Clearly illegal labor expands the economy. Now we need to fix the problem of labor overregulation and welfare for illegals so that real Americans get their fair shake. I also tend to be a monoculturalist so I think a decrease in immigration would help right now. But it is just wrong to say their labor does nothing to increase the economy.

I'm still waiting for proof of this assertion.

I totally agree, but that gets overlooked on these threads on FR.

Nary a word about welfare and over-regulation.

Just knee jerk slogans, ala jorge arbusto, etc.etc.

Clearly illegal labor expands the economy.

And if the borders were completely open and 300 millions people from the Third World migrated in, the economy would get even larger.
