Starting tomorrow, if you’re on public assistance, you can’t wire money out of the country.

[struth]

Authoritarianism is many things. You seem to believe it’s just things you don’t like.

Do you think it’s okay for the government to tell you that you can’t send your hard earned money to someone else?

No, and you are free to do that

Nobody is saying you can’t

 

[Concerned American]

You cant funnel millions if you can only do $3,000 at a time.

How many illegal aliens are in this country? Conservatively 15M. If even a million of them ask there SJW democrat buddies to send money for them that is over 3M. All of which doesn't address the question I had about sending cash through the mails.

I didn't listen to the actual quote, but he says "we are going to start pushing that you cannot wire money out of the country". Doesn't that make it sound like they're going to try to make that change and haven't already?

This dude is kind of mealy mouth.

The genius of what Trump's administration is doing is that when Progressives reverse all of this it will add hundreds and hundreds of billions of dollars to the yearly deficit. Of course, the Progs will finally keep their promise and raise the taxes on the rich and corporate interests into the stratosphere to pay for it all. And of course, the 18 trillion dollars or so committed here, will reverse course and there will be huge losses also to the companies and areas involved with new manufacturing plants. So the real issue is what is the correct balance of public private side economics? It is clear that you guys are passing that combination in a movement from progressive socialism to communism.

But 78% of them are on welfare. These people ownt know enough non welfare recipients in order to make it work.

You are underestimating their ability to circumvent laws that we've been taught to respect. The fraud in MN, NY and LA that has been exposed over the past week or so should be a wake up call. These immigrants have been dealing with corruption that would be unheard of in the US.

 

[White 6]

Freeze the money. Out of the country wire transfers are already heartily regulated and monitored

I see you like simplistic, optimistic solutions.

Some will, be it wont be as rampant.

Yes

 

[Correll]

It’s a silly assumption to make given it’s an out public assistance and illegal aliens aren’t on public assistance.

It’s about citizens.

What’s the lawful basis for preventing citizens from sending their money overseas?

I'm not a lawyer, I don't know the legal basis.

The POLITICAL and MORAL justification is obvious. We fucked up allowing the invasion, legal and illegal and we are not happy about it.

Really, this is going to be a problem for America for AT LEAST... 3 more generations, if not longer.

 

[SweetSue92]

The policy is that they can't send any money overseas, including their own money. Apparently the authoritarians think that once you're on public assistance, the government gets to tell you what you can do with your own money.

If they're sending enough money overseas that they qualify for taxpayer assistance somehow, then yeah. I don't want to pay for that. Why do you?

 

[rightwinger]

What do Democrats do to help people in general aside from subsidizing the rich and pampering unions?

In addition to welfare, education grants, job training, small business set asides, healthcare subsidies

 

[JWBooth]

I don't know how they are gonna pull this off, but it is a good idea.
These funds are intended to provide an income to those unwilling to provide for themselves. Why should monies taken coercively from the productive be allowed to be transferred to a third or fourth party?

 

[struth]

In addition to welfare, education grants, job training, small business set asides, healthcare subsidies

Can you give me an example of Dems doing any of that?

 

[struth]

Helping the poor does not keep them poor

Democrats also provide funds for advanced education, jobs programs, small business loans

What keeps people poor is low paying jobs

What keeps people poor is the inability to get out of a low paying job

How that happens is Dem policies that promote dependence instead of independence

 

[struth]

What do Republicans do to help poor people?

Allow them to keep more of their own money they earn, they also created the earned income tax credit which has been the best program in to lest people out of poverty

Additionally people that ID as conservative ate far more charitable then people that ID as liberal like yourself, and it’s not even close

Republicans demean those on public assistance as lazy ……Get a job!

But many on public assistance have full time jobs but still need help with rent, food and healthcare

Poor people pay little in taxes
Democrats make sure of that

It is a myth that Conservatives are more charitable
Most of their charitable contributions are to churches they belong to and pay for things like salaries, facilities and maintenance

 

[JoeB131]

Another step in regaining control.

Follow the money.

Not sure how they are going to enforce that.

I've never had a bank ask me what my sources of income are.

No actually them don’t, they want to raise taxes

The gop keeps them low and also created the earned income tax credit which has lifted more people out of poverty then any govt program

No it’s not a myth, here’s yet another scientific study showing just that Are conservatives more charitable than liberals in the U.S.? A meta-analysis of political ideology and charitable giving - PubMed

Yes they should get a job, not sure why you think working is demeaning

Yes they do, and they should work to get off those programs and be more dependent…hence why the EIC should be expanded
