Now I wonder what that word could be I think Jesse Jackson used it the other night when he was commenting on Obama (emissary to the devil).

Money going to the "Great Society" program for the last 50 years significantly exceeds the United States' total financial cost of all wars since the American Revolution. So with trillions of dollars spent, the big cities are nothing more than breeding grounds for slums and crime.

Over the last 20 years, productive companies and citizens have been taxed and legislated out of the urban areas by the liberals. Now the libs have realized that the tax generating base has left them without billions of dollars to squander on social programs.

So guess what?? Now there is legislation being developed to FORCE people to move back into the city. Commuters are being targeted, gas prices forced up and companies being pressured to give priorites to candidates that live in the "hood".

There is a huge amoung of illegals recieving welfare benefits for their children born here in America...they seem to get the most help from what I can see.

Unfortunately you're correct. Almost no one receiving WIC when I was a cashier at a grocery store could even speak English. The program has no test of citizenship to receive benefits. When I think of poor Americans who could use the help it does upset me that we are assisting foreign nationals with our taxpayer money. I also get furious with billions of dollars being sent as aid to third world nations when there are poor Americans who could use that kind of assistance.

If the child is born in America, then they get the benefits cuz the child is then American, born on American soil.....

I don't care if their children are born here or not.  They should all be shipped south of the border and not get a bloody thing.  They're draining our treasure, economy, and jobs.  They're the biggest threat to our security.  All illegal immigrants should be rounded up and kicked out.  They're the worst and growing worse every day.  God bless AMERICA and ISRAEL!!!!!

To get benefits they don't even have to prove that.

They just have to prove residency, not citizenship.

Live in Texas. WIC clients usually receive services in the county where they live. U.S. citizenship is not a requirement for eligibility.
