My understanding is that the undocumented still posess SS Cards, albeit faked. So the emloyer take taxes and FICA so they can pretend total innocence when ICE comes calling.

The H1B cost my employer $2500, the Green Card came with this lovely woman attached.

Yes it is, forget Valentines Day, the 11th & 12th were the 30th anniversary of our meeting in that 1983 blizzard, so I picked up a bottle of champagne, wrote her an Anniversary letter, since that was how I courted her, and we quietly celebrated. As she was a widow when we met a bottle of Veuve Cliquot seemed appropriate.

More stuff coming out on possible reasons for the Pope resigning. He apparently decided to resign on the very day that an internal Vatican report showed the place to be a hotbed of gay priests & prostitutes, theft and blackmail.
