Is it ok to be white?

[Fuzzy Necromancer]

It is disingenuous to say they are:

1. Undocumented - if they were here within the laws of the land they would have documents. Don't act like illegal immigrants aren't a legal term. As someone who went through a documented immigration process and was a legal resident alien for some 13 years it's offensive and just plain wrong.

2. Just because they pay some unavoidable sales taxes does not mean they are paying their income taxes or other taxes/fees. They are often driving without valid licenses or insurance (aka, illegally as just about every state requires a level of cover), can't be paying their salary based contributions as they are employed illegally or self-employed and NOT paying the due taxes (let alone any locally required licensing or certifications), and will not be paying their taxes to an IRS without a social security number that they also don't have.

You need to educate yourself. There are many "illegal immigrants" who DO pay income tax because they have employers who look the other way right up until they get injured, then they report them to the authorities so they can't claim workman's comp. There was a whole NPR special about it. Do you want me to to give you some links?
