The money they make is going south, untaxed. It isn't picking tomatoes, but construction and factory jobs, meat packing, etc.
With an unemployment rate between 9 and 16%, can we really afford to be giving jobs to people who won't pay taxes?
I'll bet this works out like health insurance, and a lot of illegals won't opt in (why pay taxes?).
Secure the d@mned borders! Deport the illegals.
Yup - the Democrats and the media like to cite how middle class wages are stagnating. But what effect would reducing the burdens on property and other taxes - money used to fund illegals in schools, hospitals and prisons - have?
