Makes as much sense as anything else you people come up with.
Looks like the itinerary for a DNC convention or a perhaps a supplemental to Rules for Radicals....![]()
Yeah, right.Study finds refugees actually pay the US government thousands more than they get from it
On average, it costs about $15,000 to help settle a refugee, including both initial background checks as well as job and English training once they arrive. As refugees are also immediately eligible for welfare assistance and Medicaid, the government spends approximately $92,000 in governmental assistance for the first 20 years each refugee spends in the US.
Over the same time, refugees pay an average of $129,000 in taxes — netting the government approximately $21,000 more than it spends.
The study also looked at how refugees fared once they settled in the US compared to Americans who were born here.
On average, refugees who arrived before they turned 14 finished high school and went to college at the same rates as their native-born peers. Older teens who arrived in their late teens struggled the most and had much lower graduation rates, due, in part, to the fact that they come with low English skills and are often separated from their parents.
As for those who come to the US as refugees as adults, most struggled with low employment rates and reliance on government assistance at first. But in only six years in their new country, the same group of refugees surpassed native-born Americans it came to employment and their reliance on welfare or food stamps.
According to this study, refugees aren't quite the drain on society that some lawmakers have painted them to be.

Until the real nutters took over when President BlackMan was elected, I had only heard of the Alinsky book in 70’s Poli Sci classes at UCSB. I’d been around progressive politics my whole life and never heard anybody talk about it. But for the past several years, it’s a regular topic among the nutters.

Good lord counselor, I'm not serious...you should lighten up and know when your chain is being yanked, Ya humorless wank.U

It's amazing how you pull out your Crystal Ball at just the right time. So moving forward, any gains or positive shifts in jobs or the economy will be directly attributed to President Trump since, in your words, the momentum from the Obama years are gone.Right? I think I've been saying since I joined that when the Obama momentum ends, after a year, we are going to be looking at a Trump economy...protectionism, low morale among workers, instability, etc....and that stuff is starting to sink in.
Hat$ off to the taxpayer.""Today SpaceX achieved a spectacular and historic success.
Seven years ago, the Augustine commission said that NASA's Moon program had to be cancelled, because the development of the necessary heavy lift booster would take 12 years and 36 billion dollars.
SpaceX has now done that, on its own dime, in half the time and a twentieth of the cost. And not only that, but the launch vehicle is three quarters reusable.
This is a revolution. The naysayers have been completely refuted.
The Moon is now within reach. Mars is now within reach.
The moment is at hand to open the space frontier. America should seize the time.
And to the SpaceX team, let us offer this salute:
You did it. They said it couldn't be done, but you did it. You made it look easy, but we know it wasn't.
You took your knocks. You took your failures. But you fought it through.
Fortune favors the brave. Fortune favors the smart. But most of all, fortune favors the tough.
Talk about the right stuff. You guys are great.
Hats off!""
Agreed. But America's greatness now is not on reaching toward the stars. It's building a tall concrete wall thousands of miles along mountain ranges and rivers at billions of dollars in American taxpayer cost to ensure thousands of species of animals no longer have open habitats to continue their life cycles of tens of thousands of years.""Today SpaceX achieved a spectacular and historic success.
