    What a shit meme. If I were going to freeload off a country for welfare, I sure as shit wouldn’t pick the US. We have some awful social safety nets. SSI, Medicare, SNAP, Section 8 housing, are all shameful compared to most of the rest of the rich world.

      Also the vast majority of illegal immigrants don’t have access to any social welfare, so this meme is just blatantly false and racist, too.

      Asylum and immigration applications take years, and on the immigration one you have to prove you won’t need welfare and that you’ll be a benefit to this country.

      Like 2/3 of the people on welfare are white, rural folks. But it’s the immigrants causing problems.
