In my case, I can mange my cost of living on my SS since I no longer drive. However, I work PT when in the USA and pick up shifts, that's my spending money... SS was never meant to be sole support anyways. I had 2 rental Condos and my Condo all paid off, but got married and now own nothing since I retired and moved abroad, I came back with my wife due to the COVID lockdowns, starting over when you have a couple of suitcases each, is expensive in the USA. Between that, moving abroad and building a house while living on savings depleted my nest egg to 20%, since returning to the USA I'm at 150% but then we have had massive inflation.
The returning to work caused SS problems with overpayment, but I paid them back and they took the rest back. The silver lining is that I bumped off low-earning years and received a 2% increase the first year, 1 % the second year, and almost 1% the third year. Last year is yet to be determined... This year PT and seasonal won't be bumping off any more low years, but there is unlimited earned income at FR age. Note: Last year was my 49th year paying into SS
When I was young, I worked hard, and I had jobs pestering me to come back.
An early job was in a foliage nursery lumping plants and pots to the potting stations. When I started there were 2 of us. After awhile the other guy quit, yet I was able to do the job alone. When my Grandfather passed away I moved in with Gram and had no way to get to work, they called me more than once trying to get me to come back, I can give multiple examples of that type of situation.
That's impressive. But does nothing to change what's going on.
So...I'll give you a digital pat on the back and an " 'Atta boy!" But that's pretty much all your personal anecdote amounts to.
Wasn't trying to impress, nor looking for atta boys, but thanks. You seem to think we NEED the illegals to work to make America function.
A better approach is for the 3rd world countries to kick the globalists' asses and make life better in their countries.
50 years ago the illegals came to work, and few were on the dole; that's a relatively new thing.
At any rate, laws already exist that makes it illegal to hire illegals, industry just found ways to get around it, that with lack of enforcement.
But hey if you have a business that hires illegals it is on you if you get arrested.
Already almost tripple the numbers of illegals that were deported have self-deported and the de-banking hasn't really kicked in yet. The removal from government handouts has only just got going good.
They don't have to arrest all illegal hiring employers and the number of employers to make the no illegal choice will outnumber their arrests.
You have been around here quite a while, and you are coming off arguing like a Krassinstein. Are you sure you are conservative?

You don't seem to be too productive here
God bless you, I am tired of people telling me we need the illegals and they have been even people who were born here long time ago, I know we have plenty of homeless, young Americans, people who have studied in colleges, middle age that cant find jobs, I wish I can have two jobs but it is impossible Cubans hiring Cubans Haitians hiring Haitians, Mexicans hiring Mexicans, this is done on purpose to hurt us and destroy the little we have left, what is this crap? The other day a lady who you can tell came recently to this country who nearly speak English told me she has two jobs and when I asked her how long has she been in this country she told me like 10 years. Give me a break she is from Mexico, probably they have been trained to tell everyone the same crap, No more fairness or by merit just who knows you, same tactic these illegals creeps using in their hell whole countries. I came legally and waited in my country for many years and I learned my English in my former country then US Immigration services granted me to be US resident claimed by my sister, then I became a US citizen. I did everything by the rules and these illegals came and didn’t have to do the things I had to. I am very pissed off.
Yes, I'm sure I'm conservative. Being conservative isn't something that can use the number of comments on a public forum as gatekeeping.
But, nice effort to dismiss my comments.
Had nothing to do with your comments numbers, but you come across as not wanting children or criminals having to face the ravages of having to work.
