Does collecting welfare count?

You’re comparing apples and oranges there, Hugin. But, I did get a chuckle out of your wit and humor. And, plz understand; neither Ted Cruz, nor I, are pro-Amnesty. But, I’m thinking the number of “illegal” Latinos on Welfare are still a helluva lot less percentage that the “citizens” in the Black Communities and the White lazy Rednecks and the White dopers who have been diagnosed as Bi-Polar because they have fried their brain on drugs. You’d be surprised how many young, strong, White studs are on “Disability”.
Ted didn’t distinguish between legal or illegal. Here in CA not only do they make it easy for illegals to get “Cal Fresh” (food stamps) and Medical, but legal Hispanics receive government aid of some sort at twice the level of the general population. I’m sure many of them work low paying jobs, which means taxpayers are subsidizing those businesses by allowing them to continue working for wages they otherwise couldn’t support their families on.
That’s not to say there aren’t plenty of hard working, very American “Hispanics” here. I’ve worked with plenty of them. But numbers don’t lie.
