Yet another strawman. Only the Right wing thinks this stuff up. There are economist who believe that overall the downside and upside will balance and the legalization will provide gains that offset its cost.
How so? Flooding the country with millions of undereducated aliens who have little to no employable skills will only add millions more people needing to draw on limited social program resources. What's the plan to offset the additional government expense? Rationing? What?
Why all those dummies (according to them) who live in flyover country will end up surviving. Let em all kill each other in the wonderful big cities. Herd does need to be culled from these stupid folks.........let em kill each other.
That's one of the reasons I left the Chicago area when I retired last year.

These people are not the movers and shakers to the economies in the countries they are leaving, and yet the liberal Utopian mindset envisions that they will be economic dynamos once they sneak across the US border. Sorry, maybe a few of them will be business owners, doctors etc... in a couple generations, but as of now, they are just wards of the state.
Silly comment on your part, or shouold I say Ignorant comment since your comment was based on your own assumptions and lack of real knowledge. I pay more than my fair share in taxes much of which goes to helping pay for the social programs needed and I give my time and money to charities and have helped out more than one person/family out of my own pocket simply because it was the right thing to do. You were saying?
What's your fair share? What's your effective tax rate? Let's apply that to everyone. Then everyone will be paying their fair share.
Starving children is Humanity's problem. Even if some people want to build a fence around their mountain top compound, they are still a part of Humanity.
So, Bob-
I am sure that you have already sent your $20K check into the feds "for the children".
Tell me................... what benefits would you like to cut for American citizens to pay "for the children" in the absence of liberals actually paying for the care of these people themselves?
Ask a liberal to sacrifice a dime of their own money and you will see how shallow thier convictions really are.
A lot of the neo-cons posting in this thread don't get the difference between an immigrant and a refugee. They'd rather send them back to get raped and murdered in some gang war, though. They'd probably enjoy seeing that happen to all these kids.
Odd as liberals always tell us it is others problems. Now it becomes OUR problem and all is well. Just pure insanity.

Funny all those "children" knew where to buy USA t-shirts Why are they allowing these "children" to have tattoos in their countries at such a young age. Some may be "children" many are NOT! Lies of Obama!
Sounds like the Dems don't even care for their own people they need others to VOTE for them. Looks like the Dems are selling out the very people who voted them in.
Works for me, but just so ya know we have to feed and bus them there otherwise they simply melt into our populace, food and buses cost money.
Let em walk........they made it this far they can walk a bit farther.
