Do you know illegal immigrants pay 50 billion a week in taxes ?
Answer:
I'm not sure on your numbers but...yes, illegal immigrants pay a LOT in taxes.
Most employers won''t employ them unless they have a Social Security #...Fake or not, the taxes deducted from payroll still get sent to the gov't. Does the Gov't nicely send them back & say "sorry, we can't take this...we know it's fake"? Of course not! they collect every penny of it.
Not to mention Social Security & Medicaid which are also deducted from payroll, which the illegal immigrant will never get to see the benefit of.
To who - they have no tax numbers or legal social security numbers so who are they paying all that money to?
Or are you claiming they are paying taxes?
Like say sales tax totally that exorbitant amount?
do you know i know about 30 illegal immigrants off the top of my head, and NOT ONE of them pay taxes? and about half of them GET WELFARE. (ETA: in case anyone is wondering, i'd report them, only it would do ZERO good, cause the welfare office KNOWS THEY'RE ILLEGAL- that's why they don't count the income these illegals make at their illegal jobs and they can get it.)
i'd need more than your word to believe such a number. especially when i know a fair number of illegals personally.
UUNNNNNNNNNN NOT
They dont pay sht in taxes
No they don't. That's why they are ILLEGAL Please cite your source of this idiotic and untrue statistic.
Okay??
According to who.....
I'm not entirely sure where that number comes from.
I'm pretty sure they are worth is more than that to our economy.
However, their use of our infrastructure costs us money.
So, I'd say it evens out.
So is the question about taxes or immigration? The average American resident pays between 40% and 60% of his or her yearly income to the government. If you're saying taxes makes illegal immigration okay, I don't follow the logic, but I have no problem with people who support themselves. I'm sorry for those who do and can't keep their money, illegal or not.
I would belive 50 million, not billion.
I'll assume your dollar figure is correct. But what does that have to do with them still being illegal? How many hundred's of billions a week in taxes to legal immigrants pay do you think?
Thats got to be the funniest joke tonight!
Get off the drugs. Show where you have aquired this info.LOL
Really wow,......... How did you find that out?
How? You have to be legal to have a social security number.
LOL, that is not possible. That means each illegal alien spends $2500 a week in taxes.
$50 billion a week / 20 million illegal aliens = $2500 a week.
So do I, everytime I purchase something. Duh.. What's your point. "Illegal" means against the law. My great grand parents paid a huge price coming here -- legally. A lot of my family was put to death by Hitler, still, those that made it here, did so legally. It's a huge slap in the face to have people supporting those who knowingly and wantonly defy our laws. It's aiding and abetting. It is in a word, illegal.
Prove it! Do you know they cost US Taxpayer citizens 52 billion a week in medical, stolen cars, car accidents with no insurance, jail, and having to post everything in two languages because they won't learn english?
50 billion times 52 weeks in year i make out to be 2 trillion 600 billion! If every illegal and Exxon turned over ALL their pay it would not add up to the figure you are stating as a fact. Did you go to public school?
Here's a statistic for you. 42 % of all statistics are just made up!
Now check out this video for some REAL numbers;

i don't know if this unbiased or not. but google immigrants and the economy. theres your proof. still want to deny it? GET YOUR CONSERVATIVE HEADS OUT OF YOUR ASSES!!!
Really? Cite your source, I'd like to research this further. Unless, of course, you are referring to the stolen identities they use...but even then, thats a bit excessive.
buuuuuu-sheeeeiiiiiiiiittttttt...
HOW do you figure this?????
NOT YOU AGAIN!!!!
the "hands down" most laughable question producer.
What's your next question? that the illegal immigrants invented ipod?
i don't think so. how are they able to tax someone who has no social security card, nothing to prove they are legal? stop listening to LA RAZA and people who preach LA RAZA'S hate. the American govt does not lie to American citizens.
El Thugo Gangstero, ur probly an okay guy. If only you weren't letting yourself be brainwashed. There is no such number in the link you provided. Further, It dealt with LEGAL immigrants!
I read that LEGAL Immigrants added $52 Billion to the US GDP in the decade from 1996 to 2005. I'm looking for the article. It was in the news last week. Most of the money came from the single biggest contributor, Indian Nationals in Silicon Valley.
Second was Chinese immigrants.
I'll have to agree that the $50 billion a week is quite impossible. Though I have read that many at the Swift meat packing plants have stolen ID's and do pay taxes. The more I read, the more I see that the expense is much higher, especially in social services and the burden on the education system.
I know (as most of us do; anyone who saw the movie "Transporter" pt 1) that many illegals are from China, and other places besides Mexico. And illegal is illegal. Germans and other Europeans are regularly caught with expired visas. The difference? They're sent back.
I don't know where you got your ridiculously inflated figure, but according to the Center for Immigration Studies, households headed by illegal aliens imposed more than $26.3 billion in costs on the federal government in 2002 and paid only $16 billion in taxes, creating a net fiscal deficit of almost $10.4 billion, or $2,700 per illegal household.
Please note that is $16 billion a YEAR paid by illegal aliens. There's a heck of a lot of difference between $16 billiion a YEAR and $50 billion a WEEK.
big deal sales tax whoooo whoooo I wish I only had to pay sales tax
Chew on this 250000-300000 prisoners 30000 dollars per prisoner to guard feed cloth and educate = 90, billion a year
this does not include the civil costs of police work detective work the burden on our court system local jail time or many other services on my accout they are still in the hole
Illegal immigrants do not pay USA Federal Government or State taxes.
Illegal Immigrants do pay taxes but can not get any money back so there for they are helping us out there. They may not have there own ss# but the one they use is real so the money still goes to us for all the inconsiderate people out there who don't know what there talking about
