Maggie's Farm

End welfare. It is nothing more than robbing taxpayers to pay indigents and the lazy for their votes. It harms everyone; the taxpayers, the recipients and the politicians. It is unconstitutional.


End all immigration. We don't need it, we have too many people, we are broke and in debt. And it is harmful to citizens and contrary to common sense. It was always a Democrat plan to replace citizen voters so Democrats could seize more power. put our effort into finding and deporting people here illegally AND to encouraging recent legal immigrants to assimilate.

I absolutely believe in taking care of our people/citizens. Where we made the mistake was to do it at the federal level AND with an unrestricted checkbook. I have seen documented examples where single mothers receive in excess of $60,000 a year in cash and benefits. Even if we were to keep a federal welfare system it should have some upper limit; perhaps the amount one could earn in a minimum wage job. But what I would prefer is that churches and charities do this and not the government. I strongly suspect that for every dollar given to a welfare recipient there is at least a dollar paid in wages to a government employee to manage the bureaucracy. We are broke and in debt and our federal welfare exceeds $1.2 trillion a year and the states spend approximately the same in matching and supplemental funds. My fear is that welfare will indeed end but it will end when our economy drops off the cliff that is coming at us at 100 MPH. We are due for a horrible economic disaster. It isn't mandatory, smart and proactive leaders could prevent it and fix our economy but history shows us that smart and proactive people don't seek public employment or political office. So we are doomed to repeat history and this time it will likely be a disaster of biblical proportions.
