It’s a bittersweet start to their American Dream.

Hordes of newly arrived South and Central American migrants are descending underground to peddle candy in subway stations and aboard trains across the Big Apple — often with babies strapped to their backs — in order to scrape by.

Maria Vaca, 25, who on Friday had been in New York for just eight days, said she needed money to pay rent to her cousin in the Bronx where she was staying with her husband and three kids. She said she collected $70 Thursday.
================================================
Way to go. At least they are not on welfare.

They will be dont worry.

They will probably require assistance if they are refugees, but that's temporary. A lot of these people are young, able-bodied, and willing to work and have manual labor skills. They're going to be more productive than many of the people who are on and off the welfare system here. Their payroll taxes will pay taxes for programs that support people who no longer work. Maybe we should welcome (most of) them.
