For many cultures Fraud is an alien concept.

I’m not sure that most Americans understand that in large swathes of humanity, there is no actual concept of “fraud,” particularly fraud against the government. Instead, there is a belief in the virtue of getting away with what you can to help yourself and your tribe.
Let me repeat: in these cultures, FRAUD IS NOT EVEN A CONCEPT. There is only what helps your tribe.
Such thought processes are so alien to Americans and much of the West. We are raised on the presumption that our institutions are valid, that the rule of law always prevails, and that integrity is universal. We need these presumptions to have working governments and economies, and without those presumptions—without the mental barrier that causes us not to accept outright fraud—our nation would quickly descend into the economic and social hellscape of countries like…. ummm… you know…. SOMALIA!

Not the only “tribe” that struggles with this

Which is why we shouldn't be letting people from places like that into this country to begin with.

Exactly. Not every group (or religion) is compatible with western culture — there are different places all over the world for these people. And that’s fine.
But refusing to assimilate to U.S. law is a deal breaker.

And leftists over here not only refuse to punish it, they actually aid, abet, and encourage it.

If true, then these people were shown how to do this from someone. These aren’t silly schemes to get food on your table daily. I think it’s a simple as the Dems found a group they could allow to come in droves, taught them how to set up these fraud companies, took a cut, and locked in their votes for the next cycle. Replacement theory in full color.

I knew this argument would be put forth as well... "They don't know any better. Where they're from, they have no concept of illegality."
All the more reason not to bring them here in the first fricking place.

I thought this thread was going to explain Trump but somehow the things he does are examples of why we shouldn't let in immigrants, lol.

Stealing, it's what Somalis do best.

Too damned bad. Fraud is a thing in the U.S. Come here? Respect our laws.

Liberals are insane, but even “good people” like Roger’s, and 3rd downs are okay with the lack of assimilation because Israel or something something. Truly dumbfounding.
