I believe another way to cut costs in the budget without truly hurting the wrong people is to go after the right people. Illegal immigrants are a massive drain on many institutions in this country. Healthcare, education, our courts and prisons, housing, jobs and many more that probably could be named all suffer due to the lack of enforcement of our immigration laws by our politicians. Allowing lawbreakers access to what law-abiding citizens pay into with their hard-earned money is simply just wrong. When you allow this to happen, it's no wonder why this country is going bankrupt. You cannot continue to take out more than what you put in. Before you know it, you are basically robbing Peter to pay Paul and sooner or later, the well will run dry.
One way to work towards solving this problem is stop offering incentives for people to enter the country illegally. Anyone who is not a legal citizen of this country should not be allowed ANY benefits whatsoever: no free money, no free or subsidized housing or healthcare, no free education, no Medicare or Social Security. NOTHING AT ALL. There is something wrong with this picture when people who don't basically pay into the system get to receive benefits from this same system.
Another thing, no more anchor babies. If you come here illegally, it's not our fault you have a child so don't expect us to pay for it in any way. No free benefits at all. Sorry. It may sound hateful but there is nothing hateful about wanting to be able to support all the poor people and children that we already have in our country who by the way are legal Americans. When illegals drain the limited resources that we have in place, soon those citizens who legitimately need the help can not receive it. I know too many people who need the help yet can't receive anything. Of course, i don't only blame this on illegals, because I know that there are many Americans who abuse these systems in place to help those in need. Root out fraud, corruption and waste and that will also go a long way into helping us save possibly billions of dollars alone per year.
