Your idea is interesting but some of your assumptions are wrong - and I think you’re getting riled up over a few things that are not true. (And let me hasten to add, a lot of things that are true....)
A: If they work for a company of any size, or work for a company for any length of time, they will have taxes withheld in all likelihood. Companies, like construction, landscaping, janitorial, who have a payroll system, cannot really get away with under the table. Especially is most or all of their customers pay in check or credit card (meaning all commercial accounts).
Not saying it’s okay, just saying if we’re gonna discuss this issue, let’s get the facts right. No reason to get angry over something that isn’t happening. There’s plenty of legit stuff to get angry about.
B:A lot of Hispanic labor is legal, and they work for the same wage as the illegals as far as I can tell.
C: The hand out illegal community is largely NOT the working illegal community. Two different universes, both with a separate set of problems.
This is THE BEST argument to support the Fair Tax. It removes ALL federal withholding taxes and places a sales tax... THAT EVERYBODY PAYS, on every purchase. Then EVERYBODY is sharing the same tax burden.
If you drill down to the core issue, you’ll find leftists supporting the 40+ MILLION ILLEGAL INVADERS to get 40+ MILLION more leftist voters.
That would provide a permanent leftist voting majority into perpetuity and forever “fundamentally change America into a permanent socialist/communist society where the Constitution becomes meaningless.
It’s all about power with leftists and their ability to control the wealth for their inner circle.
It’s not rocket science...
Jose illegal is technically not eligible for most of the benefits you list.
That may be poorly enforced, but it is the law.
Even many legal immigrants are not eligible for many of these programs.

Took a walk to the corner store
Just to buy a loaf of bread and a box of s`mores
Up pulled a guy in a yellow van
Shiny gold badge flashing in his hand
He said, alright all you mojados down here
I want you all to hit the floor
I got one thing to ask you and nothing more
So answer in English, if you can
Where were ya born, man
Huh? Where was I born?
That`s right, I said
Where were ya born?
Hey, are you one of those dudes who do horoscopes, man
Hey, I`m a Cancer with a bad moon rising
Look here el fago, watch my lips
Where were ya born?
I was BORN IN EAST L.A.
Man, I was BORN IN EAST L.A.
Oh yeah, you were BORN IN EAST L.A.
Let`s see your green card
Huh? Green card?
I`m from East LA
Alright, then who`s President of the United States
Oh, that`s easy, man
That guy that used to be on Death Valley Days, John Wayne
Alright, let`s go, come on
Next thing I know, I`m in a foreign land
People talkin so fast, I couldn`t understand
There was nobody there to lend a helping hand
I was cold, it was dark where is a burger stand
I want to go back to East LA
I wish I was back in East LA
I don`t belong here in downtown T.J.
Cause I was born in East LA, ole
I crawled under barbed wire, swam across a stream
Rode in six different trucks packed like a sardine
Walked all day in the burning sun
Now I know what it`s like to be born to run
Up ahead was the promised land
Shining like a star just beyond my hand
All I could see was a golden door
I looked up, a sign said five billion sold
And I was back in East LA
Yes, I was back in East LA
You know I`m never gonna stray
Cause I was born in East LA, oh LA
