In recent reports, 10,000 Syrian Refugees arrived in LA 5 days ago. The cost of the average family of 4 came to $257,480 (http://100percentfedup.com/breaking-first-10000-syrian-refugees-arrive-in-la-estimated-cost-to-taxpayers-for-family-of-four-is-257480/#).
Let's ignore the Potential Terrorist issue for now. Let's ignore that the Boston Bombers came to America under the same exact pretense, and how they collected over $100,000 in welfare benefits, and their mom was driving a Mercedes while on Welfare.
Let's just look at the initial issue on the table. Where is the money coming from to pay for just Shipping these people here? This campaign to bring over Syrians has cost American tax payers $1,600,000,000 (1.6 Billion). and Hillary Clinton says she wants to raise that to 65,000 people.....If we assume the cost will be similar. The UPFRONT cost to the tax payer will be $10,400,000,000 (10.4 Billion)....Now, I know that to career politicians, no amount of money sounds ridiculous because they are talking about spending everyone else's money. But at what point do we tell them to stop spending our money? Politicians spend money like Hookers on vacation, no one can deny that. Billions of dollars every year go out the door. We've given $16,000,000,000 to Palestine and it was found that almost all of it went to Terrorist Organizations. We've given $5,000,000,000 to ISIS for that Traitor Bergdhal. $2,000,000,000 to Morsi to oppress his people in Egypt, and over $500,000,000 to Al-Qaeda and the Taliban in Syria....I mean "Syrian Rebels". AND WE'RE 18 TRILLION IN DEBT.
....The second issue to address is, $1.6 Billion is just the upfront cost. Let's look at back-end costs. Of the total estimated 50 Million Islamic Immigrants that have moved into Europe, an estimated 80% are on government assistance (http://www.gatestoneinstitute.org/5856/welfare-jihad). So if we are to assume that the figures will be the same, or similar, then we are bringing people to this country so they can be on welfare. They will be our permanent temperamental 16 years old children that complain their allowance isn't enough, and how we all need to respect their rights as independent individuals.....That's what we have to look forward to.
...Meanwhile the VA just complained they are $2.6 Billion short. 1 in 50,000 veterans are homeless. We have Millions on Welfare ALREADY, and many on the brink.....I'm not going to stipulate why certain groups push for more poverty stricken immigration, but it seems to me that a certain group is looking to shore up some extra guaranteed votes. Because they are the people always talking about how people should get free stuff.

Cpl Robert Masi - The problem is solving others' problems is sexy. Solving homelessness is just work. Taking in refugees from, overseas allows us to puff out our chest and say "See we stand by the quote on the statue of liberty. 'Give me your tired, your poor, Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free, The wretched refuse of your teeming shore. Send these, the homeless, tempest-tossed, to me: I lift my lamp beside the golden door.' we will take your displaced folks see how awesome America is!" While helping the homeless in America is just an admission that we have problems like every other nation. The sad reality is the homeless in America are our dirty secret that nobody likes to talk about. Sad under any circumstance. Compounded by the fact that anywhere from twenty to twenty five percent of those are veterans who served in our armed forces. That goes from tragic to unconscionable. So instead of dealing with our problems, we just try to fix everyone else's problems.

It seems on the front that our homeless Vets or otherwise is not an important issue at this moment. Adding more people to the welfare state is.

where else are they going to get people to vote for them? already snagged all the brain dead in the states and now they are importing them. our economy is already crippled and now we just wait for the last push to send it over the edge. "refugees" will be that push. it happened in France, and nearly happened in Germany. just wait and see.

Cpl Robert Masi This is what I have been saying all along. I have no problem with the US taking in refugees. I simply think that we need to start with the America Refugees living on the streets, the people who work hard for menial wages and cannot afford to put food on the table. Once we solve our own problem, then we can take in refugees from foreign lands. We are telling our neighbor we will help fix their house, while our house is run down. Makes no sense.
