This is a touchy subject and I was debating whether even to respond at first. I agree that having multiple kids and no skills are not the ways of this country. However, they are not from this country. They were accepted to come here to escape the dangers they were facing in their country. This takes a lot of courage. It seems as if the man is trying to fend for himself and support his family.
I feel that they were set up when they were brought here. Why would you put a family like this in a city where the cost of living is outrageous? Granted the neighbors may be accepting and supportive, but as the article said, they can't help pay the bills. I feel sorry for them in the fact that they were basically placed in a situation where faliure was inevitable.
As for government aid, I think that it is great as a crutch, but not as a long-term situation. Many natural American citizens milk the system for all it is worth and still moan and complain. They are not trying to get jobs or move to a place where they could be more successful. So, we shouldn't be blaming the aliens for doing this either. But generally what I see, is that aliens try harder because they came here for a better life.
I'm not saying that this family should be handed everything on a silver platter, but if we brought them over here, we need to get them situated and then cut them lose.
