This is from comment written in a article but looks real and interesting

JOE LEGAL vs. JOSE ILLEGAL
You have two families: "Joe Legal" and "Jose Illegal".
Both families have two parents, two children, and live in California .
Joe Legal works in construction, has a Social Security Number and makes
$25.00 per hour with taxes deducted.
Jose Illegal also works in construction, has NO Social Security Number,
And gets paid $15.00 cash "under the table".
Ready? Now pay attention....
Joe Legal: $25.00 per hour x 40 hours = $1000.00 per week, or $52,000.00
Per year. Now take 30% away for state and federal tax; Joe Legal now has
$31,231.00.
Jose Illegal: $15.00 per hour x 40 hours = $600.00 per week, or
$31,200.00 per year. Jose Illegal pays no taxes. Jose Illegal now has
$31,200.00.
Joe Legal pays medical and dental insurance with limited coverage for
His family at $600.00 per month, or $7,200.00 per year. Joe Legal now
Has $24,031.00.
Jose Illegal has full medical and dental coverage through the state and
Local clinics at a cost of $0.00 per year. Jose Illegal still has
$31,200.00.
Joe Legal makes too much money and is not eligible for food stamps or
Welfare. Joe Legal pays $500.00 per month for food, or $6,000.00 per
Year. Joe Legal now has $18,031.00.
Jose Illegal has no documented income and is eligible for food stamps
And welfare. Jose Illegal still has $31,200.00.
Joe Legal pays rent of $1,200.00 per month, or $14,400.00 per year. Joe
Legal now has $9,631.00.
Jose Illegal receives a $500.00 per month federal rent subsidy. Jose
Illegal pays out that $500.00 per month, or $6,000.00 per year. Jose
Illegal
Still has $ 31,200.00.
Joe Legal pays $200.00 per month, or $2,400.00 for insurance. Joe Legal
Now has $7,231.00.
Jose Illegal says, "We don't need no stinkin' insurance!" and still has
$31,200..00.
Joe Legal has to make his $7,231.00 stretch to pay utilities, gasoline,
Etc.
Jose Illegal has to make his $31,200.00 stretch to pay utilities,
Gasoline, and what he sends out of the country every month.
Joe Legal now works overtime on Saturdays or gets a part time job after
Work.
Jose Illegal has nights and weekends off to enjoy with his family.
Joe Legal's and Jose Illegal's children both attend the same school. Joe
Legal pays for his children's lunches while Jose Illegal's children get
A government sponsored lunch. Jose Illegal's children have an after
School ESL program. Joe Legal's children go home.
Joe Legal and Jose Illegal both enjoy the same police and fire services,
But Joe paid for them and Jose did not pay.
Jose with his free tax payer entitlements makes $65,000.00 a year!
Do you get it, now?
If you vote for or support any politician that supports illegal Aliens...
You are part of the problem!
It's way PAST time to take a stand for America and Americans!
What are you waiting for?

i read this too and this is a very logical reasoning......but the undocumented people claim that they pay taxes...id like to hear their side of story as well

Joe and jose both want better life...so if jose illegal gets chance to change his last name...he is ready to pay tax, insurance and education but joe legal wants to supress him and jose illegal is not dumb too... without jose illegal, joe legal will get laid off...lol

Like the way we have to look at the both sides of the coin, look at the way how jose illegal lives his life and how joe legal does. Is the standard of living their life is the same, i don't think so. Since you've said that jose illegal do not pay the insurance for his car or health... Exactly, in this case if joe legal felt sick and went to visit doctor, his bill is fully covered by his insurance but does jose illegal's medical bill will be covered by the insurance, NOO?? FYI chanty399, how many people like jose illegal have seen who are surviving with food stamp. I did worked in a gas station too when i was in college but i have never seen any spanish with the food stamp card. In fact i've heard that Nepalese in California, who are a legal citizen work in cash and do survive in food stamp but i don't think any spanish out there with such kind of card. They always come with whole bunch of Cash in their pocket..   

Jose Illegal has full medical and dental coverage through the state and
Local clinics at a cost of $0.00 per year Where did you come up with that?? i just want to know which state provides fill dental and medical for Jose Illegal at $0.0??? Jose Illegal has nights and weekends off to enjoy with his family?? Again this is just not cutting it....where is the evidence to suggest that jose illegal has nights and weekends off?? i have seen jose illegals working 7 days a week...seriously! Jose Illegal has no documented income and is eligible for food stamps
And welfare. Jose Illegal still has $31,200.00.that is a bull shit statement, without any document you cannot get any food stamps and welfare. This is only true if Jose Illegals have a US citizen child.

