A couple of reasons that I can think of...

Pay into the American system and the drive will be on to 'equalize' payments going out of the country to Mexico. That differential will be a boon to the lower living costs there.

The second thing is that SS recipients, on average, receive far more than they ever put in. In this way, foreign nationals will be the direct recipients of your tax monies forever - or at least until they die.

Do you think SSA will be notified when they die?

What about the thousands of non-hispanic U.S. citizens who have retired to various places in Central America in order to stretch their retirement dollars?

Then Bush shouldn't hand over the cash, but stop them from paying SS here. Don't include them at all. That way the US doesn't get screwed carring the burden.
Opps. I get it now. (DUH!)Bush went the wrong way.

Makes no sense, tastes like a new world order stupid idea, encourages more illegal immigration. When will Bush and others stop, this American soil is already overcome with negative foreign influences. Let the real United States of America awake and take control over their God-given right to preserve our culture and the piece of soil assigned to us - not to all the disenchanted foreigners.

"The second thing is that SS recipients, on average, receive far more than they ever put in."

Not true for people retiring today or tommorow. It is only true for people who retired in the past.
