Congress passed a bill allowing illegals the right to draw social security! That is just too much! There are too many seniors that worked all their life and can't survive on social security. It was'nt long ago we were told social security may not be around long enough To help the middle aged when they reach the older years and now... they will give it to people thAT ARE HERE ILLEGALLY! ridiculous! wHAT IS THIS WORLD COMING TO?

I know what you mean. Why are these criminals getting free money that we Americans worked hard for? Why do they get the free hand outs, and we have to suffer? I've suffered for 4 years waiting to immigrate legally, and I wasted alot of money to be on a student visa. Why do they get to go to school for free? We should kick them all out and put up a huge wall on the Mexican, and Canadian boarders. We should also make our airport, sea port, and land boarders more stricter on who can and can't pass through. This problem is obscene, and no one seems to have an answer, and is willing to work on one. I've been hearing about this problem in the news for over a year now, and yet nothing is done! Sad I tell you. SAD!!!

I don't know about the world, it sounds more like this is an American problem. Social security itself is a dumb system that I wish the government would either do away with, or change so that it actually benefits all generations. I'm a member of the generation who, if the projections are correct, probably won't see much, if any of the money I paid into Social Security. By the time I hit my grandmother's age, Social Security finances are supposed to be close to nil. If natural born and legal Generation Y American citizens have a very low chance of getting any Social Security benefits- why are we giving our benefits to people who aren't even legal citizens In my opinion, the bleeding hearts of some of congressman have finally drowned their brains in needless sympathy - thus the reason some of the decisions that are coming from congress seem to be getting, well, dumber.

This is a bill started by the brilliant man we call our President. I have enclosed the link where I found this information. It is from the Senior Citizens League. You can link to a petition to ask that this nonsense be stopped. I signed it. You should be sure to read the entire article and what Bush says they can claim as wages. This is absolutely a kick in the face to all , social security tax-paying American citizens! http://www.tscl.org/NewContent/102124.asp
