I've seen it alleged repeatedly by sympathetic members here that illegals "pay taxes".
HOW ?!?
They're here illegally.
They have no driver's license.
They have no social security card.
They have no passport or papers or green card.
I live in Florida and I've met many illegals, mostly in medical offices where I've worked. And if it did any good, I would report them to INS, at least the suspicion they're here illegally.
As I understand it, they can use fake identification, by borrowing a legal friend's Social security card and driver's license.
Or take some unknown living or dead person's social security number and info (i.e., identity theft).
Either one of these is a crime.
But the majority of illegals I've known, or suspected, who are here illegally simply have under-the-table jobs, in restaurants, as housekeepers, house-painting, construction, pressure-cleaning, or some other cash business, and thus pay no taxes.
So please, how do they pay taxes?
