Just because you say that doesn’t make it true. Do you have a link? Where do you/they come up with that number?

I think it been pointed out but let remember if the illegal immigrants, who use fake ID and Social Security Numbers were here legally they could get a Social Security Number and recieved benefits. Yes illegal immigrants children do tend our schools as per court order. Most if not all the taxes coming from illegal immigrants go to the Federal Government, not State or Local. You would be surprised at the cost of illegal immigrants in State prisons and county jails, they are there not for illegally entering the country but for real crimes such a murder. There are actual programs in place to help illegal immogramts get into programs and assist them in many ways, like buying a house. So many programs that the Legal immigrants have filed a lawsuit to get the same benefits.

I've only read the posts on the first page of this thread.

Okay, I get it and I'm certain other people get it. There are illegals in this country that are contributing to the Tax system and Social Security.

Seriously though, this still ain't right for somebody to pay into a system they don't get anything out of in the long term. These illegals are getting screwed. I imagine some people who's indentities have been stolen and sold are getting screwed.

Will somebody kindly explain to me, how this makes illegal immigration okay? Please enlighten me because I'm still seeing a lot of truely amazingly fucked up bullshit going on here?

So our Goverment is capitalizing on the illegal immigrant problem, while citizens are getting their identities stolen. Just makes me feel so proud to be an American I tell you. Seriously folks, I don't undertand how anybody in their right mind does not see some real issues going on here.

So I guess this means, somebody can steal and sell my indentity to a Mexican for $150.00 and the world is a better place? Wonder just how much money they could rack up for my retirement. ;^)

Off set that by the 12,000,000,000 they cost by not paying the filing fees to be here to begin with.

Now if they were here legally, 1) The wouldn't need to get fake IDs or SSNs. And 2) The Republicans would have one less thing to bitch about. As long as the Republicans can convince voters that someone or something else is to blame for their failures....they'll keep getting elected.

Yes, as MANY studies have shown: kids not in school tend to cause trouble of the illegal kind. Through, being more a burden on the taxpayer in court fees (since they are given a lawyer paid for by the state/federal govement), and what ever their sentence is. It is more cost efficent in the long run, to have them go to school, and get an education. That is, if your 'for', saving the taxpayer money. And its not at court order, but by the laws of the land. Or do you REALLY think some 'liberal activist judge' order it?

The Commonwealth of Massachusets, like most states of the Union, have a sales tax. This tax is applied in specific instances on products/services. If ANYONE, legal or not, purchases that product/service, they PAY the tax. So, your arguement is faulty.

Second, as has been noted by the IRS: A) They allow for voluntary taxes to be paid (most states do the same actually), and B) The majority of the suspected illegal immigrants, pay the IRS voluntarily. Where do you think that 12-15 million illegal immigrants comes from? People just add a few million on top of the number that pays the IRS year after year

You would be surprised at the cost (and number) of legal immigrants/citizens in state prisons and county jails, who never paid taxes, because they feel the 16th Amendment was never ratified (which it was in 1903 if I recall correctly).

So we should deport murders, so they can come back in to our country and murder....AGAIN? 'Brilliant' idea. Good thing, it doesnt work that way in the United States!

Besides, the actual number of illegal immigrants that enter this country, just to commit a criminal action is about 2-5% of the total. Your going to argue, the reason for being anti-illegal immigrant, is, being angry at a small minority? Sure, they broke one or more laws just skipping the border. But then, US Citizens break laws every day on the nation's highways. Next time your driving near a city.....count....the number of motorists traveling OVER the posted speed limit. Then ask yourself "How many of these people, are conservatives, and support the 'values' of the GOP?".

Yes, because unlike Republicans it seems, Democrats actually give a damn about humanity. Republicans give a damn, when they can make money off the disaster.

Republicans voted against:

A) Health Care for Americans
B) Health coverage for 9/11 Responders
C) Keeping the unemployed 'liquid' for a while longer on the hopes of jobs being found.

You want to question morals?

Well that is their right as citizens to do. But then, would you REALLY want to live in an area with illegal immigrants, when your view points (yes points, with an 's') are so anti-'illegel immigrant'? Americans gain several tons, MORE programs to access, then illegal immigrants. Some programs have to be given to all persons, due to discrimination and the 14th Amendment.

Funny that in study after study, points out that illegal immigrants give more then they take. Using purely accounting methods, in some years, the illegal immigrants created a net lost, not a net gain. However, it is often noted (cus its common sense), that employers gain essentially 'free' labor that would have normally cost three to four times in a 'legal' manner. As it is hard, if not impossible to calculate or estimate the ROI of employers that do this practice, it stands to reason, the amount of 'added' profit' to companies is heighten by unreported sources of income. Thats the accountant's way of saying 'we broke the law and dont want to get busted'.

A study back in 2007, by the University of New Mexico, studying the effects of illegal immigration (on the state of New Mexico), found a profit of $200 million. The amount illegal immigrants charged that state, was less, by $200 million, then by which they have the state in revenues.

David Karjanen, a Professor at the Institute for Global Studies at the University of Minnesota, Wrote this in regards to illegal immigration. (dated 2007)

To be fair, the good professor, does point out the 'Center for Immigration Studies', that is used by many to understand the issue. Unforuntately, their most 'recent' study (for the entire United States and territories), is from 2002, and the information hardly relavent to our needs in 2010. It was based on data collected from the 2000 Census. So, it would stand to be reasonable, the 2010 Census would provide (hopefully) better information. But as I pointed out above, these costs are the ones that can best be estimated with some degree of accuracy. We dont know many bits of data, that would give a much more accurate picture of the issue.

Still, unfortunate again, is the number of people, who are racists or hold 'bigotry' views, changing, modifying, or out right lying (i.e. Fox News & Rush Limbaugh), for the information to fit their view point. Would it not be in America's best interest to do as careful of a study, free of partian bullshit as possible? Would most of the country even accept it, after the task was complete, as being 'factual' and 'accurate'? Only if it supported their viewpoints...

And what lies are those?

And non-partisan studies have been done. The net cost of illegal immigrants and their families ranges from something like $35,000 to $150,000 over their working lifetimes.

National Academy of Sciences, Average $100,000 per illegal immigrant not even counting the cost of educating his/her children. Non-partisan enough for you?

My figure came from the Dept of Immigration.

The filing fee, from what i can make out, is 600 per person to become a citizen.

Multiply that by 20 million which is the estimate.

There is no bigotry in my post. Simply a statement of facts.

20 million illegals means they did not pay their fees.

Its simple math.
