A welfare scheme has just been exposed that American taxpayers everywhere need to know about.
Social Security recipients in particular should be both concerned and enraged by what is going on.
This from thepatriotjournal.com.
For years, the communist/globalist crime syndicate has been prioritizing illegal aliens over the law-abiding citizens who actually pay taxes in this country.
Unfortunately, this was essentially confirmed on Tuesday. It was then that Senator Marco Rubio (R-FL) took to the Senate floor to expose a welfare scheme that should enrage all American taxpayers, regardless of their political affiliations.
Rubio revealed that recent immigrants to the U.S. can often get more in federal payouts than Social Security recipients who have been paying into the system for their entire lives.
According to Rubio:
These Social Security recipients are now oftentimes getting meager benefits compared to what illegal aliens and other immigrants are receiving.
From Breitbart, Rubio said:
One of the things I see a lot in South Florida are people that have been in this country—they may have come from Cuba 45 years ago. They’ve worked here their entire lives. They retire. They get $800, $900, $1,000 a month from Social Security. And they run into somebody who just got here from Cuba three months ago, 29 years old, doesn’t work, and he’s given $1,500 a month in benefits by our government ’cause they’re ‘refugees.’
That ‘refugee,’ a year later, is traveling back to Cuba 15 times. So, you’re a refugee fleeing oppression from a place that you now go back and visit 15 times the following year.
Rubio explained:
And in the meantime. We’re giving you Medicaid, food stamps, health care for your children, cash payments from the refugee fund. So, imagine if you’ve been working here for 40 years and your Social Security check is smaller than the benefits going to a 28-year-old, able-bodied person who just got here.
This was also exposed during last month’s presidential debate. There, President Trump repeatedly accused Joe Biden of allowing a flood of migrants into this country. Once in the U.S., Trump claimed that these migrants are taking both jobs and government benefits from law-abiding Americans.
The mainstream media fired back by spending days on end accusing Trump of lying about these claims about migrants. What Rubio had to say on the Senate floor, however, indicated that Trump was telling the truth after all.
When checking the stats, they back up both Rubio and Trump.
A 2022 study from the Center for Immigration Studies found that 54 percent of households in this country that are headed by a migrant used one or more major welfare program. In contrast, just 39 percent of households headed by a natural-born American citizen does this.
This same study also showed that compared to U.S.-born households, immigrant-led households far more frequently earn food-related welfare, Medicaid, and the Earned Income Tax Credit.
This is what happens when America Last politicians are allowed to stay in power for years on end. It’s nothing short of despicable that this has escalated to this point.
Natural-born Americans who have been paying into Social Security for their entire lives are sometimes receiving less in benefits than migrants. What has our country come to?!
The Left will continue to claim it is pure nonsense to allege that illegal aliens are being prioritized over Americans. The numbers, however, tell a different story.
