Quoting: Anonymous Coward 70649762 Same as the have for 40 years now. Less than zero and in the red. Kamala Harris is not a Natural Born Citizen. She's illegally running. Used by the Founders... Book I of The Law of Nations, Chapter XIX, § 212 (Joseph Chitty numbering) – “Citizens and natives” reads: 'The citizens are the members of the civil society; bound to this society by certain duties, and subject to its authority, they equally participate in its advantages. The natives, or natural-born citizens, are those born in the country, of parents who are citizens. As the society cannot exist and perpetuate itself otherwise than by the children of the citizens, those children naturally follow the condition of their fathers, and succeed to all their rights.' 1758 Emerich de Vattel Oh' What the Hell, do I look like I want to die in some nursing home one day... America must have 4 new Constitutional Amendments... 1. Drug Tests and Mental Evaluations on all politicians and judges randomly five times per year. 2. Term Limits for Federal politicians and judges. 3. Mental and health standards for Supreme Court Justices and retirement age set. 4. A 'Star Chamber' of elected Natural Born Citizens (no attorney's) to ivestigate, try, and prosecute the politicians and government employee's as they see fit. Mandatory death penalty by public hanging is the merciful sentence for pedos and their associates. Democrats are a WMD, literally. Let Justice Be Done Though The Heavens Fall. |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 42423409 United States 03/24/2017 01:36 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | How much tax revenue will their children bring in over the next 100 years? Do THAT math. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 70649762 Well, first you have to assume that they would be a net positive population. That the # of people working are contributing more than the people not working are taking in benefits and gov't handouts. Net positive tax revenue may not be as large as you immediately think if it's even positive at all. Second, you are assuming that there will be jobs for them and without them there won't be jobs. The fact is, supply/demand will always determine this factor. If there is demand for all of those jobs and we need those people here, then there will be legal ways for them to come. If there isn't demand for all of them to have jobs then we won't be getting much tax revenue from them...in fact, we would be net negative if having to provide benefits to a non-working population (see point #1). So you can't immediately just assume that everyone will enter the workforce as additive to what will exist in the future. |

Booger Cancer User ID: 13299994 United States 03/24/2017 02:04 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | So tards keep asking, who's going to pay for the wall? Where is the money going to come from to pay for the wall? Its simple. The wall pays for itself simply by the presence of fewer illegal aliens in country. Just like Reagan's military spending resulted in a "peace dividend", which eventually led to budget surpluses a decade later, the Mexican border wall will have a cumulative effect on money not spent, feeding, housing, educating, adjudicating and incarcerating illegal aliens. Mind you that the cost of illegal immigration is estimated to be $148 billion PER YEAR. Even a 1% reduction in the cost of illegal immigration will have the wall paid for in just over a decade. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 73070947 [link to www.nationaleconomicseditorial.com] There are 3 basic types of costs I included in this estimate: 1. Federal Expenses: $31.9 Billion. Expenses incurred at the federal level total $28.6 billion, according to the FAIR report. This number includes things like educational subsidies ($2.1 billion), healthcare costs ($5.9 billion, of which $750 goes to Obamacare subsidies), and justice costs etc. 2. State & Local Costs: $93.3 Billion. This category includes a much broader range of expenses which I won’t go into here. Again, you can get a sense of what this looks like by reading my cost analysis on California. Once adjusted for inflation, as per the Bureau of Labor Statistics calculator, the US government spends roughly $125.2 billion per year on illegal immigrants. This is slightly mitigated by the fact that migrants contribute $14.9 billion in federal, state, and local taxes (inflation-adjusted). 3. Remittances: $38 Billion. The final major category are remittances (money transferred from someone working in the US to their family abroad). For this calculation, I assume that remittances are being sent by first generation immigrants (legal or illegal), and that they are equally likely to remit. I include remittances in my calculation because it’s a financial drain on the country—the money evaporates from the economy, never to be spent domestically or support local businesses. According to Pew Research America lost $133.6 billion in remittances in 2015—$136.9 billion when adjusted for inflation. Given that there are 40 million foreign-born American citizens, and roughly 11.1 million illegal immigrants (again, according to Pew), this means there are 51.1 million people sending remittances. Fantastic thread! Thank you! In addition to the costs listed, how much does it "cost" a family when someone is murdered, run over or raped by sn illegal? Surely there are immense dollar costs and even higher costs to one's emotions. With 8,500 murders committed by foreigners along with tens of thousands of rapes, imagine how much better all of us would be if there were never another murder or rape committed by an illegal. What are the costs when an illegal totals your family's car and kills its occupant(s)? Who here supports an additional 8,500 murders? If you oppose those murders, doesn't it make sense that you would support the removal of illegals and prevented them from returning? Yes, I did cure my Stage 4 cancer in two weeks when I was 48. I also reversed my chronic kidney disease (glomerulonephritis) when I was 25. In neither case were any medical treatments involved. |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 74238107 Switzerland 03/24/2017 02:15 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | That is assuming that all illegal immigrants come from Mexico via walking across the border. But the truth is that Walking Mexican immigrants only make up for a percentage of illegal immigrants. In fact most immigrants that become illegal had applied for a visa of some sort and overstayed their visa. This means that many of them are flying in from many other countries and just not flying out. A wall will only stop those who cant dig, fly, swim, or boat. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 332394 Correct. Australia has illegal immigrants, 95% of them fly in and overstay there visa. The wall might bring the problem down a bit, but not by 100%. Also it will only be a matter of time before corruption hits the wall and a border guard closes an eye for a nice check every once and a while. |
