Do you think illegal immigrants should be able to use welfare/public assistance?

No, being illegal disqualifies them, period.

The only thing the government should give to ILLEGAL immigrants is a trip back to their country of origin.

Hell No. we can't even take care of our homeless Vets and the government pays all the illegals, something is wrong.

They are banned from receiving any benefits under current law.

Not in any way, shape, or form. Their own nations render very little assistance, why should we feel obligated to do so? We may have big hearts as a national but, why don't we render assistance to people of our own nation first. Homeless veterans and wounded warriors should come first and the rest may follow if funds allow. My 2 cents.

No, they have to go back.

Absolutely not - unlike todays media trying to legitimize these people with terms like "undocumented immigrants" - illegal is illegal, and anchor babies be damned. I am not heartless, but enough is enough. in a country where the only requirement to register to vote is a drivers license - I say they need to go.

No, they should not. If they do not legally work, pay taxes and support this country they should not receive the free handouts.

hell no they shouldn't. that is for the citizens of this country, not the criminals that come here illegally.

Look what happened to the original Indian people who welcomed new immigrants, they ended up in reservations. We are getting invaded again by new immigrants in massive numbers, impossible to assimilate quickly. Let's shut down immigration for at least 20 years right fudging now, before it is too late. English is the official language of the land. If not, offer Chinese too as official language, why only Spanish? I feel discriminated. Let's add French, German, Russian, and definitely all the Middle East languages too, or it is discrimination against Muslims. You want to be fair on the left, let's be fair across the board.
