    Pay Attention


    You have two families: "Joe Legal" and "Jose Illegal". Both families
    have two parents, two children, and live in Indiana.

    Joe Legal works in construction, has a Social Security Number and
    makes $25 per hour with taxes deducted. Jose Illegal also works in
    construction, has NO Social Security Number, and gets paid $15 cash
    "under the table".

    Ready? Now pay attention...

    Joe Legal: $25.00 per hour x 40 hours = $1000 per week, or $52,000 per
    year. Now take 30% away for state and federal tax, so henow
    has $31,231. Jose Illegal: $15 per hour x 40 hours = $600 per week,
    or $31,200 per year and pays no taxes, so still has $31,200.

    Joe Legal pays medical and dental insurance with limited coverage
    for his family at $600 per month, or $7,200 per year and now has
    $24,031. Jose Illegal has full medical and dental coverage through the
    state and local clinics at a cost of $0 per year and still has $31,200.

    Joe Legal makes too much money and is not eligible for food
    stamps or welfare, so he pays $500.00 per month for food, or $6,000
    per year and 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.

    Joe Legal pays rent of $1,200 per month, or $14,400 per year and now
    has $9,631. Jose Illegal receives a $500 per month federal rent
    subsidy, so he pays $500 per month, or $6,000 per year and still has
    $31,200.

    Joe Legal pays $200 per month, or $2,400 for insurance and now has
    $7,231. Jose Illegal says, "We don't need no stinkin' insurance!" and
    still has $31,200.

    Joe Legal has to make his $7,231 stretch to pay utilities,
    gasoline, etc. Jose Illegal has to make his $31,200 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 Legal paid for them and Jose Illegal did not pay.

    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!
