This would be true if all illegal immigrant work is the day laborer all cash transaction variety. However, the truth of the matter is there are tons of illegal aliens in the USA who come in with passports and overstay --either as students who overstay or tourists who overstay. In this situation, many get fake documents to get jobs and yes... they get taxed via the witholding tax system.
