We hear about the explosion of food stamps or the numbers of people on government assistance.
Before I get a bunch of insulting email that I don't care about poor people, let me tell you a couple of things:
Our family landed in the US without a penny. Yes, I mean zero - like, nothing.
Upon landing in the US, our family was assisted by a church, individuals and lots of smiling faces who opened doors unconditionally. We never expected the US government to give us anything. Americans gave us freedom and that's what my parents were looking for.
