Pumps' Perplexities

During the opening credits of the TV show 'The Naked City'
the announcer said, "there are 8 million stories in the Naked
City".....On the immigration issue I suspect that there may
be as many as 11 million stories......

The politicians are looking at the immigration issue from the
political side and the resulting votes.....Then you have the
people who want your loving compassion on the issue.....

Let's get down to one of the 11 million stories and some brass
tacks.....My Mexican family consists of 4 adults, (1 man,
3 woman) and 3 children (1 male, 2 female).....Seven mouths
to feed in a small 3 bedroom-one bathroom house.....A little
crowded but manageable by today's standards......

They pay taxes on the food and cloths they buy......From their
house rental fee the landlord will pay the county $1,000 in
real estate tax.....However they neglect to pay any county
personal property or other vehicle fees.....Since all the adults
are employed, either full or part time, I suspect that some
Federal and State Taxes may be collected......

The three children go to the county school at a cost of almost
$3,500 each....Total $10,500.....Seems like a lot of money
spent on a family who can not vote......Pumps
