"A more benevolent welfare system", eh?

I thought that might be the case.

Somali immigrants are the biggest welfare leeches I've ever encountered. There was recently a story in the Portland 'Oregonian' about a Somali grocery store that, due to their own dishonesty and cheating, had lost its ability to take food stamps. The owner was moaning that he was going to lose his business "because 90% of my customers are on food stamps."

WHY, oh why, do we export jobs and import taxpayer-dependent poor people?

Maine can blame it on themselves. They have a great welfare state supported by deductions in the paychecks of the generous workers of Maine. Maine has high taxes to support welfare.At least there are fewer Muslims in Georgia.
