Illegals cost L.A. County over a BILLION Dollars a year
We all know the drill. The guy that released this information will be attacked as a racist, insensitive, etc.. and they'll claim his facts are all wrong. In fairness, this is just one side of the coin as it doesn't guestimate how much illegals pay in taxes. BUT I've heard this "They're good for the economy" argument until I'm ready to barf. Let me put it to those, that try to make that argument, this way: If they're SOOOO great for the economy then the best thing we can do for the economies of their native countries is to ship their butts back.
LA County Supervisor Michael D. Antonovich has announced that a new report shows illegal aliens and their families in Los Angeles County collected over $35 million in welfare and food stamp allocations in July.
“Illegal immigration continues to have a devastating impact on Los Angeles County taxpayers,”said Antonovich. “In addition to $220 million for public safety and $400 million for healthcare, the $440 million in welfare allocations bring the total cost to County taxpayers that exceeds $1 billion a year -- this does not include the skyrocketing cost of education.”

I believe the figure maybe higher. I teach elementary school in Los Angeles sodaily I see and deal with the results of illegals swamping our systems.
All individuals should not get to benefit from their illegal actions or the illegal actions of their parents.
