It’s an urban myth that “illegals are paid so well, yet many continue to get paid under the table and don’t pay taxes or medical bills…oh, and they get preferential treatment when applying for schools and we taxpayers should help pay for it!”
Rankandfile, that is simply not true. Illegals are not eligible for welfare and social services. People without insurance actually pay 3 times more for the same service than people with insurance. The problem occurs when they walk and don’t pay but many do pay.
Illegals pay taxes indirect through their spending but get no benefits in return.
