I am curious as to how non-citizens get the dole, and why, once they get citizenship they would stop receiving it.

Illegals are making more from the nanny state than are some retired US citizens.

More illegals are petitioning for citizenship than ever before instead of just sitting back and living off the dole.
Get an imagination and come up with another meme.
In another thread, I said to try "undocumented workers".
Clearly, you didn't like that one, so come up with one yourself that actually works. Something better than "illegal".

Originally posted by whodeyExcept the article you linked says no such thing. Instead it says that the US spends money on 'unaccompanied children' many of which are legal. Note that the children themselves do not receive all the money mentioned. The US also spends an awful lot of money on prisoners, but prisoners don't get rich as a result. Don't confuse spending money with benefits.

Originally posted by whodeyLife as an illegal in the US is really amazing. That's why so many American citizens are burning their passports in order to live as a fake undocumented alien.

While many immigrants who are lawfully present in the United States are eligible for public benefits, there are restrictions based on citizenship and immigration status that limit their access to several federal means-tested programs.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
States can cover immigrants with substitute SNAP, Medicaid, and TANF benefits using their own funding and since 2009, states have the option of covering lawfully present children and pregnant women in Medicaid and/or CHIP.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Under CHIPRA, states can receive federal funding to provide Medicaid and/or CHIP to lawfully residing children up to age 21
You obviously didn't read the link; it says nothing to support your claim.
