But that's an arbitrary petty decision, not a legal one. And besides if you're ready to concede that they take advantage of social programs (which isn't true btw), how is this any different?

As long as we apply the same standard to corporations who pay little to no taxes but want corporate welfare and all the benefits...I am ok with it.
Do you corporations pay payroll taxes?
Do corporations that hire people bring money into a community?
Do corporations take risk that workers don't?
That's why it's different. But you already know that, I'm sure.
What about individual taxpayers.....they all pay into the system. Why should those with taxpayer IDs be excluded if they are paying into the same system you are also benefiting from. individual taxpayers bring money into the community (where else do they spend their paychecks?), the contribute to pool of money paid out for your benefits.
The Institute on Taxation and Economic Policy released a report in February 2016, stating that 11 million ITINs in the United States are paying annually an estimated amount of $11.64 billion in state and local taxes.
I am sure in 2019 it was higher.
No one is asking to grant them status or additional rights, but if all taxpayers are getting a check, then all taxpayers should get their check. Simple as that.
the party of bootstraps don't mind living on welfare if it means doing so on other people's backs. For reference, look at slavery.
Where do they get those paychecks? Way to miss the point.
you are going off on a tangent. the point is ITIN people pay taxes on their salaries so why not include them as well on the checks being sent to all taxpayers. They contribute to the kitty so they should get their share.
People complaining about cruise ship lines paying no taxes and wanting a check but now are upset ITIN taxpayers want to get their share? Just does not make sense.
it does if you're racist
