They cannot pay taxes for a paycheck when they have no working visa! They are hired for lower wages by people who know they are illegals. Pay income taxes, show me proof!

They pay taxes. They pay a larger percentage of their incomes in taxes than you do.

No, they don't. Most, who are on real payrolls, only pay social security, and many of those apply for the EIC and actually get money back (zero taxes paid and a check in the mail for a couple thousand of OUR dollars), and the rest are working under the table. They still send their kids to our schools, go to our emergency rooms for medical care, and collect as many social services are there are out there.

My neighbor is a teacher and she said that almost 30% of her classes are comprised of children who are here illegally. 30% just think of the drain on our education dollar!

They work hard. Harder than most of the rest of "us" do. All they want is a better life than what they could have had where they used to live.

Maybe if they worked so hard, things would look a whole lot different where they used to live. You have to ask yourself why the same people who created such a crappy system or allowed it to go on (remember --- Mexico is a democracy) are going to be different just because they moved en masse 1000 miles north. They keep their language, their culture, their politics ---- things will end up the same where ever they go.

Bump and Bravo!!! Standing O for you!

I have Mexican nieghbors, who doesn't? Anyway I don't think they are legal either. Have 4 kids under the age of 7, two kids are under 2! They get assistance. Recently they have a few agencies after them, they have been milking the US for everything they can, but they consider my family an intrusion on their way of life and shun us!

Tell me since these are such hardworking "taxpaying" people, where do we draw the line? Why not let everyone that wants a better life come here? Then we could look just like Mexico, or Pakistan or Somalia!

AS for paying taxes, where do you get the idea that they pay anywhere near what they use in benefits in taxes? You want it you pay for it, not me.

....The total net cost of the IRCA amnesty (the direct and indirect costs of services and benefits to the former illegal aliens, minus their tax contributions) after ten years comes to over $78 billion. (Measuring the Fallout: The Cost of the IRCA Amnesty After 10 Years, CIS, May 1997)....

Also many of the illegals are from the very large and fast growing Mexican criminal class. Sure there might be some pretty decent types ---- but nothing stops the worst violent gangs from Mexico from coming on over. Look at the murder rate in cities like Ciudad Juarez and Mexico City and then brag about the wonderful culture they're bringing over with them. If Mexicans were so inclined to pay taxes and make things great, you would have to explain why they didn't do it back in their own homeland.

My brother is probably the only landscaper in America that hires legals, white citizens. He has to hustle tremendously 12-15 hour days because they have a monopoly on the landscaping business and I am so sure they are running it by the book, license, etc. NOT!

34% of all Mexican immigrants are living on welfare. 42% of Hispanic births in the USA now are to unwed mothers. The drop out rate is almost 50%. At least a very large portion are not here to have a better life from working hard for it ----- more like from demanding the taxpayers provide them a nice welfare life.

Think about it Moe. Harry is hiring ILLEGALS, not because they do good work but because they are cheap! That's what is even more wrong with people like Harry, hiring them. Harry should be deported right along with them. If he's such a bleeding heart, he is seemingly UNAmerican!

You know what really gets my craw TX? I cannot afford to send my kids to school, when we work 110 hours a week between two of us just to live and 'rent'. But the parochial schools are filled with latino kids!

$7.4 billion is not even close when you consider the effects of illegal immigration in California since 1950.

As a consequence of this unregulated immigration approximately 40% of California school age children can trace their heritage to an illegal immigrant.

$30 Billion is closer to the truth.

See the money would then be spent more wisely, but unless we get borders like Israel we are doomed!

What should happen to Harry is a little thing called asset forfeiture. Ditto for every single loser that employs these criminals.
