Undocument Workers Pay More Taxes Than You May Think

[What Would Jesus Do?]

Tax Payments by Undocumented Immigrants

Undocumented immigrants paid $96.7 billion in federal, state, and local taxes in 2022. Providing access to work authorization for undocumented immigrants would increase their tax contributions both because their wages would rise and because their rates of tax compliance would increase.

Someone has the costs at 150 billion so net loss. What happens when they turn 65 having paid nothing into the system? It costs real money to live in America. They need to pay their fair share or something like that…

Who cares! They came here illegally and should be sent back to wherever they came from.

Come here legally or get deported when caught

"Someone"?

Is that like "Many people say..."?

You're just mocking the MAGAs, right?

I don’t get this. The whole point here is that they are “paying into the system”.

Fact check: How much does illegal immigration cost? Not nearly as much as Trump claims.

"Frankly absurd," said one immigration policy expert of Trump's false claims that illegal immigration costs the U.S. more than $200 billion per year.

Many of them do pay and also pay into SS which they will never benefit them. Many have bogus SS#s and their jobs collect taxes so the govt still gets their share.

I’d be interested to see this on a per capita basis and compared to the MAGA cucks living on welfare and total disability payments.

54 billion after taxes collected. Seems like a losing proposition to me.
