A Post From The Darkside

Uh, I'm not responsible for the grammar. . .

Blogs for Bush: The White House Of The Blogosphere: "Illegals Granted Social Security
By Paul Lewis at 02:12 AM

What in the heck was the Democrats thinking

'Instead of protecting the retirement security of Americans who are earning an honest living and abiding by the laws of our country, Debbie Stabenow sided with people who are here illegally and abuse our Social Security system,' Oakland County, Mich., Sheriff Michael Bouchard said in a press release. 'Allowing illegal immigrants to use their illegal work history as credit towards receiving Social Security benefits shows that Debbie Stabenow has forgotten who she is supposed to be working for in the U.S. Senate.'


Up to $345 billion, or even more could be siphoned from the Social Security trust fund over the next couple of decades, mostly to pay benefits to Mexican citizens who worked illegally in the United States.

I check my Social Security reports often, to make sure nothing has been added. Like unexpected income from a job in Texas, while I am in working Ohio. I would advise that you do the same."

Interesting assertion but no links to back-up numbers. So how much does Social Security get paid by illegals? I don't think you can draw anything out without paying something in, but I'm not anywhere near an authority in that area. Feedback? Help.
