The United States collects around 3.7 Trillion per year. The taxes the illegals pay is minor in comparison. The cost of Illegal Immigrants to the US is over $100 Billion per year.Record $135 billion a year for illegal immigration, average $8,075 each, $25,000 in NY

If people don’t earn any money then they won’t pay income taxes. Naive people will thus believe that the already highly taxed money in their bank accounts is safe.However, we are slaves to our government masters and none of our life savings actually belongs to us; there are countless schemes to both overtly and covertly confiscate every last buck.Personal/Consumer Taxes & FeesFederal income taxState income taxLocal income taxEmployee social security tax (your employer pays the other half)Employee Medicare tax (your employer pays the other half)Property taxesRoad toll chargesState sales taxDriver's license renewal feeTV Cable/Satellite fees & taxesFederal telephone surtax, excise tax, and universal surchargeState telephone excise tax and surchargeTelephone minimum usage and recurring/nonrecurring charges taxGas/electric bill fees & taxesWater/sewer fees & taxesCigarette taxAlcohol taxFederal gasoline taxState gasoline taxLocal gasoline taxFederal inheritance taxState inheritance taxGift taxBridge toll chargesMarriage licenseHunting licenseFishing licenseBike license feeDog permit/licenseState park permitWatercraft registration & licensing feesSports stadium taxBike/nature trail permitCourt case filing feeRetirement account early withdrawal penaltyIndividual health insurance mandate taxHotel stay taxPlastic surgery surchargeSoda/fatty-food taxAir transportation taxElectronic transmission of tax return feesPassport application/renewal feeLuxury & gas-guzzler car taxesNew car surchargeLicense plate and car ownership transfer taxesYacht and luxury boat taxesJewelry taxes & surchargesState/local school taxRecreational vehicle taxSpecial assessments for road repairs or constructionGun ownership permitKiddie tax (IRS form 8615)Fuel gross receipts taxWaste Management taxOil and gas assessment taxUse taxes (on out-of-state purchase)IRA rollover tax/withdrawal penaltiesTax on non-qualified health saving account distributionsIndividual and small business surtax (page 336 of Obamacare)Estimated income tax underpayment penaltyAlternative Minimum Tax on incomeBusiness Taxes & FeesFederal corporate income taxState corporate income taxTax registration fee for new businessesEmployer social security taxEmployer Medicare taxFederal unemployment taxState unemployment taxBusiness registration renewal taxWorker's compensation taxTax on imported/exported goodsOil storage/inspection feesEmployer health insurance mandate taxExcise Tax on Charitable Hospitals (page 2001/Sec. 9007 of Obamacare)Tax on Innovator Drug Companies (Page 2010/Sec. 9008 of Obamacare)Tax on Medical Device Manufacturers (Page 2020/Sec. 9009 of Obamacare)Tax on Health Insurers (Page 2026/Sec. 9010 of Obamacare)Excise Tax on Comprehensive Health Insurance Plans, i.e. "Cadillac" plansTax on indoor tanning servicesUtility users taxInternet transaction fee (passed in California; being considered in other states and at federal level)Professional license fee (accountants, lawyers, barbers, dentists, plumbers, etc.)Franchise business taxTourism and concession license feeWiring inspection feesHousehold employment taxBiodiesel fuel taxFDIC tax (insurance premium on bank deposits)Electronic waste recycling feeHazardous material disposal feeFood & beverage license feeEstimated income tax underpayment penaltyBuilding/construction permitZoning permitFire inspection feeWell permit taxSales and Use tax seller's permitCommercial driver's license feeBank ATM transaction taxOccupation taxes and fees (annual charges required for a host of professions)

Excellent question. Geoff, I note that you are from the UK which has just enacted a fresh set of regulations, let me answer your question from a US perspective which is what I am familiar with.I have been advocating for registration at the point of sale (POS) here in the US since 2015 when the FAA rolled out the initial sUAS (small UAS eg drone) registration rule. There is, of course, ample precedent - all sorts of fishing and hunting licenses, watercraft registration, vehicle registrations and on are all done at retail stores or as part of a sale (eg when you buy a car, the registration and fee are part of the transaction.)Here’s why it is important. In the US, there are some ~1.2M FAA drone registrations. But there are a number of gotchas. First, a recreational drone flier (aka hobbyist, modeler) is only required to register once for $5. That registration covers an unlimited number of drones (actual aircraft) and one “N” number is used for all of them. Commercial users operating under Part 107 must register each drone separately, and each gets a unique “N” number. (N is what we call the registration numbers seen on manned aircraft.)Out of the 1.2M, well over a million are recreational drone fliers. Which means that no one has any idea how many drones have been sold or are actually operating. And because registration does not take place at POS, an even larger number of people choose not to register at all. In fact, the general consensus is that there are more unregistered drones than registered drones.What happened is that in October 2015 the FAA (your CAA), concerned about the expected 1M units forecast to be sold over the Holiday season, convened an advisory committee of people representing various industry segments and gave them a month to come up with a recommendation.You will probably not be surprised when I tell you that the retail (box store) representatives were opposed - “too hard.” As were the manufacturers who were concerned that both a registration fee and registration at POS would have a negative effect on their sales. For reasons best known to them, but which I hope to write about someday, the FAA acquiesced.The rationale for registration was that it would give the FAA an opportunity to ‘educate’ new owners (effectively non-pilots) about the rules of the road in the NAS (National Airspace System) thus hopefully ensuring that they did not run into manned aircraft and kill people. Fortunately, no one has died yet.But it is also clear that the education effort - which can charitably be described as minimal - failed. In fact, in the last FAA Reauthorization (2018) Congress explicitly instructed the FAA to get cracking with enforcement.Going forward, in the US two things are likely to have some impact on the situation.The first is that sometime in 2019(?) recreational pilots will be required to take an online knowledge test to obtain a license to fly a drone. (One is seeing this in more and more countries, including I believe the UK under the new rules.) In theory, a local law enforcement officer can demand to see that license. And at least in theory, the operator license will be tied to the aircraft registration.The second is that within 1–2 years the majority of drones will be required to have some kind of transponder that transmits their registration information - (what we call squawk) this is called Remote ID. This is hardly a radical concept, every cellphone in the world has a unique identifier. In fact, the DJI drones already do this and the data can be read by the DJI Aeroscope which was designed for this purpose.The idea is that Remote ID will perform two functions:It will identify the operator. This is particularly valuable when law enforcement is trying to determine if the drone is a friend or foe. Compliant drones (those with Remote ID) will make it possible to track and even immediately contact the operator. Non-compliant drones will immediately be put in the foe pile. In theory, if the drone(s) at Gatwick were compliant, it would lead you straight to the pilot. That said, given the prerequisite skills, it is very easy to build one of these at which point, especially if built for nefarious purposes, it is unlikely that they would squawk. Or they could send a false squawk etc.The growth of the commercial drone industry - particularly in the area of extended operations will be regulated by various forms of automated UTMs - unmanned traffic management systems. (In the EU this is known as U-Share) In round terms, you can think of them as analogous to the current air traffic control system with no humans. Remote ID is an essential component of an aircraft using that system.Obviously, there are a lot of issues here about privacy, to say nothing of how to upgrade the legacy (existing) fleet which numbers in the unknown millions, when no one except the retailer and the credit card company has any idea who the buyers were.You can sum up my perspective as a very small number of manufacturers and retailers are profiting greatly from the lack of regulation of recreational drones. The result is that billions of dollars will be spent trying to counter what we call the careless, the clueless and the criminal. The place to begin getting all this under control is the Point of Sale.Which I think answers your question?
