foreigners pay property taxes on land owned in the USA. Many illegals pay social security. Many employers require a SS# for employment, so they simply provide a bogus card t owould be employers. In return, they get employment and the SS administration collects BILLIONS that never has to be repaid to these people. One more reason why there's no real interest in stopping the influx of illegals..

property and SS-taxes.. I am just relating that to the US statistics on citizens, legal and illegal aliens, employment and unemployment.. " I've never heard of any county making tax agreements with foreign countries" USA has a lot of tax-agreements with other nations, usually to at least avoid double-taxation of US citizens. That, I guess, also applies to the citizens of that non-US nation, after the agreement has been agreed on. For capital gains it seems to include some level of "tax-sharing", in my case the net result is that I pay 5% to USA while deducting that amount from my national capital gain taxes. PS SS-taxes, see my info on the 10-year rule (although I have not double-checked that for some years). My point mainly that property taxes are "easy" as the property sits where it is, while both capital and labor can be much more "fluid". PPS SS-taxes is said to be the only US tax one cannot avoid, if one has salary income in, or from USA??
