If you don't count services to American citizens children of illegals, are they paying more in taxes...? |
than the services they receive? Please provide numbers and statistics, and cite your sources... Illegal immigrants do not pay taxes! Most work for cash under the table but those that do get a check and USE a social security number fill out their W-2s with so many dependents(whether they exist or not) that very little or no taxes are taken out of their checks. Source(s): I was a manager for a company that utilizes employees with questionable citizenship for many years. I saw numerouse(almost all) W-2s filled out this way. What is your question? The children of illegals won't want to do the jobs that their parents did, so we will need millions more illegals to do the jobs of an ever-expanding population. The obvious solution is to pay Americans more so they will want to do the jobs. Based on Census Bureau data, this study finds that, when all taxes paid (direct and indirect) and all costs are considered,illegal households created a net fiscal deficit at the federal level of more than $10 billion in 2002. We also estimate that, if there was an amnesty for illegal aliens, the net fiscal deficit would grow to nearly $29 billion. Among the findings: 鈥?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. 鈥?Among the largest costs are Medicaid ($2.5 billion); treatment for the uninsured ($2.2 billion); food assistance programs such as food stamps, WIC, and free school lunches ($1.9 billion); the federal prison and court systems ($1.6 billion); and federal aid to schools ($1.4 billion). 鈥?With nearly two-thirds of illegal aliens lacking a high school degree, the primary reason they create a fiscal deficit is their low education levels and resulting low incomes and tax payments, not their legal status or heavy use of most social services. 鈥?On average, the costs that illegal households impose on federal coffers are less than half that of other households, but their tax payments are only one-fourth that of other households. 鈥?Many of the costs associated with illegals are due to their American-born children, who are awarded U.S. citizenship at birth. Thus, greater efforts at barring illegals from federal programs will not reduce costs because their citizen children can continue to access them. 鈥?If illegal aliens were given amnesty and began to pay taxes and use services like households headed by legal immigrants with the same education levels, the estimated annual net fiscal deficit would increase from $2,700 per household to nearly $7,700, for a total net cost of $29 billion. 鈥?Costs increase dramatically because unskilled immigrants with legal status 鈥?what most illegal aliens would become 鈥?can access government programs, but still tend to make very modest tax payments. 鈥?Although legalization would increase average tax payments by 77 percent, average costs would rise by 118 percent. 鈥?The fact that legal immigrants with few years of schooling are a large fiscal drain does not mean that legal immigrants overall are a net drain 鈥?many legal immigrants are highly skilled. 鈥?The vast majority of illegals hold jobs. Thus the fiscal deficit they create for the federal government is not the result of an unwillingness to work. http://www.cis.org/articles/2004/fiscal.... |
