How about the cost of education and medical care, for both the illegals and our own citizens who are catching all the diseases brought from across the border.
And all the cost as a direct result of the replacement of our own work force which is dependent on unemployment compensation and evenually on welfare
and public assistance. You should investigate all these figures and I bet you will end up on the Trillions of Dollars. Have fun doing it .

The cost of medical and education was included, however I didn't include the cost of incarcerating illegal alien criminals and about 30% of our prison population is illegal aliens. I don't have hard figures for the number of jobs they've taken nor the number for total cost of depressed wages.
IF the senate bill passes, the cost will be in trillions as the illegals become eligable for medicare and social security.
