Let's Stop Paying Illegal Aliens to Stay in the U.S.: Unemployment Insurance
By David North, December 7, 2016
The United States is currently paying up to $1.6 billion a year in unemployment insurance benefits to unemployed illegal alien workers.
Why should we pay these workers to, in effect, stay in the United States even after they have lost their jobs here, jobs that were obtained only through the violation of U.S. laws?

It is a good question, and one that has been rarely asked to date — but dealing with this topic would give the Trump administration an opportunity to reduce the illegal alien population by simply stopping these payments. (We addressed the issue of several other payment schemes for illegal alien in a prior blog posting.)
But we could do a little more with this situation.
