I suppose most immigrants to USA are economic migrants.
Usually, but some are escaping political unrest / seeking asylum.
The people getting paid by the government, are the people who voted for that government.
You seem to have a problem with that. And when you say paid by the government, you make it sound like a gift or charity. Government funds (with a few minor exceptions) are dollars given to the government for safekeeping, and it's appropriate to take more dollars out than one put in for two reasons. My first payments to the government were in 1984 dollars, which were spent by the government in 1984 when they bought more than 2024 dollars, and which could not be invested or earn interest
A person with a real conscience would refuse those payments.
Disagree. There's no reason for me to give those dollars to the United States.
you indicated you hate the U.S
No, I didn't. I "hated" living there, but I explicitly stated that I mean it no harm and wish it well. I told you that I felt alienated living there, not fully an American according to the Pledge and the money and a former president. I don't love America anymore, but I also don't hate it. America was good to me in the first half of my life, and I'm grateful to have been born there when I was.
But that's all changed. The people have been severely dumbed down by conservative indoctrination media. Contention is in the air and palpable. So is insecurity. Will there still be a democracy with fair elections there by the decade's end? Extreme weather is headlines much of the time and threatens large numbers of people per event. Prices are artificially high. Gun violence is epidemic. Racism is rampant. Tantrumming has become a national pastime. Theocracy is the latest rage. The Supreme Court is rogue and will be for decades. Multiple anti-democratic MAGA Republicans in government are cooperating with Putin.
That's not a country I can love or respect any more, nor is it one I want to live in, especially when I can find happier people, better weather, and better prices a few hundred miles to the south, which by itself makes Mexico more appealing than America for a retiree even without all of those problems I mentioned in the States.
I liken America to a formerly good and loving mother who has gone demented and is angry and hateful now (like Trump). We love her for what she was and what she did for us once but find her rather unpleasant to be around now.
America is degenerating because of Progressive policies enacted by the politicians
I've already disagreed with that. That is due mostly to the repealing the Fairness Doctrine and the incessant indoctrination of an increasingly susceptible electorate who are helping their enemies harm them by electing Republicans.
There is a reason that you call yourself Catholic when going for Mexican medical treatment. Unlike Progressive leaders such as Biden and Pelosi, who have their own demons, Mexican Catholics are conservative by nature.
The reason is because too many Christians are atheophobic bigots, although I think that that is more the case with American evangelical Protestants than Mexican Catholics. Religion hasn't been weaponized here. It is still harmful, but only to the adherents, who it helps keep poor, superstitious, uneducated, and the girls pregnant. It also keeps pets terrified with its frequent holidays and bottle rocket celebrations.
In America, Christianity is damaging not just its adherents, but also their non-Christian neighbors.
