re: Immigration in the time of the Founding Fathers

Why are you so worried about the illegals going on welfare? They came here because they had enough initiative to overcome all of the risks that you don't associate with welfare recipients. They are hard working people for the most part who have displaced American workers in jobs that are at the bottom of the barrel. I'd be more concerned about the lazy American than the venturous, risk-taking, illegal immigrant.

If I'm being perfectly honest, neither deserve welfare.

Then again, I don't believe the majority of people on welfare don't deserve it.

The biggest problem I have is they didn't come here legally.

I have two very good friends from England and Columbia who are PISSED that they had to pay the money they did to come here and work.

Obama basically pissed on every immigrant who came here legally and paid the price to do so.
