Who exactly funds these “studies”? Where do you get all of these "facts" about taxes?
Are you stupid enough to believe that illegal immigration isn’t an incredible net fiscal AND SOCIETAL drain on this country? Seriously nobody could be that fricking stupid.
sounds like you’re a far left whackjob who just looks for “studies“ and “facts“ (paid for by far left interest groups) that support your political ideology.

Your statement about not abusing the medical system is flat out ignorant and inaccurate. I deal with it quite frequently

Do you understand that when these illegals come here and squeeze out a kid the kid qualifies for medicaid?
We have a well developed welfare system and there are BILLIONS of third worlders who would love to come get a piece of our welfare pie.
The system we, de facto, had in place more or less worked. The feds would raid a few workplaces to raise awareness and slow the flow when necessary. We had an inflow of cheap labor. And nothing was ever really fixed so both parties could use illegals as a cudgel to beat each other.
Then dim-commies decided to flood the country to get perpetual control. Thank God for Donald Trump!

You sold me. Illegal immigrants are a credit to society. That’s exactly why we need to be generous and send them all home to build up their own native country. The US shouldn’t hog all the best citizens in the world. Let’s be kind and return them home.

So nobody has any facts to link to or anything? " I deal with it regularly" & "just walk into a "x" and you'll see" are not facts.

Many undocumented workers have taxes withheld from their paychecks using an Individual Taxpayer Identification Number (ITIN)
Those are granted to legal immigrants with work visas, etc.
Illegals, who by definition are not here legally, don’t have ITINs but they steal other people’s social security numbers or use dead people’s so that when they get their paychecks their employers are paying their payroll taxes. Worse, is if these people are using their identity thieved SSNs to file tax returns so they can get “refunds.”
They send their kids to public schools, go to ERs to give birth or when they have a toothache and all manner of shite, and if they actually get a bill someone else pays it bc the hospital just passes that along by charging people $400 for an Aspirin and shite.

I'm sure most of you are adults here, I know you don't believe this stuff. There's no way that you believe that illegal immigrants don't pay taxes and don't commit lower crime than the average American. All you have to do is look it up and you can see that that's incorrect.
I vote with facts, not my feelings.

What you just said about ITIN's is absolutely false.

The fact is they still only cost .4% of Medicaid due to Emergency Medicaid

The 14 states that currently provide health coverage to undocumented migrants are California, New York, Illinois, Washington, New Jersey, Oregon, Massachusetts, Minnesota, Colorado, Connecticut, Utah, Rhode Island, Maine and Vermont. Washington, D.C., does likewise.
quote:
Five states have programs that provide nutrition assistance to immigrants who are not eligible for coverage under the federally funded Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), formerly known as the Food Stamp Program.
quote:
Are immigrants eligible for state benefit programs?
In some states, yes. Twenty-six states make immigrants eligible for state-funded benefit programs. Most of these states either offer assistance to families or provide access to healthcare to otherwise uninsured immigrants. Examples of these programs are New York’s Safety Net Assistance, California’s CalFresh Food Assistance Program, and California’s Cash Assistance Program for Immigrants (CAPI)

You vote for whomever has the D beside their name.

Too many words. They have been getting benefits and you are a moron if you think otherwise!
Definitely NOT too many words. The guy did a good job laying out many facts. But you are right that they have been getting benefits, starting with USAID money to get them to our border, across our border, and into housing. Then their children become citizens, and periodically the government gives amnesty and they become citizens.
But make no mistake about it, illegal immigration has been a net positive for our overall economy. Where it has been a problem is that it has served to drive down labor prices, thus increasing the gap between laborers and the managerial class.
