They are estimating only 50,000 mexicans would collect SS the first year. Illegals in Texas could collect that the first year. You know as well as I know that we have at least 50,000 elderly here in Texas who would have no problem collecting it.
They're giving a purposely low estimate. Just takes common sense to figure out a giveaway like this will attract millions of claims. After all, article acknowledges some 5 million illegals currently here. How many millions of more have been here, or will come up with a way to claim they've been here? How can we verify their claim when we never had proof they were here in the first place? Illegal alien means no background check coming or going. We don't know who's been here and who hasn't.
Sounds like there's going to be a booming business in fradulent work backgrounds. More job opportunities for the criminal element anyway.
