Undocument immigrants paid taxes, unlike GE, which paid zero

I bet most of you didn't know undocumented immigrants contributed more - much more - to the national treasury last year than General Electric. Surprised? Yet it's true.
While GE - which earned a whopping $14 billion last year - is reported to have paid nothing, nada, zero in taxes (GE denies it), the undocumented paid billions in state and local taxes in 2010.

A study estimates that undocumented immigrants paid more than $11 billion in taxes last year, far outpacing corporate behemoth GE, which paid nothing.
