They generally haven't. Get your facts in order. Most illegals are employed [pay
payroll taxes], buy things [pay sales taxes], and rent housing somewhere or
another [their landlords pay property taxes]. Sounds a lot like your average
citizen's tax burden, doesn't it? They do all that, and they take the "lowest
rung" jobs that most citizens sneer at - like roofing, yardwork, and street
work.
