But never do they mention the cost to the state of educating millions of illegal aliens.

If you can't face the real problem, you'll never sove it.

I agree 100% about the cost of educating illegal aliens....that is a major problem in a lot of areas. But not only are they costing extra dollars for simply educating them, but they also cost more money in combating crimes. In northwestern Arkansas, almost every one of the crimes that is commited is done by a hispanic. I remember when there weren't so many crimes...I find it amazing that murders and roberies have become an everyday occurence since there was in influx of illegal mexicans (many of them brought up by Tyson--or so the talk was around the poultry plants-my parents worked at one-for the past 10 years or something like that).

Pretty expensive, yes, but we're talking teachers and classrooms and books. Imagine provided that child's entire extended family with free medical care at the local emergency room. Hospitals will follow schools in this meltdown.

"Educate" if CA is like my small town that is a fantasy. In grade school we have loads of immigrant children straight from the 19th century with no English skills and our district bends over backwards to make them fit in to no avail. By high school graduation the class looks lily white since all these kids have moved on or dropped out for various reasons.
