WASHINGTON — Trump administration officials, under pressure from the White House to provide a rationale for reducing the number of refugees allowed into the United States next year, rejected a study by the Department of Health and Human Services that found that refugees brought in $63 billion more in government revenues over the past decade than they cost.

The internal study, which was completed in late July but never publicly released, found that refugees “contributed an estimated $269.1 billion in revenues to all levels of government” between 2005 and 2014 through the payment of federal, state and local taxes. “Overall, this report estimated that the net fiscal impact of refugees was positive over the 10-year period, at $63 billion.”

Of course he did. What an ignorant POS. Too lost in his own fantasyland to realize the good in the world and accept that his opinions are factually false. Such a disgrace that we have to call this rotten human the president of the U.S. Less than 3.5 years left.

How is anyone in his cabinet even still in office? This country is so ****ed. I think we need to financially collapse and have all of our infrastructure completely destroyed and unrecognizable so we can rebuild a better USA.

This sounds suspiciously similar to something the Third Reich has done and yet ...

It’s sad that people who bring in so much money are treated so poorly by the Trump administration. But in general it’s sad to see that refugees are treated badly, atleast now we know the truth.
