The
fundamental reason that illegal immigrants are a net drain is that they have a low average
education level, which results in low average earnings and tax payments. It also means a large
share qualify for welfare programs,

Can someone explain this to me like I’m seven? If I were illegally living in a foreign country and planning to continue, I don’t think I’d be notifying the government of my presence.

To qualify for welfare you have to prove residency, not residency in terms of immigration status, but physical residence. To prove this, you bring in a cellphone bill or utility bill showing the same mailing address.

This is how you receive SNAP (food stamps). FFS in California or Minnesota you can even vote. It’s unlawful to ask for an ID to vote.
So just like getting food stamps illegally, you can vote without scrutiny.

Irony: in our to members of professional organizations such as the Bar Association, AMA, ALPA etc, you have to prove who you are. All of which don’t provide supplements to purchase food.



Roscoe, you’ve let the inmates run the asylum. Good luck putting this genie back, (in this thread).

I think it’s funny when Canadians tell Americans what government they should have.

I mean, you guys have aced it with Trudeau, so you obviously know better.

[David MacRay]

Me too.

Just like when you tell us ghost stories about those TC guys that haunt your nightmares, like I would somehow know who they are.

Then go on about us being a “good Canadian” and communists.

“Blah blah blah, Truedoh.”

Classic comedy right there!

Fair enough. Is that on purpose or just a quirk of two government offices that don’t talk to each other?

The ID thing blows my mind. Sure the ID requirement up here is pretty washy but at least there’s something.
