Oh dear I seem to have upset the PC brigade.

They don't need 401k's. They are, perhaps, a product for the next generation rather than this.

Anybody can open a bank account; there's no requirement to be in the US legally to so do. And this is unlikely to change given the strength of the banking lobby and the profitability of providing banking services to such large numbers of people. Alternatively, take your paycheck to the local check-cashing service

The SSN is easy: you can buy one for $50! Sometimes they are totally false in which case the SSA will inform the employer after a year or so. The employee simply changes it (and possibly their name) with the employer's convince, or just moves on to the next job if they wish. Some SSNs are shared by many people under the same name. I've also come across people who've bought a more expensive SSN that is unique and appears under the system with their name. They've established full credit histories under it. Driving licenses are equally easy. You can have a nice copy that would fool any employer for $100, or a real one that's entered in the system and would keep a cop happy for a little more. State employees are not even particularly expensive to bribe.

Of course, if the authorities wanted to stop this, they have the resources available. It shouldn't take too much to search the SSA or IRS database and discover that there are 723 Jose Garcia's working simultaneously in 36 different states but all using the same SSN. But they wouldn't want to do that, would they!

ignorant rascism usually does.

In many states they can. Before Prop 200 was passed recently in AZ, they could claim the food stamp portion of GA and the free healthcare but not the cash portion. Prop 200 is currently being argued before the courts. I believe other states (CA) have tried this but it has been blocked by the courts.

And, of course, if they have a USC citizen child, they can claim for him/her regardless of their status.

Well I didn't say anything about LEGAL spics did I? So its hardly racism is it? I wasn't damning the whole race and you should have realised that.
Might be an idea to read posts a little more carefully before screaming RACISM mate!

fatbrit

You mean those who have considered issues before opening their big gobs and tried to separate them from their own petty prejudices? Or something else?

Leslie

What a complete fu cking waste of skin you are.

Leslie

PC? Not me. I have no problem calling you a pasty faced, ungrateful, racist, vapid, vacuous, immigrant slag.

Celsius

I'd like to see the reaction from the people you refer to by that racist term above when speaking to such people face to face!

Celsius

Don't hold back, will ya?

CarlM

Im thinking the word spics isnt helping your cause on this one!

fatbrit

[There's a nasty Americanism: using a stative verb in a continuous tense. You're going native, old boy!]

Leslie

Having lived and worked side by side with Mexican Americans and Mexican immigrants most of my life I can guarantee you this twat is not worthy of cleaning their toilets.

Grow up you sad miserable cow - I think your last avatar suited you down to the ground (and by the way my avatar is not of me-duh!) You've never got anything positive to say on this board about anyone so I really don't know where YOU get off.
As for Manc, well isn't that derrogatory name for somebody who comes from Manchester? Wouln't that be deemed 'racist' to some? Its exactly the same thing - taffs, scousers, spics what exactly is the problem here? get off your high horses the lot you.

My husband used to be a jockey and rode with many LEGAL spics who I got on very well with - you don't know what you're talking about as usual. Furthermore none of THEM had any problem with the S word they used to call EACH OTHER that.

As for cleaning their toilets - that your job was it?
