Can you imagine what all these ‘border-crossers’ are costing US taxpayers?

PEDRO'S MULTIPLE IDENTITIES RIDE THE US GRAVY TRAIN An illegal alien w/ wife and five children violates our borders. He gets a job mowing lawns for $5.00 or 6.00/hour. At that low wage, with six dependents, he pays no income tax, so each year, he files an Income Tax Return to get "EITC---earned income credit" of up to $3,200 scot-free. He qualifies for Section 8 housing and subsidized rent. He qualifies for food stamps and no deductible, no co-pay free health care. His children get free school breakfasts and lunches. The kids qualify for monthly SSI checks, faking ADD; the illegal and his wife get SSI if they fake being aged, blind or disabled; SSI qualifies them for Medicare. Plus illegals don't worry about pricey items like car insurance, life insurance, or homeowners insurance, and qualifies for relief from high energy bills.

Earned Income Tax Credit (meant for low-income US workers) is available to immigrants who obtain legal work status. But the law allows immigrants to claim EITC for up to three years prior to obtaining that status. Workers simply file a tax return for the years in which they were not legally eligible to work in the US. The most widespread abuse stems from the requirement that children live with the worker for more than six months of the year. IRS does little to verify the claim. Many immigrants claim non-existent children, or claim children who they’ve left behind with relatives. Those with two or more children and income below $32,121 could get as much as $4,008. It is estimated that illegals got $22 billion EITC refunds.

All of that is collected with one identity. Evidence shows "impoverished" illegals buy fake documents for several thousand dollars to establish multiple identities.....all cashing govt checks....all of them voting.

Illegal Jose Madrigal, the Washington state rapist, had some 30 identities.

Given the way the argument has gone so far, it won’t be long before someone declares that an American would have committed the crime if Pedro hadn’t.

Apparently we’re supposed to forget the old open borders arguments and act like they’re new ones.
