[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Someone needs to explain exactly why these people are being terrorized and what threat they present to the general public.

Also, how does this help with inflation or any of the other issues facing our country?[/quote]

Who do you think is paying for their medical care and public school services?[/quote]

They are paying taxes. Clearly you don't understand that, but they are.[/quote]

Their taxes do not cover the cost of heightened  services they need in schools. Citizens are covering their ER medical costs. [/quote]

According to this research, undocumented people pay more in taxes than the services they consume: https://www.kff.org/racial-e

Please cite your research.[/quote]

That does not hold true in areas with large numbers of undocumented renters. [/quote]

They still pay income taxes, payroll taxes,  sales taxes, excise taxes, property taxes on vehicles, etc., and, if you understand economics, renters pay property tax indirectly because the landlord includes the cost of the property tax in the rent price. [/quote]

They get free medical care and schooling at the expense of American taxpayers, I understand the desire to do better for your family but either we have laws as a country or we don't. Resources are not infinite, people are simply fed up, Americans have been generous for a very long time but it's not sustainable. This is not about being mean or nasty, it's just that this set up is simply not sustainable.[/quote]

They pay the same taxes you do. [/quote]

Not only do they pay the same taxes, but if they are undocumented, they don't get the benefits. So their productivity is a net positive to the US budget.[/quote]

Go share your fairytale at the nearest public s hool with 60% or more ESOL kids. [/quote]

This is a DIFFERENT ARGUMENT. We were discussing health care. [/quote]
