An article published in 2007, but worth repeating. With seven years passing, the billions numbers of illegals here have increased.

Screw the numbers, the net financial drain, blah, blah, blah. They’re criminals living here illegally yet being rewarded by the government for doing so. We need for them to leave, regardless. Yeah, we won’t have as many maids, janitors or taco trucks, but we’ll adjust.

Think of what a boon it would be for their home countries if they went back.

When I lived in CA and they had a “life without Mexicans” day, the only thing I noticed was it was a little harder if you wanted to eat Mexican food.

Americans will be able to do the jobs we’ve wanted to do all along?

“They pay rent”. Yeah but 120 people living in the same 2 bedroom house doesn’t really bring in a lot of rental dollars and it’s kind of hard on the house.

Less innocent, hardworking people would be killed. More jobs would open up. Fewer welfare recipients....how could any of that be bad?

Its just as true today as it was then. There is no negative to getting rid of all the illegals.

We have numerous guest worker programs for the ones who come here to pick crops and then go back home til next year. In fact about 70% of farmworkers are US citizens. Most people think they are all illegals.

Illegals do nothing to enrich our society as the ones who come are not the educated, skilled middle and upper classes. Most are not even families. Its the poorest of the poor and illiterate young males.

The only people who want illegals here are the big corporations who want cheap labor and the Democrat/Communist party who want more slaves on the plantation to vote Democrat.

"They (illegal aliens) pay rent, buy groceries, buy clothes...what happens to your country's economy if 20 million people go away?"

Basic Economic Fallacy Alert!

People make society as a whole POORER by buying things. It is what people PRODUCE that makes society richer. When people are buying stuff with money they got from welfare, then their presence in society is, in economic terms, a pure liability.

Although many illegal aliens work, they are, on the whole, a liability.

Therefore, if they were all deported, America as a whole would be instantly richer.

When you factor in crime as an economic cost of their presence, then their deportation would increase the general level of wealth even more.

We would sell more of the goods overseas and pay Americans more attractive labor for the Services at home.

Savings in entitlement spending? 20 million citizens can get jobs?

If it is anything like “A Day Without A Mexican,” the roads will be less crowded, the stores will be peaceful arenas and the people will all have smiles on their faces.
That was my experience. Loved it. Looked like the population of my youth.

I know if they all leave I can go to Martin Memorial Hospital South in Stuart and not have to wait for 100+ illegals from Indiantown to get fixed on my dime.
