re: Illegal Aliens Send out 25-28 billion every year in remittances

Illegal or not, tax remittances at least at the highest tax bracket- add 10% or more for illegals
If they can’t make money here, they will go home. If they want the USA to be their home, then, hopefully, they will work it out through the correct channels
But shame on our officials for not passing legislation that 90% of the people agree with.
Most Americans support legal immigration, and work visas.
Make the damn laws, stop the BS executive order BS. Congress, do you damn job!

No way to know how accurate your source is. FAIR was founded by a guy who promotes eugenics. The organization is strongly anti- immigration. I’m sorry you were disturbed by blacks and Hispanics at Western Union… I hope you didn’t lose too much sleep…

25-28 billion just leaving our economy every year.

It has already been mentioned that many enjoy assistance programs, live like a clown car and aren't paid the usual way.
Legal or not... remittances need to be taxed.

Tax them at 100% with a 90% credit for a valid visa.
Illegal immigration = 0
Scum bags keep actual solutions DOA.

Right. But the scenario that the OP laid out is pretty stupid
If you see a black dude at a Western Union do you think that they're automatically illegal?

Need to tax them 50% minimum. Sick of the no speaka leeches

That's thinking outside of the box... I like it!

Simple,
Force all money transfer portal companies to require whether or not someone is a “citizen”, if they are not, charge a 30% transfer fee.

It's equally as dumb if they're Hispanic since there are a shite ton of American citizens of Hispanic ancestry
He's basically saying that only illegals could possibly use these services

I do not care how the remittances are leaving the country. I care that illegals are not contributing to society. If they want to stay then apply for a work visa with all of the caveats associated with it. And pay taxes. It is that simple.

I think of it like a trade deficit, except they live here and commit crimes to boot and take away work from lower skilled workers.
And this doesn’t count the amount of services stolen from Americans on the form of schools, medical, welfare, etc.

Every Hispanic or Latino grocery store has a Western Union in it. That money is going home to feed his ole lady and kids in Honduras Mexico. Guatemala, etc.

If they're sending money to their families at home you should at least be thankful they didn't bring the whole squad with them
That's my take
And remittances to their country helps their economy...giving them less of a reason to all come here

quote:Did you think that was defense of illegal immigration? Because it wasn't. Just setting the scale, that this amount of remittances isn't really very significant compared to the size of our economy, our federal debt, the size of our federal spending, or even the annual deficit.
And how much are they consuming in public services which they do not pay into?
