Until we as a Nation get the Safety Net Social Programs under control by Congress enacting a Law that states, United States Safety Net Programs are for AMERICAN CITIZENS ONLY. The border crisis will continue growing and the US Deficit will continue to grow.
I have a friend who is a retired Marine Staff Sergeant. He recently in a conservation told me a illegal who just appeared in America was better off Financially/ Medically etc than him.
He advised the Reagan signed law on "Double Dipping" or Pension Offset got him when he retired.
"If two-thirds of your government pension is more than your Social Security benefit, your benefit could be reduced to zero. If you take your government pension annuity in a lump sum, Social Security will calculate the reduction as if you chose to get monthly benefit payments from your government work."
He advised he does not receive SS even though he worked for many years and paid into SS after leaving, retiring from the Military.
He advised his health care was provided through the VA. His wife has Medicare and a supplement.
He advised an illegal just arriving could sign up for SSI and receive $914 for an individual and $1,371 for a couple. He would also be eligible for Residential Rental, Electrical, Utility Subsidies (Water -Sewer), Medicaid, Snap (Food Stamps) and a free Cell Phone.
He said damn the wall. Cut off the Social Programs to illegals and a Wall Would not be needed because the free loaders would stop coming.
