Illegals and Social Security
"The Senate voted yesterday to allow illegal aliens to collect Social Security benefits based on past illegal employment -- even if the job was obtained through forged or stolen documents." Story here.
I wonder if I got Mexican citizenship and snuck back across the border, I'd be able to collect my own Social Security?
Because my pension is from state teachers (STRS Ohio), I can't collect either my SS or the spousal part of my husband's. I think the NEA really ought to look into this, although I know it would rip out their liberal souls to do it. And yes, I'm well aware this happened under Reagan; that doesn't make it right to give criminals with forged IDs and SS numbers benefits and deny them to me.
Would almost serve 'em right if it was my SS number they stole! They couldn't get a dime.
Illegal immigration
Social Security
