The federal government won an 8.7 percent profit of $37.5 billion from the resident population of 2.9 million refugees and asylum seekers in the 15 years before 2020, says a celebratory report by the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS).

The report also notes that the imported refugees also inflicted a 7.3 percent loss of $21.4 billion on the taxpayers who fund state and local governments.

The report calculated the costs by comparing the $739 billion in taxes paid by migrants and their families to their $723.4 billion in government aid.

It is stupid to lump them all together.

The whole point of an immigration policy is to encourge immigration by the productive and discourage it by those who are a drag on everyone else.

Don’t forget the “charities” that rake in the cash from “helping” invaders destroy this nation.

The feds just dump the immigrants into community and expect the state to take care about them!
The states are powerless to stop the invasion, but they must fund the results!

“$723.4 billion in government aid”

This is ridiculous. It should have been, “$0.0 in government aid.”

Federal agencies do not profit from it.

The citizens of the nation are saddled with the bill.

Nobody but the illegal aliens are profiting here.
