CHEAP LABOR MY ARMPIT

An October report by the Washington Post exposed illegal aliens sending $25 billion in cash back to Mexico annually. Another $25 billion transfers to Central and South America. An additional $16 billion U.S. dollars vanish into Asia annually.

Cash remittances sent back to immigrant countries bleed the United States into serious financial consequences. We suffer a $700 billion annual trade deficit from over 3.1 million jobs off-shored and out-sourced—compliments of your U.S. Congress with their wonderful H-1B, H-2B and L-1 visas giveaways.

As to cash draining out of the United States, illegals earned that money by working under the table to cheat the IRS. Every working American citizen must pay the difference. Employers paid money out, but didn’t record it, so they could hide their profits. That’s money illegals made taking jobs from America’s middle class workers.

Bear-Stearns reported last year that illegal aliens in the United States comprise the second largest underground economy in the world. They do not pay $301 billion in IRS income taxes annually. You pay the difference.

Politicians and corporate America call such illegality “cheap labor” or the presidential definition, “They do the jobs Americans won’t do.” What Bush doesn’t tell you is, “Illegal aliens work at slave wages, which no American could work to support a family, pay a mortgage, run a car or buy food.”

Let’s examine the oxymoron of “cheap labor” as it applies to our new 20 million person slave working class.

For example, take an average illegal alien with his wife and five kids. He works for $6.00 an hour. At that wage, with six dependents, he pays no income tax even if he presented a counterfeit social security card. But at the end of the year, if he files an income tax return, he receives “earned income credit” up to $3,200.00 free.

His “anchor baby” children each received free hospital care at $5,000.00 per birth which totals $25,000.00 of a hospital’s funds. Since illegals don’t pay, hospitals pass the costs on to you in higher rates. Illegal children also receive K-12 education at your expense. Some quick math shows one of his children’s schooling at 13 years X’s $7,000.00 per year equals $91,000.00. By including all five kids, you’re paying out $364,000.00 in taxes to school children from another country. When you add up free breakfasts and lunches at $5.00 per meal that equals 180 school days X’s $10.00 for two meals daily, that equals $1,800.00 X’s five kids equals $9,000.00 in food.

When you multiply just the schooling for the 380,000 anchor babies annually, it turns out that “cheap labor” costs you, the American taxpayer, $34.5 billion annually to educate them. It costs you $1.9 billion to pay for their hospital births each year. These calculations take into account any taxes they may pay if they do work on the books. According to the Center for Immigration Studies, an illegal alien during his lifetime while working in the USA will create a net drain on the American taxpayer of $55,000.00. In a more recent report, Robert Rector of the Heritage Foundation reported that cost at $100,000.00.

Because of his poverty and children, an illegal alien qualifies for Section 8 housing and subsidized rent. He and his wife qualify for food stamps and you can bet they draw them.

Additionally, his wife, kids and he qualify for a lifetime of free medical care. If his children are premature or suffer from Downs Syndrome or suffer heart problems, you pay hundreds of thousands of dollars in hospitals costs. That’s why 86 hospitals in California bankrupted out of service in the past five years.

The average illegal kid requires a bilingual teacher at a cost of $9,200.00 a year X’s five kids equals $46,000.00 annually, but, of course, the kids don’t want to learn English in enclaved barrios such as Chicago, Houston and Los Angeles. They could care less! Your kids suffer degraded educational experiences. Current estimates show over 3.1 million illegal alien children attending U.S. schools. Their parents Pedro and Juanita qualify for financial relief from energy bills. If they become disabled, they may qualify for Social Security Income.

To give you a sobering, if not astonishing idea of what illegals working in our country costs us, Lou Dobbs at CNN reported on his program, Saturday, November 11, 2006, education for illegals in New York cost taxpayers $5.0 billion annually while California’s illegal population, now over 3.1 million; costs them $6.0 billion annually.

Millions of illegals drive cars in America. Despite the lack of a driver’s license, car insurance, or accident insurance, when they suffer an accident from driving illegally and drunk, you pay for everything. The cost in wrecked American lives: tens of thousands! Cost of repairs paid by you: billions of dollars! Costs to our hospitals: billions of dollars!

When you add in the $1.6 billion you pay in federal funds to pay for the 618,000 convicted illegal aliens sitting in our state and federal prisons, you can’t define them as “cheap labor” much longer. You can’t define them as “slave labor” either. You may define their lives as “free room and board” provided by you.

When you look at the millions of American working poor now standing in the food stamp and unemployment lines, billions of your hard earned dollars pay for their welfare and medical payments--the real meaning of illegal aliens working the jobs that “Americans won’t do” brings a whole new understanding to “cheap labor.”

Looking further, if you add up all the graffiti, trash pickup, $140 billion in drugs being distributed by illegals, drug rehab, Americans being killed by illegals and a host of other consequences—“cheap labor” my armpit!

When any entity feeds off another being, it becomes a parasite. Today, Mexico, Asia, Central and South America devour the United States like parasites. Worse, our elected “parasites” in Washington, DC make it possible by ignoring our immigration laws. They allow illegal “parasites” to suck the financial lifeblood out of our country while the illegals destroy our educational, medical, prison, language and cultural integrity.

This Tuesday, vote all incumbents out of office that have shown their refusal to uphold the U.S. Constitution. That’s just about all of them!
