"Illegal immigrants cost the taxpayers $20 billion every year"

How come no one ever calculates the impact on the economy via lower prices for goods and services that are directly related to the lower wages paid illegal immigrants?

Because they don't want anyone to think about that aspect, that's why.

I'll pay the higher cost for these goods, if it will secure our borders, because I know that innovation will create the impetus for prices to be reduced!

Think about this...every time an Illegal Infiltrator needs ANY medical attention, they use the Emergency Room and an Ambulance. Why? Beacuse FEDERAL LAW MANDATES that no one can be turned away, even ILLEGAL INFILTRATORS, that comes in by ambulance!

Now, an American Citizen can have his pay attached if he can't pay the bill, but the ILLEGAL INFILTRATORS have their bills paid for by... the AMERICAN TAXPAYER!

Now, while an ILLEGAL INFILTRATOR is riding in an ambulance with a bad cold, someone else in town who is an AMERICAN CITIZEN is having a coronary...but the closest ambulance is hauling an ILLEGAL INFILTRATOR to the emergency room...care to put the cost on that?
