Over the past several weeks I have been getting quite a few Gripers checking in with news stories that really tick them off. Of course I am unable to post on all of them, however this is one that really got my dander up. This came over from Chris "Strawberry" Fields
As most of you know, I am not a real big Obama fan. I am kind of indifferent to what he is doing in Washington only because I know our government is bogged down in partisan politics. Both the republicans and the democrats have drawn lines in the sand and refuse to give and take an inch. One of the current hot topics in Washington and around the country is the increased influx of illegal immigrant children pouring over the boarder. These children are trying to sneak into the U.S. without their parents. First off, what the hell is going on here? The kids are trying to slide in without parents! Are the parents dead? Are they already here? Are these kids from orphanages? Nobody seems to really know what is going on here.
To top this off, President Obama just awarded a $50 million contract to a charitable group, Baptist Child & Family Services, so they can buy a Texas hotel and transform it into a 600 bed facility for illegal alien children. WHAT! WHAT! ARE YOU FREAKIN' KIDDING ME! The BCFS will take the Palm Aire Hotel and Suites in Weslaco, Texas and turn it into a temporary holding center for these illegal kids. They plan on hiring 650 employees to work at this new center. You may be saying, "Well what's wrong with that"? They can employ 650 more people while taking care of these poor kids that just went through hell and back to get into the U.S.
Let me tell you what is wrong with this. This new facility will have the 600 beds along with an Olympic sized swimming pool, tennis courts, a steam room, jacuzzi s, racquetball courts and a workout room. To top it off, some of the jobs here will pay up to $45.00 per hour. HOLY CRAP! The democrats claim that this facility is needed to keep potential disease transmission under control by having medical staff and psychological treatment workers will on site. The average length of stay for the youths will be between the ages of 12 and 17 is fifteen days.
After I read this story I felt like I just got kicked in the taxpayers testicles. I thought I may have seen my wallet open up on its own and dollar bills fly out the window. It just amazes me as to how much money the United States pays to help people from other countries. We spend, spend, spend while the people in this country are unemployed and eating in soup kitchens. We actually have U.S. citizens who are starving and have no idea where their next meal is coming from. We have people without health care and people without a roof over their heads. Instead of helping these folks out, we spend money on others like we are printing it. Hey, wait a minute, we are printing it.
The Bottom line here is that our government needs to stop being the charity one stop shop for the rest of the world. It's time we take care of our own and stop worrying about everyone else. As for these illegal immigrant kids, they need to go back to their countries. I know it sounds cold hearted, but America is busting from the seams with immigrants. Our country cannot sustain itself with the population size we currently have. As it grows, things will become worse. There will not be enough jobs, there will not be enough housing and crime will continue to rise at an alarming level. It's time for our President along with Congress to make some real tough decisions.
