IRS agreement with ICE to share immigrants' info could lead to billions less in tax revenue 10% fewer undocumented immigrants filing their taxes would mean a decrease of $9.5 billion a year in tax revenue, a tax policy organization found.

Read: “WE NEED ALL THE ILLEGALS WE CAN GET TO HELP OUR BUDGET!”

[SoConPubbie]

Another Faux reason to keep the illegal aliens here.

Don’t want them and certainly do not accept their false premise!

[HIDEK6]

Look! The idea is that the criminals get deported.

[DesertRhino]

9.6 billion? Ok, and how many billions would we save by using that information to deport more illegals?

By the way, not everything is about money.

The Biden crowd didn’t care about money when they wee flooding them in. Suddenly they are budget hawks? Forget about it.

Who cares if we lose a mere $9.5 bil,ion- illegals cost this nation over $1 TRILLION DOLLARS every single year when all the costs of their crimes, both direct costs and indirect, are estimated! Deport them all and close the border and we will GAIN hundreds of billions perhaps a more than a trillion and our nation will be much much safer! Ther is a lowball estimate of 80,000 VIOLENT crimina,s that pour across our border every year! Those folks are walking the streets in neighborhoods all across this nation!

Where did he get the SSN from to file his taxes?

[Bob434]

I answered that in my post- they did an esti ate decades ago, back when we didn’t have nesrly as many illegals as today, and back then the esti ate was “between $400 billion and $600 billion when all costs were added up” (direct and indirect, ie a family loses their bread winner to a drunk illegal driver, the family then needs counseling, likely put on meds to cope, loses the salary of the earner, have to take lesser paying jobs, etc)

That figure is no doubt over $1 trillion dol.ars today as numbers have doubled or more since the estimates were done decades ago.

Like millions of American citizens and immigrants who are here legally, Ivan filed his taxes last year, using a stolen / false Social Security Number. But Ivan, 54, a Massachusetts resident who hails an illegal alien from Colombia, is worried a recent agreement between the IRS and Immigration and Customs Enforcement means he is in danger of being deported for doing what he believed was the right thing being in the country illegally.

Whose Social Security Number did Ivan steal?

We’re doomed!!

[JimRed]

The ones who pay their taxes are the ones we should want.

[SoConPubbie]

Not if they are illegal!

[tumblindice]

“Finish the damn wall” tag line
But we want some of them. Whut?

[lastchance]

If he is undocumented all he needs to do his provide the proper information to get the correct documents to show he has legal status in the U.S.

Oh, you mean he entered this country illegally? That is not the same thing at all.

[VanShuyten]

Tell me again how a $10 billion loss there would offset the $100 billion that illegals cost us now, plus the losses from crime and the hurt on the criminals’ victims.

[9YearLurker]

A bargain if they are all sent home.

[know.your.why]

Excellent argument to get them tf out of the US and let them try to enter legally.

[Beowulf9]

Yeah. That’s what I get out of it.

Let’s not talk about irresponsible spending.

[jughandle]

Call me whatever but how does someone file taxes without a social security number, which illegals don’t have? And does anyone who relies on cash day labor actually file a return?

[mass55th]

RATS refused to give President Trump $5.7 billion to build the wall to keep these criminal bastards out.
