lord-kitschener: jumpingjacktrash: stayingwoke: intergalacticsociety: But they aren’t documented so they wouldn’t be pa…..nvm This is a huge misconception for regular Americans. When the government uses the phrase “undocumented” they’re using it incorrectly because if they were truly undocumented then they would’ve be in system. However these immigrants are in the system and they pay taxes, file tax returns and get no benefits that citizens and legal residents get. They also get to see ICE showing up at their doors because the government has their addresses. Fun fact. “Undocumented” workers pays $12 billion dollars every year in taxes. https://www.google.com/amp/www.forbes.com/sites/niallmccarthy/2016/10/06/how-much-tax-do-americas-undocumented-immigrants-actually-pay-infographic/amp/ gosh but wouldn’t that be taxation without representation? i thought we made harbor tea over that sort of thing… Also, even when they don’t do tax returns on their property, they still generate a lot in sales taxes, and depending on the situation payroll taxes, too. And, contrary to what your aunt’s Facebook posts say, they get virtually no social benefits in return -- source link
