Has anyone tried to put together an impartial analysis of the effects of illegal immigration?

Try doing some research at the Center for Immigration Studies. They have conducted extensive research including this report:

Tired and Poor: The Bankrupt Arguments for Mass, Unskilled Immigration

by Steven A. Camarota

National Review, September 3, 2001

"We at the Center for Immigration Studies estimate that the average Mexican immigrant will use $55,200 more in public services during his lifetime than he pays in taxes."

People are people, and I don't like anybody living off my tax money.

I read the article (it took me a while to find it since your link didn't work), and it makes me wonder.

Wouldn't it make sense to simply allow illegals to work, but deport them if they requested social services?

That seems simple, clean and good for the economy.
