How do illegal aliens benifit American society?

Question

and working jobs americans won't is not a good enough answer.
because, yea they work for $5 an hour but they can afford to get paid so less because they don't have to pay for health care, they don't have to pay for education, they get section 8 housing, they get food stamps, they are eligable for reductions on living expenses that American tax payers have to cover, so tell me how to they benifit us? oh ya i forgot the bar is lowered in schools because they don't have to learn english, everything is translated for them, they use us to get free eduaction then they send the money they make back to their home planet. we must protect our boarders. and yes at some point everyone immagrated here from somewhere else, but i am talking about society today.

did anyone ever think that if there were no illegals to do the hard work, then americans WOULD do the hard work.

Top 10 reasons Illegals are Awesome! for the US:

1) They take all the entry level jobs so that our high school kids won't be distracted by the chance to work.
2) Increased class sizes make for lower heating costs
3) Getting hit by an uninsured motorist builds character
4) They make us appreciate why some Native Americans fought so hard against foreigners
5) Their sheer numbers in the labor pool keep those pesky labor unions from getting too upity.
6) Their presence reminds us that our government really ISN'T looking out for us
7) They've created a new market for TB Immunizations
8) National Sovereignty is waaaay over-rated
9) They support Law Enforcement by filling at least 17% of our prison population
10) They help keep the number of open Emergency Rooms in California down to a more manageable level.

Answer 2

ha, someone said their ancestors came here legally?! there were no laws back then when your ancestors came. So what are you talking about? And maybe you should go back to where your ancestors came from if you can't spell right. Get some grammar skills. I have sympathy for them, because I am one of them. I have been here for 22 years of my life, I am only 23. I don't do anything illegal and work for my money. I don't steal to get anything I want or need. I'm one of those with morals and brains! I don't care much for those who are dedicated to destruction and hate though. No matter where you came from or didn't come from.

Answer 3

It sure is benefiting the WHITE business owner that hires them, and he is getting away with paying those low wages for hard work. If doing the jobs most Americans won't do isn't a good enough answer, then who's going to do those jobs? I certainly don't think your uncle Chad is going to pick oranges or clean bathrooms. Next time you see Mr. Business owner, ask him how he likes the fact that he can pull one of his guys off a hard days work in the late afternoon to wash his wife's car for the same pay.

And as for signs and advertising in their language, Mr. Business owner can tell you how that helps his business out to.

Answer 4

first at all not all of them work for five dollars darling and in fact some may even make more than many American just because they work harder , they do work hard u know or why would anyone hire them if they didn't ??? . anyways i would like to bring a fact to u , did u knew that for example the Hispanics spend as much as just a little less than 1 trillion dollars per year ??? do u have any idea how many jobs that soly creates for the Americans ??? , if they use services well duh all humans do and if u did need help i would NOT spend all day and night just to judge every American because of u and by the way they are only a 6 percent of the students in the USA so what u say about them bringing down others is just completely fake , some have even end up being honor students just so u know , what a kid learns in school most of the time depends in the attention that kids pay to class , so if u know of anyone who is going that way just remind him than he receives a lot more than the kids around the world who by the way do much better , honesty helps sometimes u know !!!.

as a note i would like to add because of veterans day than as many as 6000 foreigners have been granted citizenship because of either the war in Iraq or Afghanistan , yes an undocumented could be saving ur tush and yet u would not mention that kind nor do u care , time to get real there is good and bad in every group or race of people .

EDIT :
if u are worried about jobs perhaps u may ask for those business which went to china to be returned to the USA .

Answer 5

Illegal immigrants generally work for less money than a documented worker (who is required to be paid minimum wage). This benefits companies who can produce goods cheaper that if they had to pay documented workers more money.

This savings does trickle down to the american consumer (particularly with food) as goods are cheaper to buy than they otherwise would be. Whether this is a benefit to the american society, however, is debateable.

Also, even if this is a benefit, does that offset the negatives such as overcrowding in taxpayer supported programs (schools, hospitals, etc.)?

Answer 6

Honey ,you're beating a dead horse. Illegals come here to work for the season and send money home,then they also go back home so they can do it again next year. Farmers and business owners don't say anything because illegals make an average,and I do nean an average of about $75 billion a year. Of that money ,illegals(not just Mexicans) send about $20 billion of it home.
I suppose nobody ever told you that sixty percent of the world's population DOESN'T speak English. The three main languages spoken on Earth are French,Chinese,and Spanish. If you can speak one of those three along with English you can talk to anybody.

Answer 7

Immigration is like real estate . . . the market is definitely local. Unfortunately, everyone pays regardless of where they live. I would have no problem allowing businesses to utilize illegal immigrant workers as long as they were required to pay the social services the American tax payer pays to compensate for the low wages.

Answer 8

They take jobs that Americans would do if they were paid a fair wage. Because "illegals" do those jobs more Americans won't be able to afford to live at a higher standard and thus will be more dependent on government to take care of them.

Answer 9

They don't. They benefit illicit employers who use them to evade minimum wage and labor-protection laws, then dump the problems they creat on the taxpayers via social services. Some illegals also benefit the society of thier homelands - either with thier absence, or, more typically, by sending home money that is spent in the local economy.

Answer 10

Hey if it weren't for them, I would have to do my own yard. Send them all back since I need the exercise anyways. Its great when someone breaking the law is allowed to suck off of us. What a country.
