  How are they paying though? That requires some kind of identification.

    Their employers pay taxes on their wages through their fake as numbers. They pay sales tax when they buy things from the store

    Perhaps not income taxes, but maybe taxes on goods and services, property taxes, etc? Can’t say for certain though.

      If you don’t have an SSN then you still need to pay income taxes via ITIN. You don’t want to be caught for Tax Fraud as an immigrant.

    In my opinion the costs are much higher to not integrate new peoples. Undocumented Immigrants provide a lot of the ingredients but take none of the pie. I’m not going to sit here and say cheap labor is acceptable, but there is a point where you have to admit we wouldn’t have nearly as many workers in less desirable employment fields if not for immigrants, even if wages were higher.
