Still, "no taxation without representation." May I suggest that if aliens aren't allowed to vote in American elections, they should be immune from American taxation?
Aren't school taxes raised through property tax levies? In this age of mass immigration in CA, isn't this literally immigrants flexing their new numerical and political muscle. The only immigrants who will vote against this (in a small bloc) are those who see past the BS that will be spouted and understand that their rent will increase when school budgets increase. Immigrants who own homes will fall within regular splits for or against any budget.
May I suggest that "immune from American taxation" is a stupid idea. The illegals & some legals reap all the other benefits: medical, education, welfare, housing, etc. They can certainly pay taxes to assist with those benefits.
They can also just get busy & do the homework if they want to be citizens & have the PRIVILEGE of voting.
(If you were being sarcastic I apologize ;))
May I suggest that you can go to live in any country in the world, legally or illegally, as a resident, as a worker, or as a tourist and until you become a citizen of that country you will not be voting in their elections, but you will still be required to pay their taxes.
Why should non citizens be allowed to vote in any election? Allowing that would be no different than allowing me, living here in PA, to vote in CA elections.
If they do not have the documentation to legally work in the US, they aren't paying taxes. Ever heard of being payed under the table?
