What taxes do illegals pay when they have no social security number? In my experience I have seen them come here and not even try to learn the language but it is getting so we are told to learn their language. I have seen some if not most who live multiple families in one home and send most their money back to Mexico. I have seen many of them buy guns and electronics and stuff to send back home. If they want to come here and live then they should want to become Americans and disown their former country if it is so bad there. They should learn our language and work to become citizens and stop flying the Mexican flag above the American flag. I am of German and Irish descent and do not hold that above being American nor fly any other flag. As far as government hand outs I feel illegals do not deserve any help from our government. Any families who might have been split because of the border changing way back then have long since died out so if they are coming here to unite with families they are only using that as an excuse to come here and are probably very distant family members or families who originally came here illegal as well.
