Too many immigrants take advantage of system

I listen to these “Pro Invasion” proponents harkening back to when their ancestors came here, how great it made the country. The one thing that they leave out is that those people had no safety net. No welcome to America we are setting you up in a hotel and gas station chain or putting you and your entire family on welfare, food stamps, housing, Medicaid, and every other freebie that the working man has to pay for.

Those ancestors came here thinking the streets were paved with gold and quickly found out that you had to make your own way. They also had a high opinion of America, learned the language, assimilated and became part of the American culture. They studied and became legal American citizens.

There was also a point in time when we stopped all immigration so those who were here had time to assimilate and to love their new country. Today we have those in power within our own institutions teaching those coming to the country to hate it. That it is racist, homophobic, riddled with white privilege.

No wonder some won’t assimilate. They teach them how to take advantage of our system, to use every advantage to come here illegally and stay here on the taxpayers dime indefinitely – all for their vote. They are the Democrat Party. Leftists, Communists, and Socialists in place in every nook and cranny of the public sector and heads of religious institutions. They are the enemy with one goal – to overwhelm the system. To take down America. Vote for candidates that will stand firm against this invasion. Are you listening, Congressman Collins?
