Immigrants who meet the eligibility thresholds of age for the entitlement programs or poverty for the means-tested welfare programs generally have lower use rates and consume a lower dollar value relative to native-born Americans.3 The per capita cost of providing welfare to immigrants is substantially less than the per capita cost of providing welfare to native-born Americans.From the right wing Cato institute:

This is about a Supreme Court justice, not about whether he should be in jail.
Why didn't Christine Ford report them to the Senate Judiciary Committee then? He waited three years before his appointment to the appellate court.
Why didn't the FBI investigation then report anything to do with Christine Ford? I see zero evidence from then as to any allegations wrt impropriety.

Looks like Ben wont be telling us where Ford advocated smearing Gorsuch with false accusations, he's too busy smearing Ford with false accusations.
Lobbyists are not researchers.
and was 'farmed' out for a few years to do research for a drug company.
She told her husband Kavanaugh's name years ago.
In short we have no evidence for anything between Christine and Kavanaugh prior to 2018 with the filing in June. That raises my eyebrows and should raise yours.
I'd love to hear what incentive she had to put her family at risk.
NO! I already told you, I've been to many parties I cant remember. If I was under oath and asked if I remember a party on July 1st 1982 I'd say no.
That doesn't mean I wasn't at a party on that day.
I dont care if he drank alcohol
The delay is irrelevantScouse Git (2) La Fayette Adam Smith Solomwi and Loinburger will not be forgotten.

Bull****. Can and are. Many industries do pay for research that gives them the outcomes that they want. We see it with the tobacco industry and we see it with the abortion industry. Christine's research supports the production of the drug because then they go and say that it has a legitimate use, should be covered by insurance, so on and so forth.
A drug company that just so happens to produce the most common drug used in abortion pills. And you'd have me believe that Christine doesn't have a vested interest in Kavanaugh's nomination?
Nobody says 'years ago'. Nor does anyone say which year, which is significant. 2017? 2018? When? We don't know.

Russell Ford, her husband, also told The Washington Post that his wife detailed the alleged assault during a couple’s therapy session in 2012. During therapy, he said his wife talked about a time when she was trapped in a room with two drunken boys, and one of them had pinned her to a bed, molested her and tried to prevent her from screaming.
He said he remembered his wife specifically using Kavanaugh’s name. She said during the session, Russell Ford recalled, she was scared he would one day be nominated to the Supreme Court.
How was her family put at risk? She made a cool million off like a couple months of work. Nice work if you can get it. It's funny how ideology blinds you Berz. You want corruption? There's corruption with a capital C.
Would you believe this was sufficient to convict someone of sexual assault at this particular party? Or would your lack of testimony simply add to the pile of insufficient evidence.
Nor does it mean that there was a party, let alone one Christine attended with Kavanaugh.
Bull****. You've been smearing Kavanaugh all along for drinking alcohol. Apparently being a libertarian means being prohibitionist. Who knew?
The delay is very significant. They followed the Bork playbook to the letter. You would think after Bork, and after Thomas that it would be obvious what the Senate Democrats are doing here. How many times does it have to happen before you see the playbook for what it is?
