    Maybe the bank should come out and check on this two or three times during the day. It's not a big ask for them to protect us when using their stuff.

    There are literally other stories on the news saying to BEWARE of using the tap feature because the atm works differently in that situation. Usually when you enter you card, once your remove your card the transaction ends but using the tap feature you have to tell the atm to end the transaction so that the next person doesn't have access to your account. I know it is not the news job to teach people how to use atms but that should also be part of this story if you are going to be telling people that tap to access is the safest way to use an ATM. in the situation that you do not end the transaction and the next person empties your account that was watching for you to use the tap feature the bank isn't going to get your money back because it was completely your fault.

      Unfortunately a lot of retailers have turned that option off for some reason. HEB and Walmart both are guilty. Using the tap-to-pay on your phone is smart because it's only "on" when you turn it on. It usually requires you to have your phone locked when not in use, as to where the card is effectively "on" every time you use it; i.e. a long range NFC scanner can pick one up from a few feet away, but if it's in your phone and not active - that long range NFC scanner can't see it.

    Among the key findings in FAIR’s report, The Fiscal Burden of Illegal Immigration on United States Taxpayers:
    The gross annual cost of illegal immigration (the total amount before taxes paid by illegal aliens are factored in) is now $182 billion, annually.
    Taxes paid by illegal aliens only cover around 17.2 percent of the costs they create for American citizens, bringing the net cost to $150.7 billion a year.
    The largest component of the cost is K-12 education, which must be provided under a 1982 Supreme Court ruling. The annual K-12 education cost for illegal aliens (and their U.S.-born children) is $78 billion, of which $70.4 billion is borne by states and localities.
    Health care for illegal aliens costs taxpayers about $42.7 billion annually.
    A variety of food assistance and nutritional programs used by illegal aliens and their children cost taxpayers about $13.5 billion annually.
    Combined federal, state, and local criminal justice costs associated with illegal immigration run about $47 billion annually - not including the cost of damages to victims.

    Federal Taxes
    Taxes collected from illegal aliens help offset fiscal outlays and therefore must be included in any examination of the cost of illegal immigration. However, illegal alien advocates frequently cite the alleged large tax payments made by illegal aliens as a justification for their unlawful presence and as a reason itself to grant them amnesty. That argument is nothing more than a red herring. Such claims rarely look at the costs associated with illegal immigration, and instead only focus on the amounts contributed to the economy and paid in taxes.
    Most studies grossly overestimate both the taxes actually collected from illegal aliens and, more importantly, the net amount of taxes actually paid by them (i.e., the amount of money collected from illegal aliens and ultimately kept by the federal government). A predominant reason for this is that in recent years, the United States has focused on apprehending and removing almost solely criminal aliens (and since President Biden took office, many criminal aliens are now protected from deportation as well). Because of this, the majority of illegal aliens seeking employment in the United States now live in an environment where they have little fear of deportation even if discovered.

    Federal Spending
    The approximately $66.4 billion in federal expenditures attributable to illegal aliens is staggering, and constitutes an increase of 45 percent since 2017. This amounts to roughly $3,187 per illegal alien, per year.
    FAIR believes that every concerned American citizen should be asking our government why, in a time of increasing costs and shrinking resources, it is spending such large amounts of money on individuals who are not authorized to be in the United States. This is an especially important question in view of the fact that the taxes paid by illegal aliens offset very little of the enormous costs stemming from their presence in the country.

    State and Local
    The total fiscal burden of illegal immigration on state taxpayers has now reached a staggering $115.6 billion, which is 30 percent more than it was in 2017. The primary reasons for this, aside from a rapid increase in the illegal alien population, are that a number of states have opted to expand access to state welfare, education, and medical programs to illegal aliens. These expansions have led to taxpayers paying tens of billions in additional funding to cover these costs.
    Concerningly, as will be seen in the following section, the taxes paid by illegal aliens to state and local governments fall far short of making up for the numerous additional state-funded benefits they are receiving. Moreover, with many states set to begin offering even more benefits to illegal aliens, as mentioned previously, these costs are only expected to increase even further.
