That just tells me about stuff I'd like to keep from my earnings ... bring on the Fair Tax!
That said, in most cases, I don't think they earn enough to pay Income Tax or FICA - in fact if they filed, they would probably get MORE money in the form of another welfare boondoggle: the "Earned Income Tax Credit."
Hitlery fools no one, not even her supporters.
Its still their money. They are still entitled to dispose of as they see fit.
And these days, too much of our money seems to go to the PRC to help their economy (and the PLA) to grow.
And what about the money we are collectively forced to pay when they commit crimes, need emerghency health care services, and educate their kids??????? Don't you think they should pay for that???
No, just the share, at least, that the rest of us have our picked for every day of every week.
The issue of immigration has nothing to do with the traditional political split between Liberal versus Conservative. Its more a split between those Americans who still have a lick of common sense versus those who are completely nuts. You have support for endless immigration coming from the exteme ends of both the Liberal AND Conservative elites -- with the rest of us Americans stuck in the middle paying for it. On the Left, you have the Bleeding Heart Liberals who's hearts bleed for all "minorities" (so long as they don't have to actually live amongst them). ANd on the right, you have the Rightwing Coporate Conservatives who see millions of new immigrants as nothing more than cattle for them to feed on: a source of endless cheap labor and millions of new people to buy their crappy products. But the overwhelming majority of Americans of ALL political persuasions want to severely reduce our insane level of Mass Immigration, and to put a complete stop to illegal immigration. And we are going to do that. ANd any politician who gets in our way is going to pay dearly for that. Are you listening, Senator McCain and Senator Chappequiddik?
Hill and dems want it both ways, as usual. They're against illegal immigration (wink, wink...come on in, vote dem.,and we'll get you lots of free goodies,cradle to grave stuff), but we blame employers who hire illegals. We certainly don't blame massive wave of illegal migrants/invaders looking for a better life. So when illegals get the vote, along with felons, they'll vote dem. And then they'll vote to secede and join Mexico or become Aztlan. At that point, GW and the republicans, sitting on their hands/dithering, will wonder what hit them.
