Please explain to me again how illegal immigration helps the US economy?

they don't help the economy they hurt the economy. they work for less money so we loose out some jobs. they're abusing the welfare system so things are cutting back. their kids are overcrowding our schools so our kids are getting less educated.

As a taxpayers i resent to having to pay for the education, medical, and increased car insurance because of illegal aliens. You sir are part of the problem in profiting from this illegal border crossing. Sir, you are no better than the dope dealer who smuggles marijuana across the border for sale in the US. What you are doing is illegal and your children will pay for this in the form of an exploded mexicans population that will eventally engulf us in third world policies. You sir are making a profit from these law breakers but the chickens eventually will come home to roost. Its like the old commerical with the guy selling the oil filter, you can pay me now or pay me later. Your children will be picking up the tab for your cheap labor. thanks.

Our own federal government is who it helps. The government invites immigration to America because they make money off of them believe it or not.

When people hire illegals to work, they have to pay a portion to the federal government.

When immigrants open up businesses, they government pays them to do that by federal grants and other monies.

I would imagine that it helps the economy because of the opening up of businesses and the money that is paid to the federal government.

As far as what it costs taxpayers for so many years, especially since none of them had to pay (only the ones with Visas or green cards had to pay taxes-and they were lower than ours), I can't see that it helped that part of the economy.

It also costs so much for all of the free services that they received that you mentioned.

I hope this helps. It is all confusing to me. :-)

It relieves Americans of a LOT of extra cash they would other wise spend in our own economy which then prevents it from .... OVERHEATING. Wow. All you have to do is watch out for a crash and then you know the illegal aliens have taken to much and soooo... you stop them.

This showed up in the Las Vegas Newspaper and it is one very good article on the operations of the Border Patrol on the Yuma Sector Border. Read it ... it tells us the fence they built down there works. WORKS. Good article.

Success in curbing illegal immigrant crossings has agents looking elsewhere

The fence worked, and now they seem to be doing bus stations inland. That being the case, things might actually be changing. And I sure want to see it with my own eyes.

first at all do you have any reliable data which supports your claims ? , and do you even know how much the state of California spends total in health care , welfare ( which undocumented immigrants don't qualify for ) and education ? i bet not and im sure than if you actually had that number you would realize how ridiculous your numbers are . so how do the undocumented immigrants help the economy ?

one ) the large majority are very hard working people which earn every cent they spend in whatever they wish , their hard work is valuable to America , of course with out their hard work America would produce less , less production means a negative when it comes to economic terminology .

two ) when they spend that money that actually helps the economy because IF they weren't around less cars would be sold in America , less houses would be rented/sold in America , less clothes would be bought in America , less of everything would be sold and of course it doesn't take much to understand than this is obviously positive to the economy .

plus in case you are not aware 87 percent of the economist believe the undocumented immigrants are positive to the economy , so are you gonna claim this has not value ? , i really hope not because then the joke is on you .

EDIT :

Schwarzenegger himself has said than the undocumented are not the root ( are not to blame ) of the economic Problems California has , so again : WHERE are you getting your misinformation from !?

They help the economy because native Texans buy more ammo to protect themselves from the eventual second Mexican war before they overun us with illegals first(first covert tactical wave=illegal immigration)

It doesn't it just causes problems and La Raza is joining the unions to protest in Washington.

Its called Operation Restoring Marxism and I cannot for the life of me see any relationship betweeen La Raza and the unions.

I thought the Unions were helping us get jobs. I guess they are just way too Communist for that I guess.

You dont think Pablos real name is "Mickey o donnell" now did you.

Even illegal aliens buy McDonald's.
