Texas taxpayers spent $678 million on healthcare for illegal immigrants | Top Stories | Star-Telegram.com

Geez. I feel a whole lot better now. The state of Georgia, where I live, only spent $188 million last year on healthcare for illegal immigrants. It seems that the people of Texas spent a lot more.

This is why I hate liberalism, and I know liberalism is evil. The preamble to the Constitution says:

We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defence, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America.

Nowhere does it say that we are to take care of the rest of the world, especially those who shouldn’t be here in the first place.

Now I am all for Christian charity. I believe in helping others, and I try to help others as much as I can. What I have learned is that there are those who will take advantage of you if you allow it. When you try to help people like that, all you are doing is enabling bad behavior. Providing for illegals is not helping them; it is enabling them to continue bad behavior. It is enabling them to continue to break the law without accountability or personal responsibility.

There are some you will never be able to help, and one thing we should never do is help illegals. They aren’t here because they want to make America a better place. They are here because they will do whatever it takes to steal what we have. They don’t care about us, and they don’t care about our country.

They just stole $678 million from the state of Texas, and this looting the American taxpayers’ pockets happens every day. Why aren’t we prosecuting this people?

The dirty little secret about illegal immigration is that the vast majority of those who come here can’t get here legally. They have diseases we have irradicated, or they have criminal records. 29 percent of those in American jails today are illegal immigrants.

If I sound like I’m angry, I am. The Bible says in Romans 13 that as Christians, we are to respect our government. You cannot be in God’s will if you are doing what illegal immigrants are doing.

Yeah, there might actually be some of these people who are saved, but they’ll answer for this, and they’ll get into heaven by the skin of their teeth. Regardless, they aren’t living the way that Christ called Christians to live.

Despite what we have been told about these people being so hard working and honest, if they were, they wouldn’t come across the border illegally, they wouldn’t depend on us for healthcare, education, and all of this other stuff.

We should be taking care of our own people first. There is only so much tax money to do that. I for one and sick and tired of working my butt off to provide for myself and help my children, and having to give up my hard earned money so these people can have benefits I don’t have, my children don’t have, and my grandchildren don’t have.

It’s got to stop. If liberals want to help these people fine. They can give up their money. They can transfer their wealth.

Income redistribution is evil. If liberals want to be fair, then actually be fair. Give up your wealth. You take care of these parasites. I’m tired of being ripped off, and I’m not going to apologize for it. I’m all for compassion, but I’m not for being stupid.  This is stupid.

No one should ever be forced to be charitable. God wants us to be cheerful givers. He wants us to give because we want to, not because we are forced to. I’m tired of being forced to be charitable to those who neither deserve help, nor are willing to help themselves.

Verse of the Day

At that time the disciples came to Jesus, saying, "Who is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven?" And calling to him a child, he put him in the midst of them and said, "Truly, I say to you, unless you turn and become like children, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven. Whoever humbles himself like this child is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven." (Matthew 18:1-4, ESV)
