Another for consideration~~Enormous financial burdon??? you betcha'

Executive Summary
This report estimates the annual costs of illegal immigration at the federal, state and local level to be about $113 billion; nearly $29 billion at the federal level and $84 billion at the state and local level. The study also estimates tax collections from illegal alien workers, both those in the above-ground economy and those in the underground economy. Those receipts do not come close to the level of expenditures and, in any case, are misleading as an offset because over time unemployed and underemployed U.S. workers would replace illegal alien workers.
Key Findings
Illegal immigration costs U.S. taxpayers about $113 billion a year at the federal, state and local level. The bulk of the costs — some $84 billion — are absorbed by state and local governments.
The annual outlay that illegal aliens cost U.S. taxpayers is an average amount per native-headed household of $1,117. The fiscal impact per household varies considerably because the greatest share of the burden falls on state and local taxpayers whose burden depends on the size of the illegal alien population in that locality
Education for the children of illegal aliens constitutes the single largest cost to taxpayers, at an annual price tag of nearly $52 billion. Nearly all of those costs are absorbed by state and local governments.
At the federal level, about one-third of outlays are matched by tax collections from illegal aliens. At the state and local level, an average of less than 5 percent of the public costs associated with illegal immigration is recouped through taxes collected from illegal aliens.
Most illegal aliens do not pay income taxes. Among those who do, much of the revenues collected are refunded to the illegal aliens when they file tax returns. Many are also claiming tax credits resulting in payments from the U.S. Treasury.
With many state budgets in deficit, policymakers have an obligation to look for ways to reduce the fiscal burden of illegal migration. California, facing a budget deficit of $14.4 billion in 2010-2011, is hit with an estimated $21.8 billion in annual expenditures on illegal aliens. New York’s $6.8 billion deficit is smaller than its $9.5 billion in yearly illegal alien costs.
The report examines the likely consequences if an amnesty for the illegal alien population were adopted similar to the one adopted in 1986. The report notes that while tax collections from the illegal alien population would likely increase only marginally, the new legal status would make them eligible for receiving Social Security retirement benefits that would further jeopardize the future of the already shaky system. An amnesty would also result in this large population of illegal aliens becoming eligible for numerous social assistance programs available for low-income populations for which they are not now eligible. The overall result would, therefore, be an accentuation of the already enormous fiscal burden.

The National Research Council! And from the book cited by Rense; "The New Americans; Economics, Demographics and Fiscal Effects of Immigration"!

Their report concluded that legal and illegal immigration adds $1 to $10 billion per year to the GDP and has little negative effect on job opportunities for most citizens! The report also concludes that immigration is a net economic gain for the US economy because the value to what they produce is more than their wages!

http://migration.ucdavis.edu/mn/more.php?id=1246_0_2_0

There is nothing in the report about $300 billion that both of the sources you posted earlier, in other words you believe all the lies that the right wing propaganda machine is feeding you!

Are they too far right for you ?

One simple reality check answer in the form of a question for this untrue proclamation, "Then why is California going broke and cannot balance their budget, except through smoke and mirror tactics that are proven false by simple accounting," for the smoke and mirrors of their balancing act is just adding huge and tremendous debt to future generations of Californians, where their entitlement and retirement programs are completely underfunded for the very near future, and they are borrowing from Peter to pay Paul, until there is nothing left to borrow from Peter, which is coming very soon. And the California Democrats are hoping for a federal government bailout, which will never come because Obama and the Democrats have already put the federal government in the same position that California now finds itself, because of their support for illegal immigrants whose taxes don't even come close to covering the cost of our government entitlement programs that they use, as they are poorer than our own poor, and we can't take care of both our poor, and the illegal immigrant poor for much longer, for everyone that is trying is going broke, including the federal government. When Obama became President there were only 17 million American citizens on 'Welfare and Food Stamps', during the worst of the Bush recession, but after 7 straight years of Obama's declared economic recovery from June 2009, today there are over 50 Million people on 'Welfare & Food Stamps', and increase of threefold during 7 straight years of a supposed economic recovery. How does one explain that, except that Obama has lied about the economic recovery and has decimated the middleclass by adding 34 million people to the ranks of the poor by putting them on 'Welfare and Food Stamps' during 7 long years of a supposed economic recovery, or we are supporting all the illegal immigrants that your report claims provides enough taxes to do all this support through entitlement programs, and even though we've drastically cut back on our military budget and other programs, and while we are collecting historically record setting high amounts of taxes each year, Obama's deficits every year have averaged approximately $1.3 trillion, which now can't be covered by the normal sale of US Treasury Bonds to people and other nations, so the 'Federal Reserve Board' (FRB) has been printing up US Dollars out of thin air with no intrinsic value, and have been themselves buying US Treasury Bonds, calling it falsely (lying) 'Quantitative Easing', in order to cover Obama's every year record setting deficits, and is the reason why inflation in food stuffs and energy has been over 50% during Obama's terms as President, and has more than doubled the 'National Debt', that was only $9.6 trillion when Obama became President, to a proven projection over $20 trillion by the end of his second term, more than doubling the national debt amount that took all our other Presidents together, 232 years to acquire, and Obama did it in just 8 years.

But Technically (since they can't hold legal jobs) they don't pay a dime in State or Federal Income Taxes).. That's why a Consumer Tax is needed.

Yet they take jobs away from Americans who could be earning, spending, and paying those taxes.

Round them up, toss out the bad ones (Illegal Aliens), monitor the good ones (Illegal Immigrants) to make sure they learn English and abide by our laws... and even then, they committed a crime and went ahead of all the immigrants that have been trying to enter or country, legally.

Amnesty is not an option...

I have a simple question. If these aliens are so great; why does every country they come from suck? Perhaps it is the people living there. In that case, please tell me how allowing that garbage into our country is beneficial. Well, unless you are gay like Rayland and need these idiots to vote Democrat.

Raylan Wolfe... Do You Understand... This IS NOT About Contributing To Our USA Coffers Or Our Society...

This Is About People Who Are TRESPASSING... They DO NOT LEGALLY BELONG IN OUR USA...

You And Everyone Who Supports The 11 Million Trespassing Illegal Aliens Staying In Our USA Are Either KNOWINGLY OR IGNORANTLY SHREDDING OUR IMMIGRATION LAWS TO BITS...

I Do NOT Know Whether You Are Knowledgeable or Ignorant... I DO Know You Have Scissors In Your Hands...

And conservatives are stuck on stuck on stupid, below is article created by Heritage, a right wing propaganda site that is debunked more times than not!

Conservative Slamming the Heritage Report on Immigration is the Right Move for GOP!

http://nbclatino.com/2013/05/07/opinion-conservatives-slamming-the-heritage-report-on-immigration-is-the-right-move-for-gop/

The report which Heritage Foundation president Jim Demint claimed was peer reviewed was laughed out of the room by the economists before it even hit the Fox News back slapping circuit. Respected economists on the right spent the day on dynamic scoring and the American Enterprise Institute turned away from Heritage Foundation for vilifying immigrants!

Only the lowest of the low conservatives took the bait on Heritage's blatantly false report!

http://amac.us/illegal-immigration-cost-1/

Unlawful immigration and amnesty for current unlawful immigrants can pose large fiscal costs for U.S. taxpayers. Government provides four types of benefits and services that are relevant to this issue:

Direct benefits. These include Social Security, Medicare, unemployment insurance, and workers’ compensation.
Means-tested welfare benefits. There are over 80 of these programs which, at a cost of nearly $900 billion per year, provide cash, food, housing, medical, and other services to roughly 100 million low-income Americans. Major programs include Medicaid, food stamps, the refundable Earned Income Tax Credit, public housing, Supplemental Security Income, and Temporary Assistance for Needy Families.
Public education. At a cost of $12,300 per pupil per year, these services are largely free or heavily subsidized for low-income parents.
Population-based services. Police, fire, highways, parks, and similar services, as the National Academy of Sciences determined in its study of the fiscal costs of immigration, generally have to expand as new immigrants enter a community; someone has to bear the cost of that expansion.
The cost of these governmental services is far larger than many people imagine. For example, in 2010, the average U.S. household received $31,584 in government benefits and services in these four categories.<snip> More to read I just stopped here...

Hey wolf easy there before you shoot off your mouth off the article you posted is 100% accurate. No dispute what so ever. Now if you take those Mexicans a ship them back now your left without any low wage people for your corporate elite to take advantage of. Now if you do get a legal citizen to take the low wage jobs we still have the same exact thing as we do with illegals performing those jobs. They pay no taxes because there wages are poverty wages. Now go back to the other article the IRS had 3.8 million people working with a phony ID and SS number the corporation they work for pay there taxes and they never can file for a tax return. So the IRS gets to keep it.

That may be true, but American citizens will have milk and bread on their tables and won't be sending money back to Mexico.

And which of these supposed laughing economists are you talking about, the ones who claim that we've been in an economic recovery for the last 7 straight years, that Obama proclaimed back in June 2009? Are they also laughing about last months economic report where the 'Bureau of Labor Statistics' (BLS) said that we now have 95 million unemployed American citizens of working age (16 years to 54 years of age) that have been dropped from the 'US Workforce' because they have been without a job for 52 weeks and longer, but still have another 8 million unemployed American citizens of working age that are still counted in the 'US Workforce' because they haven't been without a job for 52 weeks yet, making a total number of unemployed Americans in the USA today to be 103 million people, out of what the BLS claims on their internet web site is only a total number of 256 million American citizens of working age living in the USA today, with 103 million of them being unemployed today, making the real, true, and accurate 'US Unemployment Rate' to be just over 40%, not the 4.9% your laughing economists claim. And how can this be proven, beside the BLS admitting it in last month's economic report that showed the lowest amount of new jobs created in over 6 years? By the fact that when Obama became President during the worst of the Bush recession, there were only 17 million American citizens on 'Welfare & Food Stamps', but today after 7 years straight of your laughing economists' economic recovery, the number of American citizens on 'Welfare & Food Stamps' have tripled to over 50 million American citizens today, which I too, as your economist do, think this is very funny, and very suspicious, happening during 7 years straight of a supposed economic recovery. And also what too is hilarious for your laughing economists is the fact that during the last 7 1/2 years of Obama's Presidency the average annual income for Americans has decreased by nearly 15%, from $58,000.00 when Obama became President, to less than $50,000.00 today, some economists claim it is as low as $32,000.00, and the average wealth of an American family during this same time has decreased by just over 10%, and laughingly all during 7 years straight of Obama's economic recovery, so says your laughing economists. I could go on for what a disaster our economy has been for the averaged American citizens, like the decimation of the middleclass, proven by the adding of 34 million Americans to the 'Welfare & Food Stamps' roles, taking them from the middleclass and adding them to the new Obama poor, during you laughing economists supposed economic recovery. But I don't think, like your laughing economists, you have the attention span to read all the disasters that have occurred, and are still occurring, in what your laughing economists tells us is a great and expanding economy, while the average American is crying, instead of laughing. The only expansion this country has seen under the Obama and Democrat rule, besides the ranks of the now federal government dependent poor, is our national debt, that also during this supposed 7 years straight of what your laughing economists call an economic recovery, went from the $9.6 trillion when Obama became President, to the projection of well over $20 trillion when Obama leaves office, more than doubling in just 8 years, what it took all our other Presidents added together, 232 years to acquire, while at the same time Obama has claimed to have reduced the increase rate of our national debt, while his deficits have averaged just over $1.3 trillion every year he's been President, and his last year projection is higher than that, despite bringing in historically record setting high amounts of taxes for the last 4 years, and all during your laughing economists' supposed economic recovery. And you using these people to nix anything is unbelievable, for the statistical facts prove them to be liars for Obama and the Democrats, and the American people have already figured this out by having to live through the economic disaster that has been Obama's and the Democrats failed economic policies and agendas. Get real, you just make us want to believe whatever you say is untrue, just by the fact of who you use to say it is untrue, liars, and the American people now know it.
