Illegal immigration is estimated to cost the U.S. $113 Billion a year. Most of that, $84 billion is paid at the state and local levels.
California pays out almost $22 Billion to illegals each year! Their state budget deficit is $14 billion.
That's a lot of guacamole!
A quick calculation - that $113 Billion comes to $485. per adult in the U.S.
I’m guessing the $113 Billion doesn’t count the cost for illegals driving drunk, robberies, rapes and murders.
Okay - average monthly food bill for a family of four is $786. Lets say that we have to pay 10 percent more - that’s $80/month x 12 months = $960 per year. But - say that “family of four” includes two adults - so that is $485 x 2 = $970.
So the increased food price is a wash (if the Feds would lower our taxes!).
So we would get the reduction in crime for free!
