According to a recent study by the Center for Immigration Studies, 62% of households headed by a illegal immigrant participated in at least one welfare program in 2012, compared to 49% of legal immigrant-headed households and 30% of native-headed households. Stefan Molyneux speaks with Dr. Steven Camarota to clarify what this data means and to debunk the common myths and non-arguments concerning illegal and legal immigrant welfare usage in the United States. Dr. Steven Camarota serves as the Director of Research for the Center for Immigration Studies (CIS), a Washington, DC based research institute that examines the consequences of legal and illegal immigration on the United States. In recent years Dr. Camarota has testified before Congress more than any other non-government expert on the economic and fiscal impact of immigration. In addition, he was the lead researcher on a contract with the Census Bureau examining the quality of immigrant data in the American Community Survey.Find more of Dr. Camarota's work online at:http://cis.org/blog/17http://www.nationalreview.com/author/steven-camarota-0Sourceshttp://cis.org/Welfare-Use-Immigrant-Native-Householdshttp://cis.org/Welfare-Use-Legal-Illegal-Immigrant-Householdshttp://cis.org/sites/cis.org/files/camarota-welfare-final.pdfFreedomain Radio is 100% funded by viewers like you.
