gwalchmai Posted January 9, 2019 Share Posted January 9, 2019 From The Grouchy Old Cripple in ATL What Trump Should Say January 8, 2019 I’ve been sent the following by many people over the years. Just recently, Ron sent it to me. Trump should use it in tonight’s speech. There are 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 and emergency hospitals 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, WIC 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. José Illegal still has $ 31,200.00. Joe Legal pays $200.00 per month, or $2,400.00 for car insurance. Some of that is uninsured motorist 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.. If we started taxing the remittances that all of the Jose Illegals send back to Mexico and other Latin America countries every month we could pay for the freaking wall. – GOC 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 elementary 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. Now, when they reach college age, Joe Legal’s kids may not get into a State School and may not qualify for scholarships, grants or other tuition help, even though Joe has been paying for State Schools through his taxes, while Jose Illegal’s kids “go to the head of the class” because they are a minority. Joe Legal and Jose Illegal both enjoy the same police and fire services, but Joe paid for them and Jose did not pay. Do you get it, now? This is what Schmuck Schumer and Speaker Blinky are for. They think illegals are more important than American citizens. Unfortunately, many American voters feel this way as well. What a shame! --------------------- Yeah, the numbers may not be perfect but I agree with the idea. 3 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Huaco Kid Posted January 10, 2019 Share Posted January 10, 2019 I like what he's saying right now. Everyone is twisting into tight anxious knots because the government has been ground to a halt and nothing is getting accomplished. Magnificent, I say. When Obama was president, I voted for the government to be grounded to a halt and for nothing to get accomplished. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No money for anyone. This crap would be resolved with extreme efficiency. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
