I think I was the one who used the phrase "victimless crime".

I roughly estimated that 1/3 of invalid IDs are borrowed from friends and family with the full knowledge and encouragement of the owner. In those cases, it is a "victimless crime".

In another 1/3, the ID is that of a person long dead or a number not yet assigned to anyone, or a number assigned to a child or other person and in which the amount of money reported on the illegal worker was so small that it caused no problem. Those also are "victimless crimes".

Then there is about 1/3 where there is a victim, as in the case above. In most of these cases, the victim is of the same ethnic background as the illegal using the stolen ID.

There is a 4th group I did not mention yesterday. Democrat Congressman Rostenkowski arranged for his patronage to be hired by the Social Security Administration (His committee controlled the SS. In Chicago, only Rostys people knew the date and location of the civil service exam to obtain that employment.) That patronage army SOLD Social Security Cards (and voter registration cards and Drivers Licenses to illegals. During the 60s they mostly sold to east Europeans illegals.

Then my friend Oscar Lopez (not an immigrant, nor of immigrant ancestry) organized the illegal Mexicans, Guatamalens, etc to protest that Rosty was discriminating. Thus in the 70's and since, the Democrats have sold SSNs, etc without discrimination based on race or ethnicity. (It still helps to pass a few Jacksons ... and of course, the illegal must vote Democrat at every election; but that is not a burden as the precinct captain will do it for you and save you the trouble.)

So really, there are 4 situations, not 3, of invalid SSNs. But since the 4th type are SSNs issued by the Social Security Administration itself, they are not seen as a problem by law enforcement.

Why Rosty isn't still in prison mystifies me.

Although I must say the video of him being chased out of a 'town meeting' by a mob of angry senior citizens is one I really, really wish I could dig up on youtube.

That was funny as hell.
