Many immigrants - and in our area they are nearly all illegals from Mexico are very versed in how to obtain every known government benefit that has ever been available since day 1. They know how to milk the system for everything it is worth. The local Mexican Holy Roller church has classes to teach them about the "entitlment programs". They do pay taxes and they do pay social security - not necessarily to their own account. Recently they found over 300 of them in our local area that were all using the same social security number. I guess in a way this is good because they are pumping money into the system that they will never be able to get back.
