Most of us grimace when filling out a W-2 for a new job. Illegals have to do so much more. Like stealing social security numbers. The cornerstone to an American identity. Which means leftists are right: illegal hombres do work hard (see INSTANT KARMA: Illegals Skip Work for #ADayWithoutImmigrants. They Get Fired! and Narrative BUSTED: Survey Shows a Quarter of Illegal Minors are Gangsters…). Maybe when Democrats say "illegals DO pay taxes" they really mean bad hombres make taxes more taxing for Americanos:

Most illegal immigrants who pay taxes have stolen someone else’s legal identity, and the IRS doesn’t do a very good job of letting those American citizens and legal immigrants know they’re being impersonated, the tax agency’s inspector general said in a new report released Thursday. The theft creates major problems for the American citizens and legal foreign workers whose identities are stolen, and who have to deal with explaining money they never earned.

That's putting it mildly. One never wants to deal with the IRS at any time. So imagine a taxpayer's consternation when the IRS asks them "How did you earn this?" and that poor schmuck has no way to explain it.

But the IRS only manages to identify half of the potentially 1.4 million people likely affected by the fraud in 2015, the Treasury Inspector General for Tax Administration said in its report.
