(TA News, Jan 20, 2022). Trump’s wall has had no effect on Illegal immigration except to cost about 100 billion dollars to the US economy.
Ms. Clinton noted that “It turns out the illegals were a major subsidy to the US! The undocumented immigrants actually paid an excessive part of the costs of public schools in the form of local and state taxes. Decreased immigration and the continued flight of wealthy kids to private schools have made it very hard to raise taxes for the underclasses that need public schools. The worst effect, however, has been on social security. Illegals who work paid that tax but could never collect .. in effect subsidizing older legal Americans!”
Clinton went on to advocate for the Employer Felony Law proposed by Senator Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. Under Senator Ocasio-Ortez’ law, anyone employing an illegal would be subject to a 500% tax on any wages paid. Repeat violations would include prison terms for any employer including corporate officers who fail to show due diligence. Corporations found guilty could lose any Federal tax deductions. Foreign based corporations could lose their license to do business in the US.
Meanwhile, despite Trump’s wall, the Secretary said studies by DSH show that the amnesty program passed by President O’Rourke has worked. “Second and third generation children of illegals are a net positive. ” Any costs for supporting their parents have been made up for by their children who became great and productive citizens. She concluded, “Overall, immigration is a net positive for our economy, though it may be hard for the GOP to take a long time perspective.”
