We often hear about how the poor Illegal Aliens pay taxes and don’t get benefits. But what’s the truth?
Everyone pays taxes, the question is which taxes. Illegal Aliens pay sales taxes, gasoline taxes, road tolls, energy taxes, utility taxes, and licensing taxes (assuming they own the vehicles we see themn driving).
No one in the list of taxes do we see them paying Income Taxes. Why? because they are here illegally. They don’t have a right to work in the U.S. or a Social Security Card/Number with witch to pay income taxes. Any work done by an Illegal Alien is illegal.
Now if by some chane, an Illegal Alien is paying income tax it can only mean one thing. They have commited Identity theft, a Crime Punnishable by Law.
Now that we have straightened out the straw man, here is an excerpt from an email to think about.
——————————————–
Mom was a homemaker and Dad worked all his life and paid into SS. Dad has passed away and now Mom can barely make ends meet. While the possible “illegal” alien in front of her at the grocery store buys the name brands, Mom goes for the generic brands, and day old breads. She doesn’t have out of state calling on her phone, because she can’t afford it and shops at the thrift shops and dollar stores. She considers having a pizza delivered once a week “eating out”.
She grew up during the depression, watched her husband go overseas to fight in WW II a year after their marriage, and then they went on to raise, feed and clothe 5 children, struggling to pay tuition for parochial schools.
The Senate voted this week to allow “illegal” aliens access to Social Security benefits. I’m sorry, but how can the Senate justify this slapin the face to born and bred, or naturalized citizens. It is already impossible to live on Social Security alone. If they give benefits to “illegal” aliens who have never contributed, where does that leave us that have paid into Social Security all our working lives?
Attached is an opportunity to sign a petition that requires citizenship for eligibility to receive Social services. If you do not wish to sign the petition yourself, please forward on to anyone you think might be interested.
PETITION FOR: President Bush Mr. President: The petition below is a protest against the recent vote of the senate which was to allow illegal aliens access to our social security! We demand that you and all congressional representatives require citizenship for anyone to be eligible for social services in the United States.
