Maybe it's like water for your yard. A little is okay but you don't need 10 feet to of water to destroy everything. A few illegals picking lettuce might be okay but 35 million with many of them laying around on welfare handouts of some kind or another aren't good.
I don't think illegals get welfare, do they?

Of course they do. They know all of the tricks of the trade. They use fraud to obtain benefits, just as they use fraud to work. Others use their US-born children. Lying, cheating, and stealing are staples of the illegal alien lifestyle. For them, it’s as natural as breathing.
