The GOP has been playing the right for fools for decades now. They've been working on those lines that convince people who think only of their own hate for others they never met and don't know for so long now that they have it down to a science. In truth the number of people who cheat those systems, just like the number of "illegal" immigrants who commit major crimes is actually shockingly low, but these people think there are whole crime rings formed around this stuff.
