Federal Government Spending Nearly $20,000 To SETTLE EVERY SINGLE REFUGEE

The federal government is spending almost $20,000 on the settlement of every refugee coming into the United States.

Mind you, this is before they are given access to food stamps, Medicaid, and a host of other welfare services.

The Washington Examiner reports:

Feds spend nearly $20,000 to settle every refugee

Federal taxpayers are on the hook for nearly $20,000 just to settle each refugee and asylum seeker, who are then immediately eligible for cash welfare, food stamps, housing and medical aid, according to a new report on the “refugee industry.”

The report provided federal budget figures showing that the government spends $19,884 on each refugee the U.S. takes in.

And that number is set to jump if President Obama gets his way and brings in an additional 10,000 Syrian refugees in this year.

The report from the Negative Population Growth Inc. said that the U.S. is currently accepting about 95,000 refugees and asylees. That is in addition to the over 500,000 legal and illegal immigrants coming to the U.S.

It focused on the industry created to accept the $1.8 billion in federal support to help refugees settle and sign up for further cash awards from Uncle Sam. The refugee agencies get a small portion, or about $1,875 per refugee they help. The rest goes to the United Nations, which helps to determine eligible refugees, and state agencies.

The State Department spends about $1.28 billion, and Health and Human Services another $609 million.

Obama and other Democrats are determined to bankrupt America while changing the electorate by creating new Democrats.
We need a serious change in leadership. Fast.
