Kenneth Evans DVM+FollowPaid in Cash, Covered by NothingMy dad gets paid in cash at construction sites. No benefits. No insurance. When he fell off a ladder, he missed two weeks of work—and two weeks of income. People say undocumented immigrants drain the system. Those weeks, the system gave us nothing. #ImmigrantLabor #CashWork #HiddenCosts #EconomicReality11Share
Amy Gallegos+FollowWe Pay In, But Can’t Ask for HelpMy parents file taxes using an ITIN. The money goes into the system, but the system never opens for us. No SNAP. No Medicaid. No safety net at all. One accident is enough to destroy everything. The government accepts our labor but rejects our existence. Is this really what “humane” looks like? #ITINTaxes #ImmigrantLabor #NoSafetyNet #PolicyContradictions31Share
