*** begin quote ***
GILL: Let me ask you one more: What percentage of Somali-headed households are on welfare in general?.
BALLOU: I don’t know.
GILL: It’s 81%…After ten years of being in the United States, what percentage of Somali households continue to be on welfare?
BALLOU. I don’t know.
GILL: The number is 78%.
*** and ***
GILL: What percentage of working-age Somalis who have been in the U.S. for ten years or more, how many of them speak English very well?
BALLOU: I don’t know.
GILL: The answer is about half. That seems pretty low, doesn’t it?
*** end quote ***
Hard to see any positive impact of “Somali Immigration” except that the D’s seem to like it just fine. The Taxpayers of Minnesota and the USA may have a much different perspective.
I have a few “modest” solutions:
- All felons are immediately deported. If they are naturalized citizens, then they are immediately “denaturalized”!
- All Federal programs must end. If States want to fund something, then they can do it.
- All immigrants must pass a basic English test or will not be admitted.
- All immigrants must have a sponsor, just like back in the old days. The sponsor bears responsibility for those they sponsor — if a felon is committed, the sponsor goes to jail.
That should clean stuff up in a hurry. It’s all about incentives.
