ThreePointTakedown Posted April 5 Share Posted April 5 1 hour ago, Offthemat said: You are falling for garbage journalism and data. A quick explanation: Illegals work for cheaper wages than legal workers, therefore any collections from their wages are less than what would be paid by workers making higher wages. There are many programs that allow illegals to receive benefits, and many have work-arounds that enable them to collect benefits dishonestly. As for jobs Americans won’t do, a study done a few years ago showed that not one single job category was filled by more illegals than legals. Not one. What is factually correct is that their presence and their occupation in the workforce, is detrimental to the strength of the economy, and the wages of legal lower and middle wage workers. They may be beneficial to the chamber of commerce, but they are a net drain on the country. Your sources? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So you don't think we should trust the department that is suppose to keep track of all these numbers? Please point me to a more reliable source and we can discuss the bias/unbias nature of that info? But to simply say that you don't trust it without offering a reason (because the mayor could have a political reason to craft a different narrative despite the numbers not saying what you want them to say), smacks of your fear that the info might actually be legit and it runs counter to the idea you have in your head.
