The long and short is that there has been no definitive answer as to whether illegal immigration is a net negative or positive for us. Undocumented immigrants aren't eligible for government services. They pay taxes in that they don't get back. With or without the wall you would still need spending to combat illegal immigration since so many undocumented immigrants don't cross the southern border but stay on expired visas, and since you still need manpower on the wall and around the border.

Jobs and helping local economies can be achieved through infrastructure spending around the country or the Green New Deal. Replacing crumbling roads and bridges or making us energy independent provide huge long term cost benefits.

Show me some data that says otherwise? Just cause someone says they are bigots doesn't always hold water.

Undocumented Immigrants, you mean Illegals aren't allowed to have Gov benefits, true, but their anchor babies are and that's the issue. The Illegals get to stay and collect benefits through their Anchor. Personally put the USC with a family member that is a Legal citizen and send the parents back to where they came from. One way to slow it down if they know the anchor baby isn't going to anchor them anymore.

Oh and there's always a way to spend the money that sounds better, but the reality is we can save more in the long run than your little projects cost.

And I came right back at you with more numbers that were not based off of the FAIR report. Just admit it, you are on the Don't build a wall side and no number out there is going to make you change your mind cause you are gonna find a flaw and tell us how wrong the reports are with out providing any data that says otherwise. These numbers are astounding and growing annually, even if off by 50%.

Sheesh, I'm going to stop speaking English and claim no understand English and ask the US Gov for a monthly disability check.
