You sir are correct. Milton Friedman speaks truth. I believe this is the quote you are referring to. "I am in favor of free immigration, but not if you have a welfare state. The United States had free immigration throughout 19th century, and up until World War I, really. But that was possible because the United States was not a welfare state. He also said "When you start paying people to be poor, you wind up with an awful lot of poor people."

It's a real issue, and ties back into the birthright citizenship question before SCOTUS. Not just who people think either. There are thousands of Chinese nationals who are paying surrogate American mothers to have their children for access to benefits. [Hidden Content] Friedman succinctly stated--paraphrased--you can't have open borders and a welfare state. That's one of the reasons why I (as a conservative libertarian, for lack of a better definition) have always been against the Libertarian Party position of open borders unless we do away with the welfare state first. Which will never happen...

I'm not going to go line-by-line through census data right now. But, SIPP (Census Bureau) numbers do show a majority of households receiving SNAP and/or WIC benefits are headed up by illegal immigrant 'heads of households' applying for their children. Of all immigrant-headed households (naturalized citizens and non-citizens) with young children, 43 percent are dependent on at least one of these programs. [Hidden Content]

Mark me down as someone who is stating very clearly that they were mimicking the imagery of what is portrayed by artists on Death Row Records. You have also specifically stated that the kids were mimicking the imagery by shooting a “video with guns”. Like videos by artists on “Death Row Records”. NOT A SINGLE PERSON said anything about the shooting being INTENTIONAL.
