rhetoric

 They are not illegal aliens because we caught them. Once captured they are now documented. They are given social security numbers and become immediately eligible for Medicaid. So that's why we can proudly declare, no illegals are receiving any benefits! Yeah, that's the reason for that. It's the same as saying Korea and Vietnam weren't wars. Technically they are not, because Congress never declared war on either of those nations. But over 100,000 United States soldiers were killed in those "wars" that technically never happened. We weren't in those wars. They are only referred to as wars today, years after the fact, because of political pressure to do so. When grieving parents are calling you out on your double talk on that, the rhetoric changes rapidly. 

 This past year I listened as Governor Moore and others insisted that there would be no new taxes. Instead, they just increased fees, fines, and penalties. No new taxes, just raised the ones we already had. Some of them were doubled, like the cannabis sales tax. Taxes on gambling also increased by half. Yes, get the people hooked on smoking pot and gambling and then start increasing the tax collected on those vices. And you can't say anything about that, it would be like telling those collecting snap benefits they can't buy lobster, potato chips and Pepsi! No, we will just increase the taxes on those as well. The government shall give you money and the government will take it away. And that's the socialist agenda in a nutshell. 

  It's a bit of a change in policy from the old days. Remember when your parents would say, I brought you into this world I can take you out? It was a figurative thing meaning you would be held accountable for your actions. Today the government is enabling you to do just that, take out that child, as long as you do it before the child gets born! You're not a real person until you are born. The government is even funding a portion of that, although you will hear a great deal of double talk involving all of that. Now the government is even deciding what is a mental illness and what isn't. Yeah, the government instituting laws to enable deviant behaviors as perfectly normal. Hey, it's only deviant if we say it is deviant. It's like being illegal. You're only illegal when I declare you to be so, not because you broke the law. It's fine as long as everyone is doing it. I recall when that wasn't the case at all, 99 out of a hundred could be doing that and it was still wrong. Yeah, it's like morality and ethics, they don't change when no one is looking, or they become inconvenient. 

  No illegals are receiving benefits or voting because they do not have a social security number. If they have a social security they are not illegal. The social security number they have may be fraudulent but they got one, so they are not illegal anymore. I robbed the bank so I'm not poor anymore. The number can be verified using E-Verify but is not mandatory except for government contractors and a few states. 99% of the time your employer or "benefits" advisor just assumes the number is valid. That's why many employers declare they did nothing wrong, those workers have a social security number. There is no requirement for them to verify that. It's like asking for voter ID, why that would be discriminatory!     DACA people can receive a social security number simply by declaring themselves a DACA. Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals. No documentation required,  just that you are here. We'll take your word for that. You get a two year deferment, completely renewable, to prevent you from being deported. Yes, you get a social security number so you are now documented, not really illegal because that is being deferred you didn't break the law your parent/guardian or person smuggling you across the border did. So, you're good to go. You may even get a free college education if you want that, all at the taxpayers expense. You're not an illegal! 

  Yeah, government double talk at its' finest. Google this: when did the United States Government recognize Korea and Vietnam as wars? You won't get a straight answer to that because the Unites States government never officially declared that we were involved in those wars. Everyone knew that we had our troops over there, fighting and dying in those wars but, they weren't really wars at all. That is the official government stance on that. Well, unless you ask any politician in office or hoping to be in office that is. Then you will hear about the great sacrifice our veterans made in defending freedom in those wars! Yeah, same as kissing your baby. They love babies but you can kill them if you want to. It's a choice. 

                                                                                      

                                   Yeah, visiting wounded warriors, but they weren't in any war! 

                                    Not an official war anyway, not really.
