The United States is for things that the States cannot do individually, like defense, control interstate commerce and interact with other foreign countries.  Domestic issues are supposed to be left to the States.


With regard to a migrant shift of poor people, I have two answers.  One is the matter can be handled through legislation and regulation.  Just like moving to another State to get a cheap price on University tuition, you must be a resident for one year first.  An aggressive "get to work" program (such as applied to welfare during the Clinton administration) is one of the disincentives that can be used to make people jump through some hoops to use your generous social benefits.


The second answers is poor people don't move.  I watch on TV when poor people are huddled around sewage manholes to stay warm in New York City. I think, "Why don't these people move south to Florida or So.California to get out of the cold weather?"  Poor people aren't necessarily logical.




Hey, when your credit card debt is 7 times your annual income, even 2% interest is going to take a big bite out of your budget.  Having a credit card bill that large is ridiculous.  Plus, the government doesn't invest its money anywhere.  It continues to spend like a drunken sailor; charging more money on that bloated credit card.  In other words, when your nose is 7 times the size of your face, the situation calls for plastic surgery.  You are certainly not trying to spite spite your face, you are trying to make your face look better.
