Illegal immigrants getting a free ride

If you illegally cross the North Korean border you are imprisoned for 12 years of hard labor or shot and killed. If you illegally cross the Iranian border you are detained indefinitely or shot and killed. If you illegally cross the Turkish border you will spend the rest of your life in prison or be shot and killed. If you illegally cross the Afghan border, you get shot and killed. No options.

If you illegally cross the U.S. border you will get a driver’s license, a Social Security card, welfare, food stamps, free health care, no income tax and the unearned freedom to complain that it’s not enough for you to live on (while not having to worry about getting shot and killed).

And to all of the honest hardworking citizens of this country, remember, your contributions to this charity program are due April 15.
