Liberals pretend like they don't know illegal aliens use benefits. But they do, we all know it, and many of us have seen it. I know of a business in Portland that literally uses a food card to buy product at Walmart to resell. 100% profit, yay!

It's a fucking joke.

Could have been taxed at California socialism rates!

Mexicans are now doing great in the Trump economy. Americans would be doing so incredibly better were it not for opioids, meth, and unlawful alien nationals and the incredibly Chinese national landlords, eating their breakfast, lunches, and dinners and occupying every inch of available housing for Americans in their own Homeland. So disgusted by that.

With all the third world immigrants flooding America, wealth is leaving America at an alarming rate. If one adds up all the remittances by Indians, Chinese, Filipinos, Mexicans, and many others, it’s about $300 billion a year leaving America. That’s huge.

Funny how California taxes everything else except remittances leaving the state. Federal government isn't much better.

The electronic transfer companies like Western Union, RIA and others are making mint, charging around 10% per transfer.

Fast and Furious also transferred a LOT of money to Mexico.

Jihadists are taking over the cartels, making everything more brutal and deadly.

Good thing remittances keep funding cartel economies.

I would be content to let special forces take out all the cartels. Let the Mexican people decide their own fate.

Obama armed, financed, and created the cartels with Fast and Furious - so we already invaded them, technically, we just let evil traitors do it for evil stuff.

Very dark stain on our nation, imo. Holder belongs in jail.

Transfer to a crypto currency is also an option to further hide money transfers.

A former friend of mine admitted to being an illegal alien, along with the rest of his family. He sends most of his paycheck back to what family he has left in Mexico. I asked him why he sent them money and he said they would verbally assault him, and harass him if he didn't send it.

These are not good people being sent money. They're freeloaders that don't do shit in Mexico and bully their own family to support them.

He was already caught when he told me. I stopped talking to him shortly after and then I never heard from him again.

I've seen personally Polish migrants do it. They come here. Most don't learn the language, or culture. Colonate. Or attempt to conquer. And only shop at Polish stores here. "Their community". Send the money back overseas to Poland. All countries' immigrants take their turns raping America with this formula, per say.

States like Calif want to egregiously tax a Constitutional right like purchasing ammo but refuse to tax money transfers that leave the country.

Tax it at 30% like they want to do with ammo and you'd see a lot of slow down until they could find another loophole to exploit.

It's easy to send money home at minimum wage when welfare is raising your 4 kids. I'm a professional with an income just south of 6 figures. There is no way in hell I have the money to raise 4 kids and send money to Mexico every month.

Surely it is better to consider consult gender studies majors than consider economic implications.

Do socialists not realize they can try to tax/pilfer all those billions? How is the IRS not all over this?

Add that to the billions of dollars they send back in drug money.

36 billion removed from America's economy and 36 billion the IRS/Government can't tax. Funny how that works, huh?

If the person sending it is not here legally, they should cover all the government benefits which were stolen and on top of that tax them like the same as people here legally.

How do they know this? Some people want to tax these transfers but how are they even visible?