Assuming Joe Illegal gets paid $15 an hour, following are just some of the flaws in Chanty's logic:

Joe Legal gets some of the money back through tax refund. Did you account for that?

Joe legal is getting better medical services because he has insurance, illegal is not.

You say: Jose Illegal has full medical and dental coverage through the state, I say: ER visit is hardly coverage. State coverage meaning Medicaid. Medicaid does not cover people who do not have legal status. Clinic visit will only fix your minimum problem.

Jose Illegal receives a $500.00 per month federal rent subsidy. Again you have to show proof of residency to qualify for rent subsidy.

Jose Illegal has no documented income and is eligible for food stamps and welfare. Refer to my point above about residency.

Jose Illegal has nights and weekends off to enjoy with his family. How many people do you know who are illegal and they have their family here in the same country. The family is back home waiting for illegal to send the money.

Moreover, Joe illegal is charged high amount of rent because the ladlord knows he can get away with it. Joe illegal lives in constant fear that the authorities can catch him anytime. Get rid of illegals and you will be paying astronomical amounts for fruts and vegetables. Because of them, you, me and the rest of America have a great life.

Beat that!

Most of my arguments were already covered by others. Sorry, posted them without reading others' point of view.

Agree with meera and Cylegend (can't believe)

I gotta get hold of this guy. I used to know many illegal friends who never had those things he claims. Maybe we can get hold of him and he can tell them where they can get food stamp, full medical/dental coverage and federal rent subsidy. Heck, I'd give up my legal status if this were true.Maybe Joe Legal should consider doing that and know what the difference is.

This shows the southern ignorance on this matter. Sad thing is this kind of propaganda leads to the racial tension that is now seen in Australia (remember beating up south asian kids) and South Africa.

 

Don't blame JOE OR JOSE.  Lets suppose JOSHI LEGAL wants to hire a contractor, who has A better chance to get hired, JOE OR JOSE.  Of course, JOSE.  JOSHI wants to save some money and he doesn't care about anything else beside benefits he would get for himself. IF JOSHI hires JOE, THERE WOULD BE NO JOSE. So, blame JOSHI LEGAL. 

wa wa wa kiddo agrees finally... crixus joins spartacus...... SIS exactly, blame the core of capitalism "greed." companies/individuals want more profit regardless of the risk involved in hiring illegal immigrants. Legal immigrant on the other hand don't want to do what illegals are doing at the same wage. it's a viscious circle.

Well I don't know about illegal doing this.
But there are many legal DV nepalese doing this. They work 16 hours a day, but still take food stamps for their US born babies. I hate this.

nice job chanty399, copy paste from yahoo comment.......

Even a copy and paste: Still good , sarcastic and the comparisons are realistic. 

12 barsha ramayan padhayo sita kaski joi.

Tetro comments lekhyo arule pheri  ayera bhanchha, "sarcastic and the comparisons are realistic."

By the way the dude never claimed it was his original, he clearly says, "This is from comment written in a article but looks real and interesting."

Joe Legal has choices while Jose Illegal does not. If Joe is so jealous of Jose, he can simply cancel all his medical/dental insurance and get into Jose's shoes and enjoy all the services. The writer of the original post must be smoking Mary Jane Illegal to come up with such bull.

This is a total B.S. this is written by some racist fools years ago. They are trying to fool America by saying illegals get all the benefits while legal suffer.  There is no free state medical facility for illegals. For food stamps they see if you're legal resident or not. Yes they can go into emergency, but come on thats when  you get into accident or about to die. Illegals are not the problems but lazy and some are second generation welfare couch vegetables. here are some more lines.

my point is to make this Jose illegal a Joe legal. you cant stop Jose to come to america but what you can do to no let this imbalance happen is make JOSE JOE. this way Jose is happy coz he has a hariyo patta and goverment can tax Jose.
aafu pani khau aru lai pani khwau.

If you put this way: X and Y both are legal but change the scenario and find out the result. Say Y works part time over the table and full time under the table, Maybe 3-4 children. 

what is this A B C D X Y Z crap....

I am pretty sure illegal can get housing and food stamp only if they have kids born in USA. The parents won't be eligible but parents can file housing,food stamp, and medical for their children citing low income. This country treats illegal and legal kids same as long as all of them are born in USA , there are plenty of loopholes. Here is one scenario, if the illegal mom is giving birth to the baby in USA, the three days costs will be foot by government because the baby is citizen.That is what happens in California and Arizona.
