Now Wait Just a Minute

Jake blogged on the raids at Swift yesterday. I was just reading this piece on it at Immigration Watchdog, and something jumped off the page at me.

In many of the cases, victims found out that their identities had been stolen only after the Internal Revenue Service accused them of failing to pay income tax on their earnings at the Greeley plant.

But wait. The "immigrant rights" people jump up and down and turn blue in the face shouting that illegal aliens pay taxes that more than cover what they use in medical care, schooling for their children, infrastructure, etc. It seems bogus to me, given that you automatically have to exclude anyone who is being paid under the table.

Now we read that these illegal aliens who fraudulently used someone else's Social Security number didn't pay taxes on their earnings either.

Are there any illegal alien, open borders lovers out there who can explain to me exactly where all this illegal alien tax money is coming from to allegedly pay for the services they use?

Yeah. Didn't think so.
