I'm curious why any tax-paying American citizen would support this...
"Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez Proposes Full Welfare Benefits for All Immigrants, Regardless of Legal Status"
https://www.newsweek.com/alexandria-ocasio-cortez-just-society-trump-immigrant-visa-ban-1463422
This proposal is uncosted.....but a good question:why would we spend money on the poor in need of help?
Why not look at expenditures that are happening now, and are
vast.
Let's look at real big-ticket items.
$2.1 trillion tax cut: the rich are winning

Or the military? We spend more than the next 12 biggest countries COMBINED, >1/3 of global expediture on war - that's YOU, the US taxpayer spending more than $640 Billion on the military
every year! All those defense contractor McMansions and BMWs, all those lobbyists 2nd and 3rd houses, all those boondoggles of billion-dollar failed weapons systems and futile wars killing hundreds of thousands of people - including thousands of americans -
you paid for them, with
your taxes!
As AOC says, we only ask about $ when it comes to the poor or the non-white or the immigrant. We have trillions for the military and the rich.
Why aren't all these outraged taxpayers talking about
them?
