My town is overrun with primarily Peruvians, and while some are good workers others just game the system; the biggest “freebie” is public education, for which American homeowners pay massive costs (the Peruvians don’t buy homes, and many are illegals). Not only do they avoid the whole property/school tax issue often by renting illegal apartments, they also save up to skedaddle when they’ve made their money - so the future pension costs of gubmint workers are irrelevant to them

Here the price for a low-rest 3 bedroom is close to 2k a month, plus heat and lectric, and which rent does indirectly pay prop. taxes, as do those who have legal jobs, but the money sent home is "foreign aid." .

No questions tenants indirectly pay property taxes, but when the apartment itself is an illegal conversion there is $0 being collected on it.

After 9/11 look at how we had to eat that sh!t sandwich called the “Patriot Act” which destroyed our privacy and made international money transfers a pain for Americans - and look at how banks and our own government bend over backwards to let these foreigners send money internationally. The gripes of many on this forum are due to the fact that as “normals” we have to obey laws or there are consequences. People who cheat welfare, ignore immigration laws, fabricate hate crimes - they all get a pass.
