Illegals getting money from stimulus package????

Why are they rewarding illegals with our tax money??? Doesn't giving them free money just encourage more illegals to come here???? I am totally disgusted!

Update:

Not quite,

Just because you file your taxes doesn't mean that you pay income taxes. I think the rebate goes to people who make 3000 or more for the year. That isn't enough to have to pay, especially if you have kids. I think a lot of them file their taxes so they can GET money from the earned income tax credit.

    being an illegal alien and a lawful permanent resident are two entirely different things, one is illegal the other is completely legal. Fox has its facts messed up on this, If they are giving money to illegal aliens I am totally against it, but if lawful permanent residents get the tax break no big deal because they earn their income in the U.S. and they are just biding their time before they become legal US citizens. fox news part about a "substantial" amount of time is ridiculous as well.

    I believe that people that have filed their taxes with the IRS are the ones that would receive the check from the stimulus package. So, if they paid taxes then they should receive the check. Plain and simple, even if you don't like it.

    Source(s): common sense.
