America loves kids, but Uncle Sam has a favorite: children of refugees.
Among recipients of food stamps, welfare cash and Social Security payments, refugee children receive more in taxpayer-funded aid than children of citizens, according to a new report on federal spending from the pro-immigration Migration Policy Institute.

The reason? The report said that aid is typically higher to refugees because they arrive poor, a situation likely to hit hard when an estimated 20,000 Syrian refugees arrive in the U.S. before the end of the year.
Reason #2 (wild guess): The many for-profit refugee resettlement contractors help 'process' refugees to get them onto the taxpayer dole as soon as possible, before the contractors skip away singing and counting their stacks of money--and get ready to send more invaders to 'seed' yet another 'welcoming' (in-the-dark, naively charitable and ripe for the plucking) American community.
