While estimates vary widely, it is undeniable that illegal immigration is a huge drain on our economy, our social safety net system, our school systems and our healthcare system.
Except for all the crap jobs in the service industry and agriculture that native born people refuse to do. Jobs that if went unfilled would cost our economy billions in lost revenue.

Or the money that is funneled into our tax and social welfare system via payroll and withholding taxes.

Do any of your estimates account for that :confused2: :trout:

Since when is pointing out the fact that you are wrong, or at least ignoring relevant facts, nitpicking :confused2:
Do you have any idea how businesses would screech to a halt and lose billions of dollars worth of business if all illegal immigrants were suddenly deported :confused2: :trout:

“These are the only two children that have died (in ICE custody)... considering what does happen in housing projects I think ICE has an excellent record." - Rep. Peter King (R).

Central American kids and Black kids in same sentence!

It took 14 months for the noose to show up.

Fourteen months where Marcus Boyd says he endured racist comments, slights, even threats in a hostile workplace run by General Motors.

A workplace where people declared bathrooms were for "whites only," where black supervisors were denounced as "boy" and ignored by their subordinates, where black employees were called "monkey," or told to "go back to Africa."

A workplace where black employees were warned a white colleague's "daddy" was in the Ku Klux Klan. Where white workers wore shirts with Nazi symbols underneath their coveralls.

In Ohio.

In 2018.
