Trump immigrant purge could cost Americans $2,000 a year in social security

Original: Trump immigrant purge could cut social security for Americans by $2,000 a year

Donald Trump's mass deportation drive could reduce social security benefits for Americans by roughly $2,000 a year, according to reporting highlighted by The Guardian. The analysis suggests removing immigrant workers would strip contributions from the payroll taxes that fund the programme, deepening its funding shortfall and hitting future retirees' payments. Critics warn the policy would harm US citizens' finances, not just undocumented immigrants.

Why now: A new analysis links Trump's deportation policy to direct financial losses for American retirees, sparking debate over its economic cost.
