I left the not-so-great state of NJ in 2020 (and am never going back) after living there for 25 years, and let me tell you something: the illegal alien Mexican population is astonishing.
It feels like there's a literal pipeline being run from the border directly to NJ. In the past 20 years the illegal pop exploded and only accelerated within the last 5 years.
These fucking people were living better than me by the time I left. Free large housing for their 5 kids (it's a lie it's 20 guys to a room; maybe 20 years ago!), Free expansive medicare for their entire family, giant monthly food stamp allocations (2 carts at a time!) And of course cars cars cars.
Here's how the scam works: you immediately get a driver's license in NJ if you're illegal and you get funneled right to the welfare office. Since m & dad aren't legally "married," the woman is seen as a single mother with 5 kids. So she gets literally every benefit you could imagine. Meanwhile, dad moves in and has a cash-only job that pays literally 50k+ a year in some blue collar work, and they have the American fucking dream. Plenty of cash, no expenses. Even dad has healthcare because he's also a poor dreamer. They don't even have to pay taxes!
Meanwhile I was scraping by and with a newborn realized I was never going to make it there, not with $1200/mo baseline rent, forget ever owning a home or saving money. And Miguel and his six kids are enjoying a standard of living literally no legal citizen has ever enjoyed.
Goodbye, New Jersey. You were always shit but Jesus Christ.
I do not understand how anyone can defend propping up illegal immigrants with taxpayers' money. They aren't citizens, they don't pay taxes, and yet they get better treatment than those who do.
