He pulled out a receipt showing the earnings he was able to send home one week: $1,000 for the month, which his parents have put into a savings account. Jose said they haven't used any of his savings, though he's told them they can. Jose keeps $400, which mostly goes for room and board at the farmworker center.All that untaxed money going south of the border, while citizens/taxpayers of this country pay for social services, health care, etc. for non-taxpaying illegals. Anywhere in the Southwestern U.S., just walk into the county hospital, any government welfare office, any free services office at all, for that matter, and bring your English/Spanish dictionary with you. And our government does nothing about our non-existant borders, although you might have thought 9/ll would make them more vigilent. But that would also stop the millions of illegals that provide cheap labor for businesses.

On the other hand, through the use of fake Social Security cards, there are many, many tens of millions of dollars being deducted and sent to Social Security that will never be returned to the ones who paid in, that money then becoming available for all the white widows who will have exhausted within a few years of retirement everything they and their husbands put in back in the days of minuscule FICA taxes.
