And, hey, guess what? A huge percentage of illegals are paid cash under the table. No taxes paid on that. And, hey, guess what? A huge percentage of illegal aliens are young males far from home with no family members. Guess what they end up doing? Getting into trouble. And, hey, guess what? Large numbers of illegal aliens resulted in heavy poaching of fish and game, the fouling of swimming ponds formerly used by the general public and the destruction of public parks/facilities by misuse. And, hey, guess what? A huge percentage of the DUIs I arrested were illegal aliens
And, hey, guess what? How do I know this? Because I patrolled an area of my state for several years that has a high percentage of illegal aliens working the orchards.
I don't know about the "huge percentage" claim, but, yes there are illegal immigrants who are paid under the table with no taxes withdrawn. But, this is also done by legal immigrants and American citizens, so what's your point? If you are complaining about this practice then you need to advocate for this being stopped regardless of whom is taking advantage of this.
You seem to be of the opinion that I support illegal immigration and the criminal activities of the same. Hey, guess what?, my father worked for the department of corrections for 34 years in the state of California, and I know probably as well as you do the problems inherent with illegal immigration. And, hey, guess what? I'm against illegal immigrations. So, again I ask, what is your point?
First off you don’t know squat just because your father was a guard.
Secondly, my point about under the table payments to illegals was a refutation of your comment about them being paid with payroll checks.
This thread is about illegal aliens, and what they do, not what everyone else on the planet does. Whether I advocate for other folks not getting paid under the table is irrelevant to THIS discussion.
Your comments make you appear to be an apologist for illegal aliens.
You’re entitled to an opinion. Enjoy.
