What a shit meme. If I were going to freeload off a country for welfare, I sure as shit wouldn't pick the US. We have some awful social safety nets. SSI, Medicare, SNAP, Section 8 housing, are all shameful compared to most of the rest of the rich world.

Also the vast majority of illegal immigrants don't have access to any social welfare, so this meme is just blatantly false and racist, too.

Asylum and immigration applications take years, and on the immigration one you have to prove you won't need welfare and that you'll be a benefit to this country.

Like 2/3 of the people on welfare are white, rural folks. But it's the immigrants causing problems.

Lots of undeveloped land exists in Montana today. According the above meme, I would be in my rights to just set up shop on a bunch of empty undeveloped land and start setting up industry and civilization. If ownership of the Algonquian tribes didn't apply to early American ancestors, then surely the same rules apply to some one else in Montana that claims to have a deed in an office somewhere else in the state.

You could at the very least learn some fucking history, dude. Your ancestors didn't move to an undeveloped land. Your ancestors invaded a land that had been carefully cultivated for millennia and forced out the descendants of the people who made that land livable.

Like, whatever, ignorance is why you're a bigot in the first place. I just am constantly surprised by the utter lack of curiosity among conservatives that leads to dumbshit opinions like this.

Native Americans were almost wiped out...not saying those who now came illegally and on welfare is cool.
