I just want to know, for those of you who say stop illegal immigration, can you tell me how they are directly affecting you negatively in your everyday life?
"I read somewhere that one other thing that illegals that have jobs that are not under the table do is to claim a large number of dependants. That way no federal income tax is withheld. They have fake social security numbers and don't file income tax returns.
It also seems to me that illegals are drains on school systems. The schools end up having to hire language teachers and other teachers to get the kids up to where they are supposed to be.
I read a story last year about a town in south jersey that was having a big problem with illegals. The town was a farming town ( I know that doesn't sound right for NJ, but we do have farms ). Anyway, the farms in the town hire illegals for the summer. These are illegals that are paid under the table, have no proper id, driver's licenses, etc. So apparently this town was having a large problem with stolen cars. The illegals would just steal cars. If pulled over, they would just run. They would also get in accidents and run. So a lot of towns people were getting screwed when they would get hit by one of these illegals."
