Happy May Day: Illegal Aliens imposed more than $26.3 billion in costs paid only $16 billion in taxes, creating a net fiscal deficit of almost $10.4 billion, or $2,700 per illegal household

These figures are from NewsBusters. Seton Motley exposed a problem with a CBS report that cited Rand Corporation study “that asserts that the cost to the taxpayer for health care for “all undocumented men, women and children” — their words, both spoken and in chyron — is $1.1 billion per year.” The problem with that study is that it examines only “nonelderly participants — those between 18 and 64″. What about the children? What about those older than 64? From the Center for Immigration Studies’ “Costs” report page:

Households headed by illegal aliens imposed more than $26.3 billion in costs on the federal government in 2002 and paid only $16 billion in taxes, creating a net fiscal deficit of almost $10.4 billion, or $2,700 per illegal household.

Now that’s more like it!

  1. Give your rich Democrat office holders the bill, not your vote.

  2. I’d rather mail each and every one of them the picture of the 11 yr old who was raped and impregnated by an illegal alien who was out on bond. He’s sitting in Sheriff Joe’s jail now. He won’t be getting bail this time.
