Joe versus Jose: Who'd You Rather Be?

[William Joyce]

Joe and Jose
You have two families: "Joe Legal" and "Jose Illegal". Both families have two parents, two children, and live in California.

Joe Legal works in construction, has a Social Security Number and makes $25.00 per hour with taxes deducted.

Jose Illegal also works in construction, has NO Social Security Number,
and gets paid $15.00 cash "under the table".

Ready? Now pay attention...

Joe Legal: $25.00 per hour x 40 hours = $1000.00 per week, or $52,000.00
per year. Now take 30% away for state and federal tax; Joe Legal now has
$31,231.00.

Jose Illegal: $15.00 per hour x 40 hours = $600.00 per week, or
$31,200.00 per year. Jose Illegal pays no taxes. Jose Illegal now has
$31,200.00.

Joe Legal pays medical and dental insurance with limited coverage for
his family at $600.00 per month, or $7,200.00 per year. Joe Legal now
has $24,031.00.

Jose Illegal has full medical and dental coverage through the state and
local clinics at a cost of $0.00 per year. Jose Illegal still has
$31,200.00.

Joe Legal makes too much money and is not eligible for food stamps or
welfare. Joe Legal pays $500.00 per month for food, or $6,000.00 per
year. Joe Legal now has $18,031.00.

Jose Illegal has no documented income and is eligible for food stamps
and welfare. Jose Illegal still has $31,200.00.

Joe Legal pays rent of $1,200.00 per month, or $14,400.00 per year. Joe
Legal now has $9,631.00.

Jose Illegal receives a $500.00 per month federal rent subsidy. Jose
Illegal pays $500.00 per month, or $6,000.00 per year. Jose Illegal
still has $ 31,200.00.

Joe Legal pays $200.00 per month, or $2,400.00 for insurance. Joe Legal
now has $7,231.00.

Jose Illegal says, "We don't need no stinkin' insurance!" and still has
$31,200.00.

Joe Legal has to make his $7,231.00 stretch to pay utilities, gasoline, etc.

Jose Illegal has to make his $31,200.00 stretch to pay utilities,
gasoline, and what he sends out of the country every month.

Joe Legal now works overtime on Saturdays or gets a part time job after
work.

Jose Illegal has nights and weekends off to enjoy with his family.

Joe Legal's and Jose Illegal's children both attend the same school. Joe
Legal pays for his children's lunches while Jose Illegal's children get
a government sponsored lunch. Jose Illegal's children have an after
school ESL program. Joe Legal's children go home.

Joe Legal and Jose Illegal both enjoy the same police and fire services,
but Joe paid for them and Jose did not pay.

You see how this works now?
If you vote for or support any politician that supports illegal aliens...

You are part of the problem!

It's way PAST time to take a stand for America and Americans!

 

[Sunni Man]

That's the 100% the truth WJ

I see it all of the time.

 

[Toronado3800]

Hey, who is this company who hired Jose and knowingly is paying him under the table? Some American needs to go to jail there!

Also, an illegal I know works for Pizza Hut with fake papers. He pays tons in taxes he can't recoup any of come tax time. Probably won't get the money back from Social Security either.

Jose Illegal has full medical and dental coverage through the state and
local clinics at a cost of $0.00 per year. Jose Illegal still has
$31,200.00.

So if Jose Illegal goes to Barnes Jewish down the street from me and says I'm illegal, treat me, do they call anyone?

Jose Illegal has no documented income and is eligible for food stamps
and welfare. Jose Illegal still has $31,200.00.

Let me get this straight, you don't need a Social Security number to sign up for these benefits?

Economics are the root of tons of problems. Take away the good American $'s and no one wants to come here.

 

[keee keee]

Also, an illegal I know works for Pizza Hut with fake papers. He pays tons in taxes he can't recoup any of come tax time. Probably won't get the money back from Social Security either. Neither will I, the system is said to be broke when my time to collect. He and his illegal family gets more from stolen services provided by the taxpayers than he ever pays into the system. Send all illegals back to their country of origin, unemployed Real Americans need the jobs these criminals are doing!!!!

 

[Angelhair]

Bottom line - it was THEIR choice to come to this country ILLEGALLY. No tears here nor violins. The beauty of this country is its open door policy - one can leave anytime they choose.

THE​

IS WAITING FOR YOUR PROTEST, "JOE LEGAL".​

 

[Saladin]

"Jose" is a Spanish name, Joyce. Just what kind of WN are you, referring to Native Americans with European names?

You're trying to tell us that they don't know to claim 9 exemptions so that they don't have to pay any withholding? Don't be a crapstick.
