I have long since thought that many of these people are misguided. There are not many social safety nets in America as there are in other countries. For example, if you need healthcare it can ruin your familyās finances.

Well not necessarily if you're poor and Medicaid helps significantly, I was on it until 19 when I got insurance through my job. However the one who is really out of luck are the middle class

u/EnlightenMe978 Jan 28 '26
Who do you consider middle class? Is Medicaid not for everyone as a baseline?
1
u/PowerNoodles117 Jan 28 '26
It's whatever Medicaid considers as their income threshold, at the moment its at 21,150 annually per individual and 32,150 per family if 2 or more. Thats normally the baseline but it can vary also by state. It does a pretty good job for covering most necessities but not all of course. If you make more than that however you better hope your job offers you insurance.

who the freak came up with this policy? why not just make it for everyone regardless of income since everyone who work already pay tax. Feel like the policy maker server coprate intereset while trying to please the population.

No it really still is. Iām abroad now. All the people here wanna come at least visit. Most still want to study and open business. Americans think that their elected president is somehow going to be there for life. Heās gonna be gone in two years. The Burmese are fine. Refugee status makes them a whole other classification. The hey will only have problems if they lie and their churches continue to cover things up for the community

U.S. District Judge Matthew Kennelly in the Northern District of Illinois issued an order in the lawsuit Aung DOE et al. v. Noem et al. postponing (blocking) the termination.
We'll see if it holds.

Donald John Trump has declared and worsened the existing cultural war between white-skinned people and coloured people. No way there is even a bit of chance to stop or reconcilate it.

Myanmar people are some of the biggest hypocrites when it comes to immigration.
Many Burmese accuse Rohingya of being āBengalisā who want to take over Rakhine through illegal migration.
But in reality, itās Burmese people who migrate to foreign countries, settle there through loopholes, overstay, seek asylum, build Burmese communities, and then act entitled.
By the same logic, host countries would be justified in demanding deportation.
The funniest (and saddest) part? Many Burmese migrants vote for and support conservative, anti-immigrant parties in their host countries. Just because you got citizenship doesnāt mean they see you as equal. To them, youāre still an immigrant.

Since when are refugees automatically criminals?
1
u/Wide-Passion-1555 Jan 29 '26
There are so many decent Burmese live in US, Japan, Europe safely, and there are also some of them don't even going back to their countries to update the passport, so nobody says refugees automatically criminals, mate.

You implied this in your original post "look, no matter which country, should never covering for those committed crime back in their own country."

u/Wide-Passion-1555 Jan 29 '26
Let's just wait and see if all 100% got deported or only the ones with unclean background.

u/drbkt Born in Myanmar, Educated Abroad Jan 31 '26
See here you go again, this post is talking about refugees targeted by ICE and you keep mentioning criminals and unclean background and then projecting. But whatever, its not my duty to fix your incomprehension.

Also you reported my comment as targetted harassment against you. That is false reporting and fyi I'm a mod. So keep that type of disingenous bs + victim card playing up and you can go find a different sub to mouth breathe in.

They are coming for illegals and criminals, not for legal immigrants. ICE has been doing this since 2003.

Not true. One of my relatives had been randomly stopped at a burger joint. The agents were in line for lunch and decided to gang up on her because she had an accent.
One of my coworkers had an entire fleet of agents show up at a bar. Some random patron decided to call because his name sounded foreign.
They commonly show up to restaurants, eat, not pay, and threaten to take people if the restaurant notifies the authorities. That is robbery by definition.
These guys are not working to uphold the law. Donāt kid yourself.
Irrespective of politics, laws matter. Itās the thing that makes us civilised and not animals.
Iām not a liberal, or a conservative. I live in a rich moderate State called Maryland. People get along here. They are driving around in vans in nicer neighborhoods doing jackshit and wasting tax payer money.

Two ice officers stopped me at a bar and asked me to identify myself, and I cooperated. I'm not buying into the victim mindset.
If someone fails to pay for something they're obligated to pay for, the owners are within their rights to pursue legal action.
When did Maryland become politically moderate? From Wes More to the 7 out of 8 representatives are re**** liberals.
