A lot will sign up.....

Illegal immigrants will receive huge payments from American taxpayers under rules now being imposed by President Barack Obama’s unilateral amnesty.

The illegals will get work-permits and Social Security cards, and will be required to pay taxes, according to Cecilia Munoz, the former immigration lobbyist who is now a top Obama aide.

That means they’re part of the tax system, she said, when she was asked if the illegals would get annual payments under the Earned Income Tax Credit program.

“They are subject to our tax law,” she said, carefully.

Most households of illegals have very low income, and pay little in taxes. For example, in 2011, roughly 22 percent of immigrant households — both legal and illegal — were classified as living in poverty. In contrast, only 13 percent of American households were in poverty.

However, once illegal immigrants are enrolled in the tax system, they would be entitled to EITC payments.

The payments may be huge, and will rise each year.

According to the Internal Revenue Service, two parents with three or more children would receive up to $6,143 in 2014 if they earn less than $46,997.

A family with two kids, and an income of $20,000, would receive $14,590 in taxpayer funds this year alone.

Parents who earn less than the threshold would get $3,305 if they have one child, and $5,460 if they have two children.

The EITC program is already poorly monitored and may be subject to large amounts of fraud, according to critics.

Another study says that 47 percent of legal and illegal immigrants and their children are classified as living in poverty or in near-poverty, according to the Center for Immigration Studies, which favors reduced annual immigration.

They are getting all sorts of welfare now. No one investigates to verify that they are Americans. There are dozens of public and private forms of welfare that they use on a daily basis. I’ve worked with charities in the barrio. Illegals often have more free spending money than you do. Try working off the books, not paying any taxes, not paying for insurance, getting free food and healthcare, and see how it works for you.

When GHW Bush was President the city of Costa Mesa had a rule that only American citizens could live in taxpayer supported housing. HUD genius Jack Kemp flew out here and raised hell, forcing Costa Mesa to let illegal alien foreign nationals live in subsidized housing.

There’s your investigating, and there’s your example of how the GOPe behaves when it’s their turn to enforce our laws. They won’t do it. Like Dubya and Obama they want amnesty.
