So immigrants cost 10 billion a year, but how much do they put back into the kitty (yes, some do pay taxes and fees, plus their bosses pay taxes), and how much important work that otherwise wouldn't be getting done do they contribute?

Like when you buy a basket of strawberries for $2, wouldn't it cost $4 if illegals weren't around?

I have the feeling they might be a net positive, though I am not defending their right to be here. They have no right. But who's going to arrest them all and send them back? No one.
