Except illegal immigrants arent paying into social security... so whats your point
- ethbr1 1y agoIllegal immigrants aren't getting social security either, but are paying into sales tax. Which means they're doing their part to support 30% of state budgets, in addition to the businesses they're working for who are paying their own taxes.
- DontchaKnowit 1y agoyeah but the parent commenter was specifically talking about social security, illegal immigrants aren't contributing to social security
- ethbr1 1y agoThat if the economy craters, because suddenly population growth isn't buttressed by immigration (legal or illegal), then both social security and welfare rapidly become unfundable, and the poor suffer more than billionaires. Ergo, poor people should be in favor of any sort of immigration.
