If people knew how many crimes are committed by illegals; how much money it cost's the taxpayers to support their kids in school and to provide them the free use of our hospitals; how much wages are depressed by their willingness to work for nothing; how many neighborhoods are in ruins due to their total lack of personal attachment to neighborhoods they don't really care about. There would be a hue and cry about the lack of regard for the taxpayers.

I have neighbors who hire them all the time to do renovations and landscaping and such. The landscaping service that does the majority of the homes in my nieghborhood pays them 100$ per day. Yes they work 10 hr days in the summer. But in the fall and spring it is 6-8 hour days. This is not taxed so in reality they are making about 150$ per day if they were taxed. So much for the starvation wages they supposedly make. And where does that money go? Not into our economy thats for sure. It goes back to Mexico. Let one of these brave news programs post the amount of dollars sent into the Mexican economy every year.
