It's about time that Maine tightens up the welfare system that draws the lowlifes up here in the 1st place.
Oh I'm well aware we have our own lowlifes :0)
So they live off the system and supplement their incomes selling dope.
Probably making 2-3 times the money I bust my butt for here in Taxland.

I'm trying to figure out how I'm going to keep the furnace going, keep my vehicles fueled & put food on the table.

Send their sorry a$$'s back to where they came from.
See what happens when they sell dope in their country.
It will NOT be a slap on the wrist for sure.report abuse

Deport the illegal. After his short sentence for drugs.

He should have operated out of Gardiner where you not only enjoy great customers but, the local police will actually support you business.report abuse
