The debate about the fiscal consequences of unlawful and low-skill immigration is hampered by a number of misconceptions. Few lawmakers really understand the current size of government and the scope of redistribution
Unlawful immigrants, on average, are always tax consumers; they never once generate a fiscal surplus that can be used to pay for government benefits elsewhere in society.
If India can put up a 2700 mile fence on its border with Pakistan, floodlight it at night so it can be seen from the space station, AND build a slightly shorter one on their border with Bangladesh, why can’t the USA build a meaningful fence and floodlight it to keep the invaders from digging under it or building over it at night? Our failure shows our weakness of character, not a lack of money.
That’s racist.
I’ve been telling people this for a long time. Maybe medved needs this info.

$700,000 per vote is a bargain to Dems who are spending other people’s money.
These stupid articles must STOP CALLING THEM IMMIGRANTS!!!!!
They are ILLEGAL ALIENS!!! They are guilty of breaking and entering!
$700,000 sounds pretty high to me...
Educating the children of illegals alone come to at least a half trillion in ten years.

That $700,000 also supports some American crooks’ bottom line.
