And YES, here in Connecticut Illegals CAN VOTE.
All they need is a piece of mail showing their name and address, nothing else.
It is a vicious cycle, we have been living in it in Connecticut for years but the worst is coming. The Dems keep giving these people MORE and MORE FREE stuff and for that they get rewarded with staying in power.
The Dems know these people (Millennials, Illegals and other Dems) do NOT want to work and if they do they want $15 an hour for washing floors and they call it a career. I'm sorry BUT I was brought up such that you may start out washing floors but then you improved yourself to move up the business ladder.
Things that Connecticut has passed for the "System Suckers":
Free food
Free college if you get free food
Free heat if you get free food
Free rent if you get free food
Free transportation if you get free food
Free Medical if you get free food
Free Dental if you get free food
The best part is there are over 400,000 in Connecticut (out of 3.5 million) getting FREE FOOD which means they are automatically eligible for ALL the extra free stuff.
Now for some REAL numbers via the US Census Bureau.
Out of the 3.5 million people in Connecticut only 1.4 million work, so how can 40% of the population PAY FOR 100% of the population, answer, you can't.
Connecticut is $1.5 BILLION in the RED this year and projected to be OVER $2.5 BILLION in the RED next year. But they just keep giving away free stuff BUT the working people keep paying more and more.
Things that are coming to Connecticut to TAX the Working people more:
Highway Tolls
Higher/more Sales tax on items (i.e groceries, alcohol, cigs, etc)
Legalize Marijuana
The Dems BS claim is that the state workers pensions are to blame BUT when you look at the REAL $$ AMOUNTS for the pensions vs the FREE stuff its easily seen that the HUGE amount of $$$ for the Free Stuff is more:
54% of our state budget is for FREE stuff while ONLY 15% is for Pensions.

You want more $$ it's easy, do as most people do, GET A SECOND JOB.
My wife and I have ALWAYS had 2 jobs, sometimes 3 EACH.
OK, I'm done with my rant.
