No, they don't. Assuming they are not paid in cash, an illegal family of
four would have to make more than $25,000.00 per year before they paid the first dime in income taxes. Before that, they would be entitled to an earned income tax CREDIT, which other taxpayer pay to them for working. Meanwhile, we are paying $20,000 per year to educate their two children, and possibly another $5,000 to deliver their next one. If they are injured on the job, we are paying disability benefits. If they require medical treatment, we are paying that as well. Sales taxes, you say? Direct transfers back to Mexico is the second largest source of money for the Mexican economy, right after oil, and before tourism. So tell me, at 5% of what's left over, how much of their earnings is going to our economy? The popularity of illegal aliens is blindingly simple: if I am an employer, and I have to pay a citizen $12 per hour to do a job, and I can get an illegal to do the same thing for $9, and there are no adverse consequences to picking the illegal, which one will I choose? Our immigration disaster is the result of a very ugly confluence of liberal democratic politics with right wing immoral business interests. It is certainly a more profound threat to our nation than terrorism. Just for the record you do realize that MANY illegals pay taxes in the US don't you. I don't think anyone would say they don't work hard. If they didn't they wouldn't be in such demand. |
