HHMMM....I think I am also paying for benefits I will likely never see. As I am 37 and have been paying for SS since I was 16, It is very likely these benefits will be gone when I am eligable. That does not mean I can stop paying my taxes, It does however, allow society here to take better care of its citizenry.I also will never(god willing) accept welfare, as I have no intention of "needing"it, and must pay for my own health insurance. Your argument is doomed to relative failure, if you intend to debate his eligability for poverty benefits.
We have more than enough impovershed individuals who require government assistance, Why would anyone in this society agree to pay for these benefits for someone legally from another country.
The same Goes for college assistance, I would be a little upset if my daughter was passed up for college aid, in favor of your boyfriend,I must work 50-60 hrs a week to support my family in this economy, and pay alot in taxes. I would expect some form of return on this in the future, and have no intention of paying for the education of an illegal immigrant.
