Scumbags everywhere, all sides.
Correct--and NOTHING will improve until we do EXACTLY that.

So would that be less than about $1.16 per meal per adult?

Well they don't have to buy breakfast or lunch because the kids get them free in school.
So it's just dinner and snacks.

Guess you missed the part about 5 ADULTS which was posted. Don't think adults get free lunch and breakfast at "school."

About $2 billion goes to illegals for their citizen children.

This article is last year so the figure could be higher now

Michealene Cristini Risley: Are 'Anchor Babies' Sinking the American Economy?
As far as healthcare, illegal aliens give birth to about 340,000 children nation wide each year, imposing tremendous medical costs on hospitals. Several hospitals, including ones in Stockton, CA and Dallas, TX, report as many as 70% of their deliveries are to non-residents. Similarly, since the parents of infant citizens still qualify for welfare in order to protect the child, the Center for Immigration studies estimates nearly $2 billion dollars goes to illegal aliens annually, in the form of food stamps and free lunches.

Over 29% of all education dollars get spent on teaching anchor babies, including over $1 billion dollars teaching English as a second language, according to FAIR.
The USSC ruled that all children...even illegal alien children should go to school and you are complaining of American children attending school??? Wow.

If your getting your information on immigration and immigrants form CIS and FAIR...big red flag
