In order for an illegal alien to live and work in the U.S., an illegal alien commits violations of law far more numerous than just being here. And those taxes you say they pay aren't enough to offset the total cost of services, such as K-12 education, emergency medical care and jail time.

They are living in a a delusional world. They obviously think we will allow them to stay here, break our laws and we will look the other way but they are living in a fantasy world. They act like they don't comprehend the word "illegal", as if it means nothing.
It really doesn't matter if they pay taxes with a legal EIN or a stolen, forged, or rented SS#, the fact is they are here illegal and should be deported.
As someone else said once, if "Ignorance is Bliss", they must feel extremely 'Blissful'.

Because They provide a service that most Americans would choose not to do, and they do pay tax's when purchasing goods. This is the way it should be for all American citizens. This would balance the beam.
Those Tax's would be enough, because the even bill gates would pay tax. right now he pays none. for K-12 take all the money that goes to pay the 6 million IRS employees. The tax rates would increase some , but then your wages go up because the Fed tax's no longer apply. Think

Being here illegally is a misdemeanor punishable by jail time, as well. Coming back after being deported is a felony.
And the taxes don't even pay a small fraction of the costs.

They are trying to take the heat off of themselves.
I say build the wall, we don't have a right to protect our own borders?
My wife is an immigrant. A LEGAL immigrant!
She isn't too happy that I had to pay almost 5 grand in legal fees to process her legally and she had to wait patiently to get her green card. And these illegal immigrants can just cut ahead in front of the line. And yes, they are Illegal Aliens, I'm tired of these politically correct phoney feel good words.

To all the people who say "undocumented immigrants" have a right to come to America:
What about all the people who come to America LEGALLY? These "undocumented immigrants" get to cut in line in front of them. Legal immigrants pay thousands of dollars in legal fees and other costs just to become a legal, contributing member of American society. Nobody is saying anything negative about these LEGAL immigrants- America is grateful and thankful for every one. America is a 'melting pot' and is as it should be. But illegal immigration is taking the system and shattering it to pieces- and its blown up in the faces of all the thousands of immigrants that go through all the trouble and all the expenses and all the labor/work just to get to the point that the 'undocumented aliens' have cheated and stole their way to. Yes stole- they stole from the legal immigrants and cheated their way into America- bypassing all civil obedience and making themselves apparent to everyone that they are criminals- unwilling to accept the rule and regulation of the society that they have cheated their way into.

Because we live in a country where willful violation of federal law can be justified by our own government, for no valid reason.
So, if law enforcement personnel claim to be able to ingore the law, what kind of example does that set for everyone else?

Apparently our elected representatives, you know the ones who took an oath to uphold the laws and the constitution, don't think it's important to actually uphold the law .... as long as their big business buddies get their slave labor, this government seems happy and content ... I for one intend to let them know what I think of them in November .... personally, I think they should be fired from their cushy jobs ...

Cause all their doing is trying to make a better life for them self in America as they were unable to do in their home country and they felt that sneaking inside the country was their only option for a sucessful or better life.

They came for food freedom and faith from not so free societies. Under employing , treating them as criminals and jailing them makes U.S . just another country whence they ran.
