Hire an illegal and you should be responsible for them.

So if a property owner hires a contractor who employs illegal aliens, then the property own should bear the cost? I don't ever recall property owners being responsible real American workers. It's the job of the contractor to withhold workers compensation. The worker get covered by that. Do you think that happened in this case?

You are taking the word of the only corroborator, the OTHER illegal alien, that the employer KNEW he was using fake SS#’s? The coke/weed would be enough to negate most work comp claims. He’s been treated for 3 years, and still hasn’t tried to find a path to citizenship, even though advocacy groups offer to initiate it free? And, if the illegal alien brother was such a stand-up guy, why isn’t HE helping him? He should have been deported, and receive the treatment to which his home country offers.

Workers compensation laws vary from state to state. In Wisconsin, workers, legal and illegal, collect benefits and get their medicals paid by the employer’s WC insurance carrier. With this fact situation in WI, the carrier could lessen the benefits 15% if the worker’s use of cocaine or alcohol was casual to the accident, but the carrier bears the burden of proof of cause.

This employer violated federal law by hiring a person it knew to be an illegal as the employer filed several forms with different names on this worker. The federal law violation is just a fine and many employers feel it’s just a cost of doing business and like that illegals work for lower wages. Omama wants to overlook illegals as he expects them to vote for him even though their votes are not lawful.

About 30 years ago an illegal died from injuries working on a ranch. The outcome was the judge ruled just as you said- the owner had to pay the widow the same benefits worker's comp would have paid if he had been a legal worker- and pay all medical expenses out of his pocket. That was one rancher that never ever hired an illegal again.

If it worked this way everywhere then I would bet it would be a lot harder for illegals to find work here.
