Considering all the illegal immigrants in this country, do you think they should be able to use welfare or public assistance considering they aren't citizens and that many working Americans are denied welfare or public assistance.

Vague question. What are the evidences that these illegal immigrants are using welfare or public assistance? Give an example. They’re illegal and not entitled. Emergent care Yes till all proper procedures are performed like deportation. They are still human beings. Immigration is a complex subject. We cannot just talk about the “what.” We should talk about the “why” and “how.”

NO and NO!. My question is what happens when we rummage out of money. We have people here that needs help and they sure are shorty charging them. Vets homeless and in general a screwed up government. Some of the leaders do thing because of the party, not us. corruption in the highest place. How does a Senator manage to put away millions on a salary of less than 200,000 per year. And I believe before it’s over they are going to be pissing all over us.

There is a mixed view here both political and social. For instance we are aware that certain political views see new immigrants as a boost in the number of future voters. Then there is the concern of the natural view of sympathy for those who are ill and have little or nothing. As I read the current law it should be very carefully "revised" so that each of these factors can be dealt with. Now I know little about 'watering holes' and other items which attack our current laws. As it presently is, the law is anyone entering the US illegally is an illegal. Illegals have no rights and should recieve NO benefits from the Government. In order to deal with the increased inflow of immigrants perhaps some of the funding given to our global enemies could be directed to the work of determing who the immigrant is, where he/she comes from, background, and abilities. Those who are here illegally, within the limit agreed to for in-coming immigrants should then be closely monitored, given 3 months to apply for US Citizenship, and find a job, and a permenant address. During those 3 months they should be monitored electronically. Any violation of this agreement should result in a immediate return to their country. Don't get me wrong, politically I agree 100% with the idea that illegals should be returned by ship with a military escort not an aircraft! However, I am always stricken by the il, underfed chilren below the ages of 8 or 9 and whose confusion, and lack of understanding needs some sort of social response. In closing, I am non-political Independent, and one who has no experience in law. I am quite aware of many of the short-comings of our government and the politicians who are given the rsponsibility for running it. However, I am also sure that a commission of honest, non-political, strait-forward men and women could easily ease the social restrictions of this law. If I am wrong, then I and many, many, others have wasted our lives defending a flag of little meaning!

Absolutely NOT. They should not receive ANY assistance or support of any kind. They are here illegally.
