I think we should send Mr. Fox a big fat bill for all the "dignity, willpower and work" of his illegal aliens that the US taxpayers are currently footing.

How exactly are they costing us? I'm curious to hear your answer.

By using public services that they aren't paying for: schools and health care mostly.

What about the cost savings on the products/services we use and the SS that many of them pay but don't use (b/c they're using someone else's #)?

Yeah, I figured that's where you were going with that.

There are two sources of "income" from illegals: Those who work for below minimum wage (cash workers) and those who use fake SS #s to take "normal" jobs that pay no less than minimum wage. The cash workers don't pay SS.

So, where does the "income" go from those two places? For the cash workers, the wage differential b/w cash and minimum wage + taxes goes into the pocket of the employer but, in competitive situations, can be passed through in the form of cheaper strawberries. For the illegals using fake SS #s, the SS money is sitting in a mythical vault somewhere in DC.

So, in your hometown, illegals are flooding the school system and the health care system and the DMV and a host of other public services. Your property taxes are skyrocketing because the social infrastructure must expand to accomodate the extra demand created by the illegals - new schools, higher budgets for social programs, more money for uninsured patient health care, etc., etc., etc.

So, given what happens to the income created by the cash-worker illegals (lines the pocket of the employer or cheaper strawberries) and the income by the fake SS minimum wage or higher illegals (vault under the white house), it should be fairly obvious that the feel-good notion of "cost-savings" does absolutely nothing to address the burden that they create.
