Legal Immigrants Forced to Pay for Obama’s Illegal Amnesty
 A favorite word of sanctimonious moonbats is “fairness,” so it isn’t surprising that Obama has applied the liberal concept of fairness to his unconstitutional amnesty decree:As the debate rages on Capitol Hill about how to defund President Obama’s executive action that gives legal status to 5 million illegal immigrants, it’s important to take a look at where the funding for his new amnesty program is coming from. The funding for Obama’s executive action is coming through the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services, a fee, not tax based agency under the jurisdiction of Homeland Security. Because the USCIS is a fee based agency, many have argued Congress cannot defund it. Who pays this fee? Law-abiding immigrants of the type who are likely to contribute to American society instead of sponging off welfare. On average legal immigrants wait ten years to fully obtain citizenship (and only after they’ve had a green card for five years) and they must pay thousands of dollars to USCIS in the process. Again, that money is now being used to give millions of illegal immigrants a free, expedited pass to legal status. Adding insult to injury, millions of green cards for illegals means longer wait times for legal immigrants. In a kakistocracy, authorities do not encourage playing by the rules.
