I’ll tell you what...we spend 100 billion a year in housing, clothing, feeding and educating
FAIR’s “Fiscal Burden of Illegal Immigration” Study Is Fatally Flawed
The Federation for American Immigration Reform (FAIR) is devoted to reducing legal and illegal immigration. Its recent report, “The Fiscal Burden of Illegal Immigration on United States Taxpayers (2017)” by Matthew O’Brien, Spencer Raley, and Jack Martin, estimates that the net fiscal costs of illegal immigration to U.S. taxpayers is $116 billion. FAIR’s report reaches that conclusion by vastly overstating the costs of illegal immigration, undercounting the tax revenue they generate, inflating the number of illegal immigrants, counting millions of U.S. citizens as illegal immigrants, and by concocting a method of estimating the fiscal costs that is rejected by all economists who work on this subject.
You make $5.00/hour at best and let me know you’ll never need a tax payer handout.
My point was we don't spend near that much.
