No, it's not the same. Immigrants can be deported, which is not the case for citizens by birthright. Additionally birthright citizens have not opted to be born in their country, however immigrants have made the choice to be in their country of destiny, so they are in a much weaker moral and legal position to justify tax evasion.
Not the same at all.

I have no slack for tax dodgers, especially when they are given the resources to fulfill their financial duty to their country that is providing them the life they live. If immigrants can move to a new country and are even willing to pay more in taxes by using ID they can not get refunds for in order to be here, then citizens that don't want to pay their taxes and cry about it wasnt their choice to be here should leave such a hostile environment and make room for those that want to be here and are willing to pay their due. Lucky for you there is a solution to your gripe, allow work authorization so immigrants can pay their taxes without fear of deportation to a 3rd country prison. Not much to do about my gripe with freeloading citizens who the rest of us end up paying more for. Even undocumented workers pay a higher percent of taxes than citizens in some 40 states, so I guess good thing they are here to help making up for those free loading citizens as well. See [0] above
