From the article:

“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.

...but also because the migrants spend their wages — plus taxpayer aid — at retail stories and rental agencies.

That's horsechit! The illegals only spend their wages on beer and their lunches of corn cobs, tacos and burritos, and the rest of their wages they're going to the closest grocery store and wiring it back to mexico -or wherever.

$700,000 per vote is a bargain to Dems who are spending other people’s money.

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