Tax lesson for the day: In 2023, households led by undocumented immigrants paid $89.8B in total taxes. This includes $33.9B in state and local taxes and $55.8B in federal taxes.

I appreciate this

Doing the right thing isn’t that hard, try it.

These are what educators call “benefits” or “outcomes” of engagement—not “ways to engage.” Did you read your own post?

Maybe start teaching the truth. This administration wants you to believe that it’s immigrants—people cleaning hotel rooms, picking our produce, building homes, and paying taxes every paycheck—who are “living off the system”? No. What’s really happening is this: undocumented workers are subsidizing a rigged economy that allows billion-dollar corporations to skate by tax-free, while the Trump regime and its followers scapegoat the vulnerable to distract from corporate greed. Call it what it is: economic injustice wrapped in xenophobia.

Get ready kids—the Taxman Cometh!

I would, but we're billionaires and don't pay taxes under this administration. I don't see the need to teach my children about things that only affect the 'poor and huddled masses.'

That's rich as your overlords cut taxes for the oligarchs and while doing so aim to loot the country. And the wannabe emperor of six past bankruptcies spends millions of taxpayer money to play golf.
