They aren't cheap once you add in all the benefits paid for by HARD WORKING LEGAL AMERICAN CITIZENS.

Immigrants and the people who employ them pay taxes too to support these systems, so there is absolutely no free ride. Instead of attacking immigrants, why don't we simply reform the welfare system so all benefits are limited?

Just by being here ILLEGALLY is a FREE RIDE. If they are breaking one law what makes you think they are respecting the others?

You obviously don't know what you are talking about. What makes you think that employers hiring ILLEGALS are reporting salaries or earnings of people who aren't suppose to be here in the first place? ILLEGALS cost the system more than they are contributing. Like I said, FORCE the employers hiring ILLEGALS to pay for their benefits and see how many are still employed.
