More economic damage.

If you look at the FAIR website ...

..there is a breakdown of the cost of allowing illegals into the US. It looks like around a $900,000 / 100 illegals / year... welfare, education, health, housing etc. If there are millions, then that is one hell of a cost. Keeping that inflow under control is a significant cost saving.

I don't pay any attention to FAIR, an extremist anti-immigration group. Their estimates are trash and have been for years.https://www.cato.org/blog/fairs-fiscal-burden-illegal-immigration-study-fatally-flawed

Numerous studies by reputable economists show that immigration, including illegal immigration, has substantial net economic benefits to the US. Just one: https://cmsny.org/importance-of-immigrant-labor-to-us-economy/

Less illegals mean less criminal activity. What damage are you referring to?

Numerous studies show crime rates for undocumented immigrants are lower than for the native born.https://www.americanimmigrationcouncil.org/fact-sheet/debunking-myth-immigrants-and-crime/

That is the kind of delusional nonsense that makes illegals believe they are doing the US economy a favour by entering illegally. Serves them right everytime they get their disgusting butts deported.

The ballpark murder rates are as follows:
- Black communities especially innercity projects - 35 to 45 / 100,000
- Immigrant communities - 16 to 25 / 100,000
- White communities especially suburban - 2 to 5 / 100,000

So yes compared to blacks, immigrants are saints, but they are the devil compared to whites.

Well, there it is, racism writ large.

Anyone else want to admit to anything?
