Im all for getting rid of illegal immigrants, but i think these numbers are skewed
so... does that mean you're not one? It never ceases to amaze me how some people can b!tch moan and complain about this country, while at the same time enjoy the freedom of living in it. feel free to row your boat back to whereever the fuck you came from.Quote:

It'd be like building on the set of Hellboy.Quote:

But really that number is higher because in their studies they remove from the total number of illegals who either die during the year or who are sent back to the home country. Bringing that number to almost a million a year.http://www.cis.org/topics/illegalimmigration.html
And the census Beureau actually says that we were at 12 million last year. So For argumentative purposes lets call it 10 million. These 10 million illegals send approximately (according to a biased sitewww.noinvaders.org)$56 billion dollars (I buy it because every number I have ever seen is around $50 million)
Illegals now make up aproximately approximately make up 5% of the work force as well.
Some other things to think about:
Households headed by illegal aliens imposed more than $26.3 billion in costs on the federal government in 2002 and paid only $16 billion in taxes, creating a net fiscal deficit of almost $10.4 billion, or $2,700 per illegal household.
Among the largest costs are Medicaid ($2.5 billion); treatment for the uninsured ($2.2 billion); food assistance programs such as food stamps, WIC, and free school lunches ($1.9 billion); the federal prison and court systems ($1.6 billion); and federal aid to schools ($1.4 billion).
With nearly two-thirds of illegal aliens lacking a high school degree, the primary reason they create a fiscal deficit is their low education levels and resulting low incomes and tax payments, not their legal status or heavy use of most social services.
On average, the costs that illegal households impose on federal coffers are less than half that of other households, but their tax payments are only one-fourth that of other households.
Many of the costs associated with illegals are due to their American-born children, who are awarded U.S. citizenship at birth. Thus, greater efforts at barring illegals from federal programs will not reduce costs because their citizen children can continue to access them.
If illegal aliens were given amnesty and began to pay taxes and use services like households headed by legal immigrants with the same education levels, the estimated annual net fiscal deficit would increase from $2,700 per household to nearly $7,700, for a total net cost of $29 billion.
Costs increase dramatically because unskilled immigrants with legal status -- what most illegal aliens would become -- can access government programs, but still tend to make very modest tax payments.
Although legalization would increase average tax payments by 77 percent, average costs would rise by 118 percent.
The fact that legal immigrants with few years of schooling are a large fiscal drain does not mean that legal immigrants overall are a net drain -- many legal immigrants are highly skilled.
The vast majority of illegals hold jobs. Thus the fiscal deficit they create for the federal government is not the result of an unwillingness to work.
The results of this study are consistent with a 1997 study by the National Research Council, which also found that immigrants' education level is a key determinant of their fiscal impact.
I bet the native americans wish they built a wall, the first white "americans" were the dangerous immigrants. If we did fix the problem with illegal immigration, the republicans will just make something else up to scare their children.
I hate to tell you, but those numbers came primarily from CNN if you look at the links. CNN is known for being rather liberal. I have a feeling that the numbers are conservative, if anything. If FoxNews published the same numbers, they would probably be more.Quote:

You can't argue with the facts. Illegal immigrating is costing the US billions a year. It's a problem.
You hug a lot of trees, don't you?Quote:

I dislike leeches just as much as the next guy but let's keep the stupid, biased opinions to a minimum. Just because it says so on a website on the internet doesn't make it true.
When federal tax is witheld from an immigrants check do you really think they get that back? They're paying into Social Security, Federal Taxes, Medicare etc. furthermore they bring economic activity to the US economy.. not all immigrants come here and shoot every dime back to Mexico.Quote:

I dont support illegal immigration but I will call a spade a spade. In all of those statistics I can almost guarantee you the U.S results in a net profit from illegal immigration. (which is the reason why the government is not quick to resolve it)
This is a problem created by the U.S trust me.. criticizing individuals for trying to do what is best for theirselves and their families is hypocritical since we strive to achieve that very same thing every day.

The increase far eclipsed the state with the next-fastest growth — Arizona — which had an increase of 45 percent.

Here are some tips for those that do not support illegal immigration.
Since so many of them use the money they make and send it back to their respective countries, I'd suggest the following:
Do not buy a house in Georgia. An illegal immigrant helped build it.
Do not use the landscaping services of a company that employs illegal immigrants.
Do not buy produce from a company/farm that employs illegal immigrants to tend to their fields/crops.
Do not buy Garrett turbos. They are made in Mexico. This will only help Mexican citizens save up enough money to come to the United States illegally.
This is just a short list I've compiled. I hope this helps with the epidemic.
So do you just not care about the amount of tax money you pay that goes to help out illegal immigrants?Quote:

Of course I do. We pay more money in taxes each year than I care to think about. It's disgusting but what can ya do? Find loopholes. :goodjob:Quote:

To all those that are whining that technically, we are all immigrants here - that is NOT the matter. We are now AMERICANS. The problem here is people circumventing our immigration laws, etc. and still reaping benefits from our country.
Here is a good summary:Quote:
