No.... that is the common number cited by the left.

yeah, i'm thinking if they would underestimate how many people so people don't get too uppity about it

Question I would ask is what portion of the government revenue do illegals represent

While the real number tallied is in estimated 22.3 million.

That is the lower estimate...

Conservative estimate.

Becuase if they get a job illegally, then they cant get tax refunds or the like

So any amount deducted goes into the pool

Plus the impact on the local communities they have... they lower the wage for citizens there.

lol

Only revenue that Illegals pay is the sales tax.

That is it Codes.

How long can you dodge the IRS If you hold a standard job?

Eventually they will try to find 'Jacob smith'

the IRS doesn't check your legal status

And then detain them

if you give them someone else's ssn they will gladly take your money

Overall, different assumptions can affect the results. But because the overwhelming share of illegal immigrants residing in the country have not completed high school or have only a high school education, it would require highly implausible assumptions to avoid a substantial net fiscal drain from this population. In short, illegal immigrants are a large net fiscal drain because of their education levels and this fact drives the results. Deportation, on the other hand, is not that costly relative to the fiscal costs illegal immigrants create. Of course, there are many other factors to consider when deciding on the best course of action than just the fiscal balance between removal and allowing illegal immigrants to remain. That said, deporting a large share of illegal immigrants can be justified from a fiscal point of view.

Okay but I just dont see how that would stop them from coming back

build the wall 😛

That is why we should close down border until border wall is built.

Border wall just slows them down to a managable level.

If some has broken the law once then they are more willing to do it again

The killer clown crazy... Michael Myers participated in it.

XD

so, how do you shutdown the border when you have a horde of people willing to violently force their way in?

And who would pay for all the people watching/securing the border while we build a 600 billion $ wall

wouldn't it just be securing the border, which is what should have already been done?

How do you secure something without armed personnel and active duty guards men

hmmmmm

all those inhumane crowd controll tools would do the trick

You get boston dynamics to stick machineguns on 10,000 spot minis and tell them to kill on sight

The problem I have is that deporting all the people already here will just make us lose lot of money, and look bad globally

once boston dynamics secures the border and makes a few examples of people, no one will go near it

Building the wall and then legalizing the ones here would help to resolve both issues

better yet, use AI drone swarms

that would cause massive amounts of political instability
