Why do the pro-illegal people always pretend that illegal aliens receive paychecks?

We KNOW that most of them are paid in cash under the table. That is pretty much the main benefit to hiring an illegal alien over a legal citizen. The employer doesn't have to pay nearly as much money (avoiding all kinds of taxes). Even IF the illegal alien receives a paycheck and has taxes taken out, it has to be under a false (often stolen) identity. Either way it is an illegal operation, and whichever way it is handled, the legal citizen tax payers still get the worst end of the deal, and the illegal aliens still get freebies.

Answer:
CHEAP LABOR?
Isn't that what the whole immigration issue is about?
Business doesn't want to pay a decent wage.
Consumers don't want expensive produce.
Government will tell you Americans don't want the jobs.
But the bottom line is cheap labor. The phrase "cheap labor" is a myth, a farce, and a lie. there is no such thing as "cheap labor."
Take, for example, an illegal alien with a wife and five children. He takes a job for $5.00 or $6.00/hour. At that wage, with six dependents, he pays no income tax, yet at the end of the year, if he files an Income Tax Return, he gets an "earned income credit" of up to $3,200 free.
He qualifies for Section 8 housing and subsidized rent.
He qualifies for food stamps.
He qualifies for free (no deductible, no co-pay) health care.
His children get free breakfasts and lunches at school.
He requires bilingual teachers and books.
He qualifies for relief from high energy bills.
If they are or become, aged, blind or disabled, they qualify for SSI. Once qualified for SSI they can qualify for Medicare. All of this is at (our) taxpayer's expense.
He doesn't worry about car insurance, life insurance, or homeowners insurance.
Taxpayers provide Spanish language signs, bulletins and printed material.
He and his family receive the equivalent of $20.00 to $30.00/hour in benefits.
Working Americans are lucky to have $5.00 or $6.00/hour left after paying their bills and his.
The American taxpayers also pay for increased crime, graffiti and trash clean-up.
Cheap labor? YEAH RIGHT! Wake up people. THESE ARE THE QUESTIONS WE SHOULD BE ADDRESSING TO THE PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATES FOR EITHER PARTY. 'AND WHEN THEY LIE TO US AND DON'T DO AS THEY SAY, WE SHOULD REPLACE THEM AT ONCE!'



THIS HAS GOT TO BE PASSED ALONG TO AS MANY AS POSSIBLE OR WE WILL ALL GO DOWN THE DRAIN BECAUSE A FEW DON'T CARE.
Excellent points!
Plus, since their income is unreported, there is nothing to say they're not dirt poor and in need of all the social programs available.


CHIP--
Sheer brilliance!... Absolutely 110% true!!
I agree with Chip's statement.
You are wrong.Check with the Social Security office or the IRS office near you and see if they can get an ITIN or Tax I D number.And it's legal so please stop with hate lies.It just makes your arguments unbelievable when those of us who do know the facts read your argument.
Yes, and then you add in that not one illegal alien can honestly say "I've never broken the law in the United States" and it becomes crystal clear that we need to round 'em up, brand 'em (fingerprints, DNA) and deport them. And if it were up to me, all their family, legal and illegal would go also and loose the right to be a citizen forever.

In other words, respect our laws or stay out of our country, period.
Is suppose that any employer hire illegal people but that is far from the true, if you go to a farm they hire you without asking for papers and must of the employer hire even they riquire papers you bring some steal indentity and you go in and they know that person is not you, becuse is that ss dont wark they will be albe to hire with a differnt one. But the first reason they do that is becaouse they want cheap worker and the second becouse they're unable to find workers. If they work with a false ID they pay taxes in name of others but if they work under the table. No way.
I'm seeing all this crap about itns, and it's exactly that. It's crap. I refuted a poster on that issue yesterday using the persons own offer of proof from the IRS which states in part that an ITN can only be obtained by a CITIZEN who can prove citizenship and who applies for a social security card first. So if you ILLEGALS are getting itns, you're doing it with forged or stolen birth certificates. Yet MORE laws that illegals break. To CCC...they don't take much tax out when the illegals are claiming married and 14 on their W-4, but I agree. They are mostly day laborers who get paid cash. Then the cash leaves down to their country of origin via moneygrams. ICE here has begun raiding check cashing services with great results.
There is some disparity between your question and some of the answers.

"Take, for example, an illegal alien with a wife and five children. He takes a job for $5.00 or $6.00/hour. At that wage, with six dependents, he pays no income tax, yet at the end of the year, if he files an Income Tax Return, he gets an "earned income credit" of up to $3,200 free.

This doesn't make any sense at all. If you're illegal none of this is going to happen. That's part of the problem.
In most states particularly the border states most are pain in cash and paid daily. No checks no records no taxes. A TIN # is NOT a right to work in this nation. The illegal aliens have no right to work here or be in this nation. That's why they are called ILLEGAL.
They can and do get free education for their many children. The obtain welfare by presenting stolen,bought,borrowed or forged documents. They get free medical care at out ERs because by US law they cant turn anyone away .
They are working the system for all they can. I am sick of their demands and this must be stooped. Close and secure the borders deport them all.. They got here and they can be forced to leave . Nothing is impossible.
most of them do pay taxes, because if they have fake papers, their job takes it out of their pay just like everyone else so get it right you rednecks!
