Illegal aliens have been useing faux SS and tax numbers for a while. Somehow it works, somehow they get jobs, and somehow they WILL get some free(er) healthcare.

I dont like it, but thats the way it is.

Actually you don't need faux tax numberse.

Illegal immigrants can get legitamite tax numbers.

The IRS assigns illegal immigrants with tax numbers that they can use instead of SS numbers to pay taxes.

They figure... if they're going to be here why not make them pay taxes?  Many illegal immigrants pay these taxes because there is a chance that when amnesty passes these numbers could be key.  You may only get amnesty if you've been paying taxes for a certain number of years.
