Breaking news! Spartanburg, SC
Christians have run out of “vulnerable” Americans in need of help!, by Ann Corcoran 5/25/16
I’m sorry, I
shouldn’t be so cynical, but honestly why are foreign-born poor people needier
and more deserving than America born disabled, impoverished and struggling in
the eyes of these ‘good Christians’? Is it somehow more charitable to care for
immigrants than their own neighbors? Are ‘refugees’ somehow cooler than our own
poor people (of all colors!)? Let me be clear—-if
they were using their own charitable dollars they can do whatever they want,
within the law of course. But, this is your money and mine and so it becomes
our business how they spend it.
Lee spoke to
the Spartanburg Interfaith Alliance this week. Beware ‘interfaith alliances’ as
they are behind establishing and promoting new sites almost everywhere they get
involved.
Here is the
latest from Spartanburg, a year-old resettlement site that brought national
attention to Rep. Trey Gowdy’s Congressional district. Even as Chairman of the
House Subcommittee on Immigration he was unable or unwilling to stop the flow
of refugees to Spartanburg (he probably didn’t want to rock the boat with Speaker
Ryan!)
Besides my
perennial question about why we can’t help our own citizens (and vets!) first,
I want to point out that a year ago Jason Lee said they would only bring a few
refugees to Spartanburg, but now he says 120 will be arriving in the
upcoming year. Will it be 200 the year after that?
You see, readers, that is how it works.
They get a foot in the door and then keep wedging it open wider and
wider!
From GoUpstate.com: The director of
a local aid agency that assists refugees is urging the faith community to
become involved in resettlement efforts in Spartanburg.
World Relief
Local Director Jason Lee spoke about the process of bringing refugees to the
area at a Spartanburg Interfaith Alliance meeting Tuesday morning at Temple
B’nai Israel.
He said last year World Relief helped resettle
49 refugees fleeing persecution. This year the organization has been approved
to resettle 120 refugees in Spartanburg, he said. World Relief
has 27 U.S. offices and is one of nine refugee resettlement organizations that
partner with the U.S. State Department.
“We’re compelled by our faith. … We’re called
to stand for the vulnerable,” Lee said. As
long as they are foreign born vulnerable! Continue
reading because it
appears that they don’t have enough volunteers to handle 120 new refugees.
By the way, the
refugee contractors, like this subcontractor of World Relief, need to have
enough volunteers logging their hours to show that they have ‘skin in the game’
so to speak. The feds expect the subcontractor to offer up something in
their phony public-private partnership. Originally the subcontractor was
supposed to be putting up cash, but as long as they have volunteers whose hours are measured
in cash then they get
the green light from the feds for the number of refugees they want. Each
refugee comes with a per head payment to the contractor. Of course the
payment is federal grant money (your money!) and thus there is never any
incentive to slow the flow or reduce the number as they build their little
fiefdoms.
