The Social Security Funds Of Illegal Aliens.
Or The Case Of The Dirty Hands. This issue is really a no-brainer, unless you happen to be a conservative, concerned with conserving your own money.
Illegal aliens are illegal, but so is hiring them. These illegal employers are not just corporate entities, but also individuals who invited these foreigners into their homes to clean their houses and take care of their children. How big of a problem would there have been if the legal Americans had followed the law? These cheapskates placed a huge security risk on their fellow Americans, while at the same time taking good paying jobs away from their fellow citizens. Illegal workers can't claim workman's comp, and their employers don't have to pay their bills either. Illegal workers don't have to pay taxes, not that they are at the high end of any pay scale, but still. Illegal workers are subsidized by illegal employers.
I'm sick of the immigration debate. I think we should go after the crooks, all of them, on a case by case basis. There are names on all of those checks, and the checks were signed by someone.
The no-brainer is that the money that went into Social Security accounts initially belonged to the workers, not the government. Who defrauded whom here? We live in a global society, and it would take an international court of law to decide this case impartially. ¶ 7:55 AM
According to the Senior Citizens League, the amount of Social Security funds that do not match government records almost doubled in the last five years when compared to the 63 previous years since 1937.So, let me see if I got this straight. Our country has allowed the big agribusinesses and just about anyone to hire illegal aliens without any legal consequences. Large corporations have benefited from cheap labor by making tidy sums for themselves and their shareholders. Individual Americans have stolen jobs from their fellow Americans by knowingly hiring illegal aliens. Let's see now. Just what are we going to do with the social security money that the government took out of the workers' pay checks?
