I’m generally not for giving things away because it tends to devalue the good or service but how about this?
How about we package all the tax-payer-paid-for goodies we’re giving to illegals in the country and give them to active-duty military and veterans? They’re not getting anything for “free.” They dutifully served the country in a dangerous job, and they got paid almost nothing for it. Also, we’re in the middle of a military recruiting crisis. We could enhance their salaries and their educational benefits packages. We could get them better healthcare, and we could get them housing worthy of their sacrifice.
This is a NO-BRAINER, which is why it’ll never happen. Because most people in government have no brains.

Thy kingdom come;
Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread;
and forgive us our trespasses
as we forgive those who trespass against us;
and lead us not into temptation,
but deliver us from evil.
Amen.
"Lord Jesus, you have captured our hearts and opened to us the treasures of heaven. May you always be my treasure and delight and may nothing else keep me from giving you my all."

What will there be for us?” "Jesus said to them, “Amen, I say to you that you who have followed me, in the new age, when the Son of Man is seated on his throne of glory, will yourselves sit on twelve thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel. "And everyone who has given up houses or brothers or sisters or father or mother or children or lands for the ...
