Governor Carey wanted to give them community based mental health care.

Didnâ??t work.
Well, chisme's arguement is about homless immigrants. In NYC, almost all homeless people are african america or white, not immigrants.

Chisme, how pathetic are you and your family if you're being beaten out for jobs by some turban wearing immigrant who can't speak a word of English.
I understand where you are coming from, people should not be given something free in order to make up for something else.
But how are these illegals in your country collecting benefits? Aren't they illegal? Maybe they aren't because your government gave them the right to come there and you should have to respect that.
I am totally against illegal immigration, but not against people who wanna go somewhere for a better life the right and legal way. That's how America came to be.
