And who cares, right? Socialism! We'll all just chip in and allow the world to move to America! We'll give away everything, watch our country turn into a huge 3rd world shithole on steroids... The liberal utopia of "coexist" simply does not exist, even though we CAN have a great country of coexisting folks - but there HAS to be rules/laws and enforcement. And yes, that crap does directly lead to this kind of money being spent AND it will only grow and the demands grow along with it.

Welfare for Refugees Cost Americans $123 Billion in 10 Years

Americans spent almost $100 billion to support 606,000 poor refugees in the 10 years up to 2014, according to a State Department report.

The $96.6 billion cost rises to $126 billion when officials count the extra cost of paying for the refugees’ spouses and children, including U.S.-born children.

The $126 billion bill is just for programs managed by the Department of Health and Human Services. It excludes additional taxpayers’ spending via state programs, as well as federal spending on Social Security, education, and housing programs, plus tax credits, says the State Department’s annual report to Congress on the refugee program.

The one-agency, $126-billion firehose of cash, however, was a huge taxpayer subsidy to the refugee groups which delivered the refugee to cities and towns. It is also a huge subsidy to the low-wage employers who hired the refugees in place of higher-wage Americans, and to the grocery stores and apartments who sold food and rented apartments to the new arrivals.
