Ok. If you say so. I thought their original source references were pretty good.

For example:
Article 1:
The Social Security Administration

“Congressional Response Report: Social Security Administration Benefits Related to Unauthorized Work,” Social Security Administration, Office of the Inspector General, March 2003
Harvard economists George Borjas and Lawrence Katz

Article 2 and 3:
A study of the impact of immigration on New York City’s restaurant business

Kenyon College economists

Agricultural economists Wallace Huffman and Alan McCunn of Iowa State University

A 1997 National Academy of Sciences study

A 1998 National Academy of Sciences study

If I have a large house that I worked for and my neighbors decide that they want to move into my guest room it is my right to kick their asses out and lock the door... it is that simple.

People gotta' deal.

You also have to remember that we not only kicked the orginal owners out of the house but also used them as target practice.

Sure, who better to scare into making you richer than someone afraid of the INS.

Most severe drain on social services are Americans. Illegals are only a drain where "I feel" gets perverted as if fact. Facts in NE were blunt. As soon as immigration cracked down on illegals, the resulting recession was so bad that local governments asked immigration agents to leave. That is reality.
Care to cite that happening?

Only facts you post are really facts, everyone that post contradictory facts are to emotional to be believed. Well, excuuuuuuuse me.

Meanwhile illegals are some of the most product members in local economies.
You keep saying that. You must really like oppressing them.

By the way, that bullshit about the government making money on unclaimed refunds paid in federal tax?
How many people that don't have a mortgage and filled out the W-4 form properly, get a refund? Pretty few I'll bet.

Even though you want to exploit illegals so you can get your veggies cheaper that doesn't make them stupid.
If you knew you were illegal and weren't going to file, no less get a refund, wouldn't you pad the W-4 form with plenty of Dependants to minimize the tax bite? Well since you couldn't figure it out, I guess the illegals are smarter than you.

You're right, it's a whole nation... a whole lot worse.

How is that relevant to us now? None of us did that and none of us need own it.
We have one of the most liberal and easy to navigate immigration and work visa systems in the world, anyone is welcome to legally utilize it.
