Eventually the guy who now pays for everything that he gets becomes old and sick - that's when the big costs start. This is also a guy who probably has paid nothing except sales tax.

True ----but at the same time many are bringing in their elderly now who never will work or contribute in any way ---to get your elderly relatives in legally and on SSI plus Medicaid, you only need to find some legal relative who is at 125% of federal poverty level to "sponsor" them. The sponsor's income is considered with the immigrants when qualifying them for SSI and Medicaid ----the sponsors don't ever have to actually pay for their immigrant, the taxpayers will. The other family members of course can be very wealthy and never pay either. We're seeing high numbers of elderly being brought in this way ---and it's all completely legal.
