Over 100 Million Now Receiving Federal Welfare2:40 PM, Aug 8, 2012, By DANIEL HALPER A new chart set to be released later today by the Republican side of the Senate Budget Committee details a startling statistic: "Over 100 Million People in U.S. Now Receiving Some Form Of Federal Welfare." Food stamps and Medicaid make up a large--and growing--chunk of the more than 100 million recipients. "Among the major means tested welfare programs, since 2000 Medicaid has increased from 34 million people to 54 million in 2011 and the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP, or food stamps) from 17 million to 45 million in 2011," says the Senate Budget Committee. "Spending on food stamps alone is projected to reach $800 billion over the next decade." 43% U.S. immigrants on welfareBy Stephen Dinan, The Washington Times, Wednesday, August 8, 2012 www.washingtontimes.com/news/2012/aug/8/slow-path-to-progress-for-us-immigrants/IRS told employees to ignore potential fraud in program used by immigrantsBy Stephen Dinan, The Washington Times, Wednesday, August 8, 2012 IRS pays out $6.8 billion in refunds to taxpayers who file using Individual Taxpayer Identification Numbers (ITINs). They generally are immigrants, here both legally and illegally. The potential amount of fraud was not stated, but the investigators detailed seven schemes that paid out $9 million in tax refunds in 2011. For example, investigators said the IRS issued 23,994 refunds to one address in Atlanta, totaling $46 million in refunds. www.washingtontimes.com/news/2012/aug/8/irs-paid-out-billions-bogus-refunds-under-program-/

If you are not here legally go home. I don't care if your kid was born here. It will be his choice when 18 to become a US citizen, or not, but you are not legal and need to go home now. www.youtube.com/watch?v=TdwuiyO7hOUIf you can work then you need to work. If the illegals are gone then there will be more jobs for American's. Give them 6 months to go home, if they do not go home on there own they go to jail for 8 years hard labor digging ditches, then sent home.

In the S.W. if illegals were forced to go home out of 20,000 gangs in the US, I wonder what the new number would be?

Take away the trough, and there will be little need to "force" people to go home. Just with the economic downturn of 2008, the numbers were saying that illegals were heading home in record numbers.
Mexico's largest "income" is money being sent back to Mexico from their people in America, sending money back to their families. It is Mexico's largest "industry".
If this stops being the land of "free opportunity" for them, they will go home and not come back. Again, a proven program for success. Ask the folks of Oklahoma. They passed their illegal alien laws, and the illegals fled that state in such numbers the neighboring states starting complaining about the influx of illegals.

It should be illegal to hire any one that doesn't have proof they are here legally. Fine the business owner $1,000 per week, per illegal employee. It should be illegal to rent any place to them. Fine the property owner $1,000 per week, per illegal renter. It should be illegal for them to receive any benefit from the US government. The Federal employee that signed them up needs to be fired and sent to jail for fraud. Then the illegals would go home in record numbers.
