>>5. Most illegals do not pay income taxes.
Are you serious???? Do you know what's the ITIN http://www.irs.gov/individuals/article/0,,id=96287 ,00.html#what ???
The IRS knows about this "IRS issues ITINs to individuals who are required to have a U.S. taxpayer identification number but who do not have, and are not eligible to obtain a Social Security Number (SSN)"
That for definition is an illegal immigrant!!! We pay taxes the same way you do and we don't have the same rights that you do.
> Why didn't they immigrate legally like millions of others have?
Because I don have that choice!! I try and I got rejected
> Why do they get to take jobs that would otherwise be high-paying jobs for legal residents? Do they realize if they were legal, they would get higher wages?
Like what? like manufacture jobs on factories , picking up fruit on the fields?? we have a globalized world and if you force companies to hire legal workers and pay them let's say 15 dollars an hour for the cheap labor that illegal immigrants do, believe thousand of companies will move to China where they can even pay less than the illegal immigrants get here , and there will be no more manufacture or farm work for legal or illegal workers here in the USA.
I don't say that a complete open border is the solution, but some people think that is easy to get here to the US!! And no a single terrorist from 9/11 came from Mexico!
What you don't understand is that "we" don't have any other choice, I'm a college graduated , I have a computer sciences degree from a 5 year university and I can't even apply to a H-1 visa, I had a job in Mexico but I was getting 400 dollars a month!!! That's the reason I came here. I pay taxes just as you do and I don't have the same rights as you do.
Do you really think that a wall is going to solve this problem??? I'm an illegal immigrant from Mexico (weird right....!) and i didn't jump any wall I came here to the US legally with a tourist visa just as many people, even the immigration officer on the airport told me "Welcome to America" the fact that all illegal immigrans jump the border it's not true. Many of illegal inmigrant cross the border with "coyotes" whith the help of corrupt people on the border check points.
Now let's say that you built the wall, and the wall works!!! , guess what?? you are going to have to built another one on the border with Canada because mexicans can travel to Canada with out visa and then you will have the same problem but in the other side!!
I'm an illegal immigrant and I've never used your health care the only public service that I use is the library, I hope that doesn't bother you!, but I pay taxes with my itin http://www.irs.gov/individuals/article/0,,id=96287 ,00.html#what number even when I pay taxes I can't apply for many things!
