How much money do illegal immigrants cost America?
I have been meaning to focus on our illegal immigrant problem for quite some time, especially in light of California's dire financial situation and Arizona's growing crime problem. My girlfriend forwarded me a chain letter this morning and while I typically ignore them, this one looked about right.
I have not verified all the numbers, but when dealing with illegals numbers change so often it becomes impossible to track them all. So I am going to copy and paste the following chain letter full of sources and links. Do yourself a giant favor and start sending this around, as always any errors please leave in the comment section so we can edit accordingly.
