I have seen nothing about that and it sure as heck was not in Bush's proposal. Even if true you are not going to find many of these illegals working long enough to gain benefits.

Verify, where do you get your numbers from? Mine usually come from talk radio, and I'm pretty confident about the prison population, especially California, and the 9-11 deaths.

The 345bil SS#'s came from Neal Boortz, if I remember correctly.

Texasforver, it is in a separate proposal which has been given 'trial balloon" status and which Bush admin agreed to support when visiting Fox of Mexico. Giving soc sec benefits to illegal immigrants on the basis of the soc sec taxes they paid under false IDs is a bad idea ... If you commit documentation fraud you should not get the Govt benefits from that fraudulent ID. It should be forfeited.

To support this "totalization" is to encourage further illegal immigration. See here:
