They say that watching federal laws being written and enacted is much like watching sausage being made. Lots of weird parts and unknowns go into the make-up but in the end - it just looks like any other sausage.....
The current sausage being created in the congress is of course, The Gang of Eight's 900 page omnibus immigration reform bill... apparently there are so many exceptions and variances that even the small Senate Judiciary Committee is split on many of them... Case in point:
"In one vote, Sen. Jeff Sessions, Alabama Republican, tried to prevent
anyone but citizens and green-card holders from being able to claim the
Earned Income Tax Credit, which uses the tax code to transfer money to
the poor.
But Sen. Charles E. Schumer, New York Democrat, said
that would deny the tax credit not only to legalized immigrants but also
refugees, asylum-seekers and other legal workers."
Setting all of the dozens of other problem areas aside, passing this bill with this verbiage would meant that the minute we grant amnesty to these illegal law breakers, they become eligible for welfare, Earned Income Tax Credit (one of the greatest misnomers of all time) and it follows that Medicaid, SNAPS, Section 8 housing assistance wouldn't be far behind.
This brings up two questions -- Actually a hell-of-a-lot more than two - but here are the two:
1. Can anyone reading this article name ONE nation in the world that welcomes immigrants and grants them full gob'mint welfare bennies from day one? How attractive does that make sneaking across our borders to retire early.....!
2.Despite Senator Chuck-You Schumer's protestations - how in God's name can the tax payers of a country that is already borrowing a trillion dollars ($1,000.000.000.000) per year going to be able to afford to subsidize the living, eating, and health standards of 11,000.000 more people? Remember, the gob'mint has NO money, only that which they take from us. Which begs the follow up question - how deep in their own pockets are Chuckie and his fellow big spenders willing to go to support this zillion dollar hit on our national budget?
Right - I agree! Zero! Zippo! Nada!
