President Donald Trump proposed Wednesday night reforming the welfare system by putting into law a statute that has been the law of the land since 1996.
"I believe the time has come for new immigration rules which say those seeking admission into our country must be able to support themselves financially and should not use welfare for a period of at least five years," Trump said to raucous applause from the roughly 6,000 supporters who flocked to his Iowa rally.
He added that he wanted to pass legislation to that effect "very soon."

With a few exceptions, new immigrants already cannot access welfare programs during their first five years in the US, per a 1996 welfare reform law signed by President Bill Clinton.
Pressed repeatedly by CNN, a senior administration official did not dispute that the proposal is already in effect.
The official said that Trump is aiming for a "total rewrite of our immigration system" that would produce a "merit-based system for entry."
The official pointed to Trump's comment Wednesday night that "those seeking admission into our country must be able to support themselves financially," but declined to offer additional details about that proposal.
"There are many welfare benefits for which immigrants would no longer be eligible," the senior administration official said.
Several categories of legal immigrants are exempt from the five-year ban on accessing government welfare programs, including children, refugees and veterans of the US military.

But neither Trump nor the senior administration official who discussed the proposals with CNN said Trump was calling for legislation to scrap those exemptions to the 1996 law, which was negotiated in large part by then-House Speaker Newt Gingrich, a Republican, and Clinton, a Democrat.
Reached for comment, a White House spokesman would only say that Trump addressed his vision for a merit-based immigration system in his joint address to Congress and in his 2018 budget proposal, though neither address changes to the 5-year welfare ban.
The spokesman said Trump wants a "merit-based system for entry that requires self sufficiency."
"Not new," the spokesman said.

Fucking winning. Suck it globalists. Immigration how it should be done.
 
Meanwhile in Australia you pay tax your whole life and want to live overseas as the pension doesn't stretch.....

Yet our refugees haven't ever contributed and get that sweet cash to sit at home.
"The two-year waiting period for Centrelink eligibility that applies to other newly arrived permanent residents is waived for refugees and humanitarian entrants, in recognition of the fact that (unlike other migrants) they often arrive in Australia with few or no financial resources."
This interprets as unemployable

MIDDLE Eastern migrants are piling on to the dole queue — with a 33 per cent jobless rate during their first five years in Australia.
And this probably doesn't count the casual or part-time workers that still get welfare payments.

"This compares to 3.6 per cent for southeast Asian migrants, and 1.9 per cent for those from southern and eastern Europe."

"Only one in 20 newly-resettled refugees finds a job after six months, a report has found."

"For about 90 per cent of those studied, their main source of income was welfare payments.

Just 6 per cent had managed to find a job — mainly those able to speak English."

MORE than 60 per cent of refugees to Australia have failed to get a job after five years
, according to a damning Federal Government report into the humanitarian settlement program.

And 83 per cent of those households now rely on welfare payments for income.

The greatest unemployment rate was recorded among new arrivals from Iraq and Afghanistan, with less than one in 10 finding full-time work and 93.7 per cent of households receiving Centrelink payments

This negative reaction to Muslims is not only or largely due to terrorism. It is mostly due to a failure to integrate into Australian society and economy. The problem was described by journalist Greg Sheridan in 2011, well before home-grown Islamic terrorism took its first victims.[xx] Until then Sheridan had been a leading exponent of multiculturalism and the diverse immigration that feeds it. Sheridan reported many examples of anti-social behavior by Muslim Australians in his neighbourhood near the Lakemba Mosque, in Sydney. These included racially-motivated attacks against Anglo Australians. He interviewed a senior police officer who reported that Arabs in the Lakemba area of Sydney presented a severe policing problem, with high rates of violent crime.

"Australia is not immune from the costs of diversity. Repeated studies by Australian academics find that ethnic diversity undermines social capital."
The result is that refugees and their descendants are more prone to indigence and crime, especially those from Africa and the Middle East
. One only need follow the news to document the harm done. Recently Sudanese and Pacific Islander[xiv] youth rioted in Melbourne (Saturday 12 March 2016), overwhelming police. There were similar riots in Melbourne by African youth on New Year in 2014, when Salvation Army staff described the situation as resembling a “war zone”. Most of the Africans originate from refugees taken in from Sudan and other trouble spots in Africa. Sudan is a largely Muslim society. Further back, another problem group has been Lebanese Muslims whose parents were accepted as refugees by the Fraser government in the 1980s. The result has been chronic unemployment and criminality, including the tribal pack rapes of Anglo girls.[xv]

Problems with integrating Sudanese were admitted by Kevin Andrews, the Immigration Minister in the Howard Government, in 2007. The Sudanese intake was reduced before all applications from Africa were suspended for a year. This was in response to problems with Somali refugees, also Muslims. At the time Andrews explained that “some groups don’t seem to be settling and adjusting into the Australian way of life as quickly as we would hope”.
(no shit Sherlock)
That has proven to be an understatement. These examples of poor integration by African and Arab refugees continue to scar Australian communities. They were grievous errors of judgment by governments on both sides of politics.


I could go in forever, the cost of taking unskilled labour (except skills to be predisposed to violence, crime and extremism perhaps)
from an incompatible culture with little language skills.

A recipe for disaster

Disaster indeed. Very well said.
 
What a bizarre thread. So Trump does nothing except refer to a Clinton-era standing law, and that is why we're winning and the globalists and libruls should suck it?

This country is losing its grip more each day.

Very true but two wrongs don't make a right and even a 8 inch dick looks small compared to 16.
Perspective needs to be clear of prejudice to be accurate.
 
Trump is so lazy he can't even google this shit
 
He is talking about modifications to the law we have in place now. He knows what we have in place now. He isn't the sharpest tool in the shed but he does get some things right.
 
This country is losing its grip more each day.

The country is doing just fine. The only people losing their grip are the ones constantly acting like things are getting worse and the country is in danger. At least 90% of my FB friends have given up on their daily "bitch about what Trump did today" post.
