And how can this be defended?

IF she was giving money to just any illegals then I would be pissed, but these people have suffered even if they came here iilegally. IMO they deserve some relief.

The irony makes me want to through things. I didn't get **** from the government, lost everything and have been a law abiding tax payer all my life. **** Hilary. Seriously!!! It's about time we start thinking about the people that have been here all their damn lives.

I don't get **** either, but i really don't care because I don't NEED it. These people NEED it right now! They may be illegals, but they are still people.

Agreed, but I think we should probably put a little priority on the people that pay taxes here.

And no offence to you or past service men. But you guys aren't the best paid. I don't know how good your benefits are. But seriously, do they think you can just restart your life from scratch with nothing? No. I agree with you. You and the other AMERICANS in your situation should be paid BEFORE any imigrants. (notice I didn't say illegal.)

So you're saying that even immigrants that are in this country legally should be on the bottom of the list? I just think it should go by need and that is it.

For Chrissakes everyone in this country was an immigrant at one time unless you are an American Indian. I say American Indians should be put at the front of any line when it involves disaster relief. I mean they are the true natives of this land we inhabit.

agreed on the Native American thing. I know we were all imigrants here at one time. But not during a time of need for relief like this. The topic of us all originally being imigrants at one time is a topic for a different thread.

So a legal immigrants life is less important that someone who was a immigrant 5-10 years ago? That really doesn't make any sense. I understand the argument about illegal immigrants but not ones that are here legally and paying taxes, etc.

I wouldn't completely agree with that. I know some damn rich people who aren't citizens. They make much more than we do and pay more taxes than we do. But us > them when it comes to who should get more benefits?
