The high cost of not spending money on immigration control

WorldNetDaily: Illegals cost Texas $4.7 billion:
"According to the group, even if the estimated tax contributions of illegal immigrant workers are subtracted, net outlays still amount to more than $3.7 billion per year, costing the average, native-born Texas household about $725."

If you think that maybe these figures are not to be trusted because they come from the Federation for American Immigration Reform which is not exactly unbiased, then look at my earlier posts examining published figures for the high cost of just some public services for illegals in New Jersey and Virginia.

At some point, people will have to wake up to the fact that the uncontrolled immigration policy is weakening a none too robust economy and that controlling borders will be cheaper than not doing so.

Thanks for taking the time to mention our study! We suspected the number was going to be high but this was an eye-opener.
