This money would escape a National Sales Tax.
It doesn't say these are illegal immigrants? I am confused. Are we talking about legal immigrants that are sending money back home? Maybe I didn't read far enough.
About half of the illegals work in the underground economy so this money has escaped all kinds of taxes.
We should put a heavy tax on these transfers by non-citizens to recoup some of the free ride they have been taking on the backs of American taxpayers. It would also serve as a disincentive to come here.
