They already pay into social security and it is not saving social security. With amnesty they will bring their elderly parents here and they will collect SSI and full Medicaid and they have never paid into the system. Plus those that are paying into the system to save it will some day collect also. More than they paid in.

Most are already on the Govt tab with free school, medical and other social services they obtain through their kids. At some point we will have to alter our social programs as we will have more on them then paying into them.

Of course amnesty isn't meant to save social security - no one could be foolish enough to believe it would. After all - one of the promises is that the current illegals can start bringing in their long-lost loved ones, they can sponsor their elderly parents and grandparents to come and in no time they'll be living the good life of American Social Security checks.

Many illegals are not spring chickens either and many have no savings for their golden years and have no intentions of every going home if they can get amnesty and Social Security checks instead.

What else would the government intend to do with millions of illegals as they become too old to work? The usual of course - have the taxpayers support them with all kinds of government handouts.
