Wages for an ILLEGAL... NOT BAD but who's paying the real wage?

There is no such thing as "cheap labor."

Take, for example, an illegal Mexican who sneaks in here with his wife and five children.

He takes a job for five or six dollars an hour.

At that wage with six dependents he pays no income tax, yet at the end of the year if he files income tax he gets an "earned income credit" of up to $3,200 free. In Los Angeles County the tax-free Mexican underground economy is calculated to be more than $2 BILLION per year.

He qualifies for Section 8 housing and subsidized rent. @ Approximately $1,000/month = $12,000/year

He qualifies for food stamps. @ Approximately $100/week = $5,200

He qualifies for free (no deductible, no co-pay) health care. @ Approximately $900/month = $10,800/year. 1 in 5 births in Los Angeles are from illegals paid for by LEGALS.

His children get free breakfasts and lunches at school. @ Approximately $5.00/day for 200 days = $1,000

He requires bilingual teachers and books. @ Approximately $27,500/teacher X 5 = $137,500

He qualifies for relief from high energy bills. @ Approximately $125/month electric and water = $1,500

If they are or become, aged, blind or disabled they qualify for SSI. @ Approximately $600/month = $7,200

Once qualified for SSI they can qualify for medicare. @ Approximately $9,600/year

He doesn't have to worry about car insurance, life insurance, or homeowners insurance.

Taxpayers provide Spanish language signs, bulletins and printed material. @
Approximately $1,000,000 plus/year (federal cost)

He cannot be fired, harassed, or sued.

He and his family receive the equivalent of $20 to $30 an hour in benefits. @ Approximately $20/hr = $168,960 Working Americans are lucky to have $1 to $3 an hour left after paying their bills and his, if lucky. You clear Approximately $3.00/hr = $25,344 for the year and most
of that is gone due by the end of the year to daily expenses such as taxes both state and
federal, gas, up keep of house, and etc. Don't forget you are working for the federal government for several months out of the year.

They also pay for increased crime, graffiti, and trash cleanup. In Los Angeles graffiti abatement cost tax payers millions.

If he or a member of this family breaks the law and goes to jail, we have to pay for room, food and jailer. All this adds up to approximately $1,382,000/per plus a year, how many of you make or made this much a year tax free.
@38,000,000 illegal immigrants
x $1,382,000 = a HELL of ALOT of MONEY.
NO WONDER THEY ARE CROSSING THE BORDER BY THE
HUNDREDS. Sure more than I made a year after forty years of working and paying
taxes. I would take it at anytime.
All of this is at the taxpayers (YOUR) expense.
Cheap labor? YEAH RIGHT!"
