LOS ANGELES (CBSLA.com) — A projected $650 million in welfare benefits will be distributed to illegal alien parents in 2013, county officials said Monday.


Supervisor Michael D. Antonovich announced the latest figures from the Department of Public Social Services, which showed more than $376 million in CalWORKs benefits and food stamps combined have been distributed through July to illegal alien parents for their native-born children.
Approximately $54 million in welfare payments are issued each month, consisting of nearly $20 million in CalWORKs and $34 million in food stamp issuances, according to the data.

An estimated 100,000 children of 60,000 undocumented parents receive aid in Los Angeles County, according to Antonovich, who said this year’s projections — up about $1 million from the nearly $53 million in total benefits issued in July 2012 — underscore the economic impact of the nation’s immigration debate.


“When you add the $550 million for public safety and nearly $500 million for healthcare, the total cost for illegal immigrants to county taxpayers exceeds $1.6 billion dollars a year,” Antonovich said in a statement.

By all means, let's just make them automatic citizens.

Liberals will do absolutely anything to win power and control, and the pending immigration bill will serve as the tipping point toward an eventual epic and bloody civil war in the not-too-distant future. The U.S. will make Syria and Egypt look like a playground fight.

Most of us won't be here for it, but God help our children and grandchildren.
 
Food stamps are stimulus. With that kind of stimulus for just one county, the unemployment rate has to be zero percent there.
