useless, useless, useless!
We have that problem in Pennsylvania as our Mexican population is moving to Connecticut.
How long before the Ninth Circuit court declares the work requirement unconstitutional and requires the people of Arizona to support these “refugees” for the rest of their lives?
no doubt.
Sounds like all states should learn from Arizona.
All the more reason to move....
To Arizona!
when oh when are blog pimps going to learn to write?
I should not have to read several lines of pablum like "liberals lie to us" to get to the f'in point. Good grief. Say what you have to say, and say it in the beginning, not several paragraphs in.
There is a law that immigrants are prohibited from receiving government assistance and have to have a sponsor who accepts financial responsibility for them.
http://watchdog.org/67592/u-s-sponsors-immigrants-raid-on-welfare/
Sponsors have to sign an “Affidavit of Support” for each legal immigrant.
These notarized documents; Form I-864, are legally binding contracts obligating the sponsors to provide financially for the immigrants they sponsor.
But the federal government totally ignores the law and lets sponsors off the hook by signing immigrants up for the full boat of government welfare as soon as they arrive.
In 1965 democrats and RINOs overwhelmingly passed the “Immigration and Nationality Act of 1965” (Hart–Celler Act) for the purpose of bringing in fewer whites (Europeans) and more blacks and browns (non-European).
Previously the sponsors were actually held responsible for their charges. But since 1965 in the government’s eagerness to bring in non-whites they have become more and more lax about enforcement.
Today they totally ignore the law.
HISTORY of Hart–Celler Act
Introduced in the House of Representatives by Rep. Emanuel Celler (D-NY)
Passed the House on August 25, 1965 (318–95)
Passed the Senate on September 22, 1965 (76–18) with amendment
House agreed to Senate amendment on September 30, 1965 (320–70)
Signed into law by President Lyndon B. Johnson on October 3, 1965

That is exactly what’s going on! They’re all connected with their Obamaphones and “free” internet connections. They contact other members of the expanding community of “refugees” who inform them of all of their wonderful benefits and they’re on to the next gravy train! The fact that half of them won’t work or learn English signals to me they have no reason to be here in the first place.
“All the more reason to move....
To Arizona!”
I used to work and live in Arizona. I loved the climate, but that was about all. Recent changes to gun laws were a positive. But not enough to bring me back.
Vile bunch!
Not in Hazleton.
Immigration without assimilation is an invasion. We are purposefully being invaded.
Interesting.
