The price of Illegal aliens in the US.

[Jaimecbr900]

In most cases illegals are not paid over the table which is what you are implying. Most illegals are paid under the table. Most get paid in cash and then come tax time the companies write it off as an expense which is why I don't see this new law working.

As far as the U.S. resulting in a net profit. I don't see how when most aren;t actually paying into anything.

I agree with you this defintely a problem we created for ourselves and the only way to solve it is to get tougher with the laws already on the books

Listen, you are being very narrow minded. I will attribute that to the fact that you're young and haven't seen or done quite as much yet. But you are absolutely wrong in your assumptions.

How many companies have you run? How many employees have you hired? How many times have you even issued a W2? So please, don't sit on your misinformed soap box and try to pass judgement on something you have no concrete proof about.

The reality is that there indeed quite a few illegals that get paid a regular check just like or me. They get deductions taken out too. Problem comes in when they DON'T file tax returns because their SS # is actually bogus. That is a problem. The real problem comes in from those that do get paid in cash which compounds the problem even further. What percentage is which? It's impossible for ANYONE to say since census nor IRS know crap since they're "counting" ghosts and collecting taxes from noone. All the figures are merely guesses. How can you say how many are here, if they won't be counted? How can you say just how much they contribute if they don't pay taxes? It's a double sided coin. You can certainly add up what benefits are being used up, but that's one side of the equation. Irritating, but only one side.

*edit* I hit the send button too early.

You need to look around a little closer. There are just as many lily white and carbon black losers out there sucking every last red cent out of our economy and not replacing it just like you claim illegals do. What is the difference? You can't choose where you're born or whom you're born to. There are just as many worthless AMERICAN BORN AND BRED leeches if not more than "illegals". A leech is a leech is a leech. What makes a citizen any more deserving of milking our politically correct system than anyone else? Wrong is wrong, right? Why not just try and keep EVERYONE from treating us like suckers? Because we have an escape goat wearing a sombrero and speaking a different language that is much easier to point the finger at to keep the spotlight off the lily white trash or the carbon black thief stealing the exact same things right out from underneath our nose right now.

Pick up a newspaper or watch TV on any given day. How many times do you see white people fleecing the system out of millions thru scams? How many times do you see a Black girl with 6 kids who has enough money to have a cell phone but refuses to get a job or name the father of her children so she won't lose her benefits? How often do you see Oriental people driving $100k cars, living in $500k houses, yet since their business is a strictly cash intake only make $20k on paper? I can do this all day. The point is that all of you that are so intent on blaming only one part of our society for taking advantage of the system really need to take a closer look around. The "illegals" aren't the only ones suckling from that teet. Recognize that FIRST and want to fix that FIRST, and then you will start making some headway towards a real solutions.
