1. Una Contribución Fiscal de Miles de Millones de Dólares.
Un tema central en el debate es la sustancial cantidad de dinero que los inmigrantes indocumentados pagan anualmente en impuestos federales, estatales y locales. Las cifras mencionadas con frecuencia se sitúan en torno a los 100 mil millones de dólares, lo que subraya su significativo impacto económico.
- Undocumented immigrants paid nearly 97 billion in taxes in 2022 — about 9,00 each on average. Much of it went into programs they’ll never benefit from, like social security. They harvest crops, process food, build houses, care for children and elders. They pay in more and break the law less.
- Minor correction: "illegal" immigrants pay 100 billion a year in taxes. But they don't receive the benefits they pay for. Their taxes are almost pure profit for the government.
- Study says undocumented immigrants paid almost 100 billion in taxes immigrants paid nearly 100 billion in federal, state and local tax revenue in 2022 while many are shut out of the programs their taxes fundno ss, healthcare, welfare.
- Undocumented immigrants paid 96.7bn in federal, state and local taxes in 2022, including 59.4bn to the federal government, helping to fund social security and medicare, despite being excluded from most benefits.
- Ballpark estimate, undocumented immigrants paid about 1.5 trillion dollars in federal/state/local taxes since 1970 to the present. These non violent undocumented workers prop up our social security/medicare programs with billion per year and never receive the benefits. Gop imprisons them!
2. Subsidio a Programas Sociales sin Acceso a Beneficios.
Se enfatiza repetidamente que una gran parte de estos impuestos, especialmente las contribuciones de nómina, se destinan a financiar programas clave como el Seguro Social, Medicare y seguros de desempleo. Sin embargo, los contribuyentes indocumentados no son elegibles para recibir los beneficios de estos sistemas que ayudan a sostener.
- Undocumented immigrants also pay taxes and into social security from their paychecks, even though they'll never be able to collect benefits from it - which more than offsets situations like this.
- Undocumented immigrants paid 25.7 billion in social security taxes, 6.4 billion in medicare taxes, and 1.8 billion in unemployment insurance taxes in 2022. (itep).
- Trump’s immigration policy hurts the social security trust fund. It is estimated that in 2022 25.7 billion in social security payroll taxes were paid by undocumented immigrants. Money added to our trust -a huge benefit because they cannot collect benefits. Fact! deportations?
- The best part is immigrants pay social security taxes with a zero percent chance of ever collecting social security. They are literally funding our retirement plans for free. These people have more hate than brains.
- Literally zero undocumented immigrants were given social security and medicaid or medicare at any point in american history. Because while they pay into it they are not eligible to receive them because they don't have the proper documents you idiot.
3. Desmintiendo la Narrativa de la "Carga Pública".
Los datos sobre las contribuciones fiscales se presentan como una refutación directa a la idea de que los inmigrantes indocumentados representan una carga para la economía o los servicios públicos. Se argumenta que, por el contrario, son contribuyentes netos que aportan al sistema mucho más de lo que reciben, desafiando los estereotipos negativos.
- Us immigrants without citizenship bring in 100b in taxes each year without being able to access public services supported by those taxes, like medicaid and social security. The premise that immigrants steal from citizens is an ignorant, racist lie.
- Undocumented immigrants pay more in taxes than they take from programs. They’re the “makers” sustaining services, not the “takers” some label them as.
- Undocumented immigrants are not freeloaders, as some would have you believe. Their contributions fund programs that these workers are barred from accessing.
- Undocumented immigrants contribute over 100 billion in taxes every year and can’t access any of the federal benefits they pay for. Find a new scapegoat.
- People really don’t like when you pint out that undocumented immigrants pay more taxes than billionaires in the united states.
4. La Ironía del Uso de Datos Fiscales para la Deportación.
Varios comentarios señalan la contradicción inherente en el uso de los registros del IRS por parte de las autoridades para localizar y deportar a inmigrantes. Este hecho se presenta como una prueba irrefutable de que están pagando impuestos, lo que socava directamente la narrativa política de que evaden sus responsabilidades fiscales.
- Let this sink in for a moment. So undocumented immigrants are being targeted by their. Tax data. Which means they. Have been paying. Taxes. You know, the social contract payments that every motherfucking corporation weasels the fuck out of. The thing that fucking churches don't pay.
- The trump administration has been using immigrant's tax data to help find and deport them which is weird because according to maga immigrants don't pay taxes they're just given free money and healthcare paid for by the taxes of hardworking americans as soon as they cross the border.
- I thought illegal immigrants didn't pay taxes. Isn't that what maga republicans are always saying? don't maga republicans say undocumented are just here to get on welfare & not work; be lazy? why would they need info from the irs? could it possibly be because undocumented people pay taxes?
- Not the point, but the mere phrase "taxpayer information on suspected undocumented immigrants" should immediately shatter the myth that undocumented immigrants don't pay taxes.
- If you're using tax records of undocumented immigrants to find them and deporting them, then it was never about them not paying taxes.
