SOMEONE must stop these people pouring into our country. They are like any other group of people. Some are good and honest, while others are vicious and truly outlaws. If we need a military coup here in the United States, then I feel that is the best way now to take over command and close the border. It is unfortunate when good people must suffer due to the bad...but I do not see any Dems offering to fence off a huge portion of their property, install water, bathrooms, and homes for these people. The general population can no longer tolerate most of our tax money going for supplying illegals with necessities when we have CITIZENS in need. Its time for someone to do something drastic.
does MOST of the taxpayer money go to illegals?
Is this not like making a statement that most imprisoned haven really committed crimes so shut the jails down?
Where are the numbers to justify such claims or solutions?
We already have a border, and it has been DECREASING illegal crossings ALREADY, why suddenly is it not enough?
does MOST of the taxpayer money go to illegals?
Answers.
Trump says undocumented immigrants are an economic burden. They pay billions in taxes.
"Unauthorized immigrants paid more than $20 billion in income taxes in 2015. They also fund Medicare, Medicaid, and Social Security".
"One of the biggest misconceptions about undocumented immigrants is that they don’t pay any taxes. In his first address to Congress in 2017, President Donald Trump set the tone for his immigration agenda when he said immigration costs US taxpayers “billions of dollars a year". Two years later, he is still repeating that lie. In his State of the Union speech on Tuesday, he once again suggested that unauthorized immigrants are a burden to US taxpayers.

Fact check: How much does illegal immigration cost America? Not nearly as much as Trump claims.
"As President Donald Trump continued his weeks-long push for Congress to give him the funds he demanded for his border wall, he stressed a false claim about how much illegal immigration costs the country".

How do Undocumented Immigrants Pay Federal Taxes? An Explainer
"As Tax Day 2018 approaches, it is worth exploring a pressing question that is widely misunderstood: do undocumented immigrants pay federal taxes?
The short answer is yes. Many undocumented immigrants find ways to legally pay both federal income and payroll taxes even if they don’t have a Social Security number (which is normally required) and even if their income was earned by working illegally".

Undocumented immigrants quietly pay billions into Social Security and receive no benefits
"If all undocumented immigrants were deported today, next year’s Social Security trust funds would have approximately $13 billion less for benefit payouts. It’s a considerable loss of dollars, especially when it’s projected that the Social Security funds will be depleted by 2034".

Trump tells his big whopper lies. And some people believe it. While others post wild conspiracy theories that only a child should believe. But grown people in the internet age would rather remain ignorant and in the dark. Trying to find their way through a dark rabbit hole. When the truth is right in front of them in plain sight. If you follow the money, whether it be Democrat or Republican, you will find the truth.
The truth I think is part of the reason that Democrats fight for immigrants, Money. Billions paid into the system by immigrants. Just think what would happen if we lost all that money? And that's the truth of it. Trump want's you to believe his lies. He wants to build a wall that we don't need so when he goes out in 2020 he will have his great wall monument to himself.
This does help understand our screwed up tax system and illegal immigrants. It also reinforces the Presidents call for immigration reform as the IRS and Homeland Security laws are not compatible.
