First, these arguments always ignore the fact that illegals will self-deport if the laws are enforced and they can’t get jobs or free benefits.

Also, they fail to compare what allowing these illegals to stay in the country will cost us, which is undoubtedly orders of magnitude more than even if we bear the full cost of deportations.

Amazing that is always overlooked. I'd love to see what it actually cost AZ for SB1070.
