More Info on Amnesty Bill

Even if it was not inviting a flood of uneducated, unskilled, culture changing Third World immigrants, the almighty cost of this disaster is ruinous. This is how the Left want to spend YOUR money.

Human Events has a little greenback breakdown for your edification:

“There is no year that [immigrants] pay more in taxes than they do in benefits,” said Rector. “By the time these individuals reach retirement…how could they be anything other than a fiscal disaster?”

According to a special report by The Heritage Foundation, the immigration bill will rack up $2.4 trillion in total net governmental costs of all amnesty recipients during their expected 18 years in retirement. Because the majority of immigrants are high school dropouts, it is unlikely they can compensate for the governmental benefits provided them. In fact, immigrant households headed by those without high school diplomas, receive more than three dollars in benefits for every dollar paid in taxes.

Broken down, the immigration bill will cost legal, taxpaying Americans an average of $30,160 per immigrant family (headed by those without high school diplomas) to house, health, feed, educate, protect, and transport. There are at least 9.3 million adults that benefit from the bill. Bill sponsors and supporters refuse to label it “amnesty,” but those at the press conference argued that’s exactly what it is.

After referring to the bill as a “sham and deception,” Rector continued, saying, “It’s not only an amnesty bill, it’s an amnesty with a blank check written on the U.S. taxpayer.”

In essence, immigrants are rewarded for their behavior while law abiding Americans dish out the prize money.

Is anyone asking why we are importing uncultured, Third World, high-school dropouts? Don't we have enough of our own? If we want "diversity" in immigration, how about some smart, college-educated, industrious, smart, entrepreneurial Austrians?
