I'm not against immigrants, if they do it LEGALLY and work, instead of take advantage. I think the entire welfare system needs to be overhauled....in my community there are too many people, legal citizens even, who are young and able to work, but they choose to sit around and have stair step babies to keep drawing money.

I was unable to find any sort of validity check which showed any information at all supporting the validity of the letter. I was able to checkwith some people I know through working with Medicaid systems what the support raqtes would be for the woamn described in Florida with the eight children. They stated that in their professional opinion with many years of service that $144,000/yr was not plausible unless the woamn in question waqs committing criminal fraud, taht that would not be the normal rate. There are prople who commit fraud against all sorts of government programs. Some are individuals, some are professionals such as doctors, and some are large corporations. Many federal contractors and beneficiaries get fined each year, many have to refund payments, and a certain number go to jail each year. The letter as written seems to imply that this woman is a typical recipient of federal funds. That does not match with any verifiable information I have been able to find on how much various social programs actually pay.Gardoghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03041915482978201041noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3358420.post-42492330048280660642010-05-13T19:20:05.877-04:002010-05-13T19:20:05.877-04:00The problem is: People who forward this kind of in...The problem is: People who forward this kind of information don't want to research... they like the way the information reads, so they spread it.<br />We have to be self-policing when it comes to this stuff...

No doubt we are taking care of illegals and we ought to take of our own first. The author of the email only goes by d'Lynn. Doesn't say where in Fla. If you can not get some sort of credible source from a email, it is no doubt a lie, fake and or something to inflame a already tense situation. <br /> Granted, some would say why would he put his real name in the email? Well if you write a letter to the editor you do. It's called accountablity. Something most of these type of emails rarely do.

Common sense should tell you that there is no way anyone receives this amount of money on public assistance. Another misleading bit of information is that illegal immigrants don't pay taxes. Well actually most of them do . They cannot get tax refunds but taxes are taken out of their checks too. I'm sure there are some that don't just like a lot of americans don't. I read an article a few years ago that they contribute over millions of dollars in taxes. This is why they are still here. If they were not of any benefit to this country i'm 100% sure they would have been given the boot a long time ago. People need to educate themselves and don't believe everything you hear.
