Propaganda that ignores the benefit to the economy provided by low wage immigrants

He used information from F.A.I.R., which is an anti immigration source founded by a white nationalist named John Tanton.

This is what Republicans had testifying to congress about immigration.

Prepared Testimony of Steven A. Camarota
Director of Research
Center for Immigration Studies

The Center for Immigration Studies (CIS) is an American anti-immigration think tank. It favors far lower immigration numbers and produces analyses to further those views. The CIS was founded by historian Otis L. Graham alongside eugenicist and white nationalist John Tanton in 1985 as a spin-off of the Federation for American Immigration Reform (FAIR).

FAIR testified under oath before Congress…trust the science.

FAIR is an anti-immigrant organization that publishes propaganda founded by a white nationalist. There is no science to trust.

The Federation for American Immigration Reform (FAIR) is a nonprofit, anti-immigration organization in the United States. The group publishes position papers, organizes events, and runs campaigns in order to advocate for changes in U.S. immigration policy. The Southern Poverty Law Center classifies FAIR as a hate group with ties to white supremacist groups.

FAIR was founded in 1979 by Michigan surgeon and white nationalist John Tanton.

They get/got free food, free housing, free healthcare, free education, etc. That is what we call "freeloading".

No they don't. But billionaires get free money and far more free money than you imagine illegal immigrants get.

Incorrect. When Democrats proposed making the top percentile pay their fair share which would raise additional revenue, the top percentile began propagandizing and you idiots ran with it, calling democrats socialists and Marxists.

Nope

Tax Payments by Undocumented Immigrants​

Key Findings​

• Undocumented immigrants paid $96.7 billion in federal, state, and local taxes in 2022. Most of that amount, $59.4 billion, was paid to the federal government while the remaining $37.3 billion was paid to state and local governments.
• Undocumented immigrants paid federal, state, and local taxes of $8,889 per person in 2022. In other words, for every 1 million undocumented immigrants who reside in the country, public services receive $8.9 billion in additional tax revenue.
• More than a third of the tax dollars paid by undocumented immigrants go toward payroll taxes dedicated to funding programs that these workers are barred from accessing. Undocumented immigrants paid $25.7 billion in Social Security taxes, $6.4 billion in Medicare taxes, and $1.8 billion in unemployment insurance taxes in 2022.
• At the state and local levels, slightly less than half (46 percent, or $15.1 billion) of the tax payments made by undocumented immigrants are through sales and excise taxes levied on their purchases. Most other payments are made through property taxes, such as those levied on homeowners and renters (31 percent, or $10.4 billion), or through personal and business income taxes (21 percent, or $7.0 billion).
• Six states raised more than $1 billion each in tax revenue from undocumented immigrants living within their borders. Those states are California ($8.5 billion), Texas ($4.9 billion), New York ($3.1 billion), Florida ($1.8 billion), Illinois ($1.5 billion), and New Jersey ($1.3 billion).
• In a large majority of states (40), undocumented immigrants pay higher state and local tax rates than the top 1 percent of households living within their borders.
• Income tax payments by undocumented immigrants are affected by laws that require them to pay more than otherwise similarly situated U.S. citizens. Undocumented immigrants are often barred from receiving meaningful tax credits and sometimes do not claim refunds they are owed due to lack of awareness, concern about their immigration status, or insufficient access to tax preparation assistance.
• 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. Under a scenario where work authorization is provided to all current undocumented immigrants, their tax contributions would rise by $40.2 billion per year to $136.9 billion. Most of the new revenue raised in this scenario ($33.1 billion) would flow to the federal government while the remainder ($7.1 billion) would flow to states and localities.

When the top percentile is paying less in taxes than the middle class who actually do the work, the middle class are the ones being penalized, you stupid mf.

But you have the logic of MAGARETARDATION.

ITEP is a far-left leaning think tank, which of course means "no basis" to IQ2.

Even they say that the top 10% pay about 72% of the nation's taxes.

I got news / more pesky truth for you…All sane white people are white nationalists, we see the data, we know what an all white America would look like…we FANTASIZE about an all white America…Do you really think we want a dirtier, more dangerous, more taxpayer dependent, more divided America?
Now tell us…ITEP wrote some feel good bullshit…have they give testimony under oath to Congress to validate their numbers?

Except we are not doing anything. We are borrowing about 30% of what we spend.

Try that at home and see how long it lasts.

 

[HikerGuy83]

Incorrect. Try other sources besides FAIR and the Manhattan Institute. Sources not run by far right extremists.

Yeah....we'll use your silly left wing crazy sources.

Summary of the Latest Federal Income Tax Data, 2025 Update

New IRS data shows the US federal income tax system continues to be progressive as high-income taxpayers pay the highest average income tax rates. Average tax rates for all income groups remain lower after the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (TCJA).
