Did you seriously just post this? Lol..... So you don't see how the parents benefit from this situation?

You really don't think illegals are receiving food stamps? I guess you also think that ONLY those that truly qualify for food stamps are receiving food stamps. ..... You couldn't crack an egg on Easter Sunday

The benefits are for the child not the parents. No they're not receiving food stamps.

He doesn't even consider medical services health care.....his argument is "they receive no benefits"..... "Except that"....."and that"..... " but your numbers are **** because they never contradict"......"your source is ****"
He's yet to counter with anything of substance.

Health care and emergency medical services are different. Everyone receives emergency medical services in this country. That's not a bad thing

And I'm not asking his source to contradict itself. I'm just saying if it's a non biased organization with the intent of studying immigration, you'd think it would've found something it likes about immigration in over a decade of research.

Funny thing about that...he says repeal and replace Obamacare. Yet his website doesn't say anything about health care at all. But in every interview and debate he says "replace it with something wonderful." Yet zero details save the buying across State lines and making sure preexisting conditions are covered and that happened at the last debate. So what could I deduce?

He has no plan. But it's going to be terrific. Just like everything else he likes to ramble on about that attracts the mouth breathers in droves to vote for him.

And what's even more funny? Neither he nor Ted Cruz have anything regarding an alternative to Obamacare on their websites. You'd think a hot button issue they like to talk about at debates and speeches would have some sort of reference on their website. But neither one do.

I'm not certain a plan is needed. Can't the plan be to open up competition and let the free market work?

Other than being argumentative as you like to do, do you really trust Trump to make good on any of his promises?

You've already proven that you can't recognize a non-biased organization by using SPLC as your source... you know, the organization that the FBI dumped because of their bias.

And I already addressed your point about "something it (CIS) likes about immigration" with the following from their website. But then, as you tend to repeatedly do, you changed your position to request a full article.

Immigration increases the overall size of the U.S. economy. Of this there is no question. In 2009 immigrants accounted for 15 percent of all workers. More workers and more people mean a bigger GDP. Immigrants are 15 percent of U.S. workers. They likely account for about 10 percent of GDP or more than a trillion dollars annually.

I'm sure you're a decent guy 88 and would probably enjoy having a beer with you some time, but you should honestly learn how to be a little more consistent and rational with the points you try to make. It would serve you well. :hi:

So why do you guys think that the GOP establishment are dead set against Trump? They think he can't beat Hillary or they can't control him like Rubio?

It's that he can't beat Hillary. It's also the fact that media has s habit of building Trump up and then tearing him down at just the right moment..

I'm not being irrational. They've not written a single pro immigration article ever

The SPLC has however labeled groups as hate groups from both sides

If I didn't feel it was probably made up, or more likely just something he heard and made it into a soundbite, I'd probably agree. But make no mistake, he's doing little more than tossing bread at his circus.

I assume you do a proforma on each potential income property. Would you buy a property that wouldn't allow you to cover out of pocket costs? In my area of Texas property taxes on a mid range single home property can easily be $4,000 - $5,000 a year.

I agree that after the purchase any change in rent is totally based on supply and demand.

I sold all single homes except one which is in process of an expensive remodel, and it will be on the market shortly. I still have a few apartments and commercial properties, and some land, but I hope to be totally cashed by age 70. I am 66.

Trump held s rally in Arkansas where he said he was angry at the fact that Iran is buying missiles from Russia and not the U.S. WTF

It is easily about control. And while he is having a more immediate impact on the GOP, if he wins the general it will be a major hit to the current power held by both major parties. He's a tear down candidate where it concerns the current duopoly (knowingly or not).

That makes me more likely to vote for him..I actually already voted for Cruz...the guy is really brilliant he just does bonehead things sometimes
