you'd see that $100,000 per illegal doesn't work out to half a trillion.

That half a trillion doesn't mean annually, Todd. At least not at first. That is a cumulative cost. And that won't take long at all. Once the costs per illegal reach approximately $100,000 multiplied by 10 million illegals or their anchor babies is realized... we have a fiscal tsunami.

Let's not strain your own little brain here. We'll do the math for you, since you can't be trusted to read either.

10 million illegals = 10,000,0000.

Set that number, 10 million illegal equal to the value, "I" for Illegals. Now taking that as our preliminary assumption, let's vary the cost per illegal, from as low as $1 up to the projected cost of $100,000.

I x $1 - $10 million.

I x $10 = $100 million.

I x $100 = x $1 billion.

I x $1,000 = $10 billion.

I x $10,000 = $100 billion.

I x $100,000 = $1 trillion.

As the spendtrhifts in Congress like to say, "A billion here, a billion there, pretty soon we're talking real money here."

The National Academy of Sciences estimated that each immigrant will result in a $100,000 net annual cost to taxpayers.

LOL! I guess you missed the word annual?

Congrats, you've learned to multiply since the first posts were I highlighted your (huge) math errors. Bravo!!

Illegals cost the U.S. too much money. Illegals should be returned to their country of origin and a wall should be built to prevent their return.

Illegals do not cost us $100,000 each per year. Thanks for playing. Let me know if you need any more help with your math skills. You've come a long way. We're all very proud of you!!

You never found any math errors by me, Todd. I corrected you in your massive math errors.

Anyways, again you fail to read...the $100,000 net annual cost per illegal is a future eventuality. It is an incremental process of reaching those amounts. At any rate, at some point they get up there. In the interim, presumably, the numbers are less. But they won't stay "low".

Really? This wasn't a math error? Maybe it was just a reading error?

Where?

That's what I said in post#16. You're slowing down in your old age.

You are the one "caught" LOL! You can't prove your point. Really? This wasn't a math error? Maybe it was just a reading error? >

Really. It wasn't a math error. Nor a reading error on my part. But obviously yours!

And you could never handle this rejoinder:

China's peg is to the dollar. Not anyone else. Currencies plural is a convenient ambiguity. But basically a fictional ambiguity... It is the U.S. dollar that is the big enchilada here. The currency of their "main enemy" [ as officially described in all Chinese Communist military literature ].

Now all you need is a source to back up your assertion that they bought $195 billion in treasuries.

Are you still claiming the Fed sets the rate on T-Bills? Or that the Federal Reserve can't reduce the money supply?

Now all you need ...

No, you need to do your homework. And you can't.

Tell everyone how much homework you did for post #44.

Surprised you have such a biassed outlook, that is so blindered. Looks like about right

That was funny!

And it was right. Glad to see you have a sense of humor about being disproved.

Hmmmmm...post #44 you say 100k a year each "Looks like about right"

Then in post #63 you say "...the $100,000 net annual cost per illegal is a future eventuality"

I love it when you tap dance and still contradict yourself. Same old Paul.

Get back to me when you figure out that the Fed does not set the interest rate on T-Bills. Thanks!

That is Bush's home state, he had a front row seat for the show of letting the mexicans take over. It'll be interesting in 10 or 20 years what kinds of politicians we have elected in these states that have such enormous mexican populations.

I lived in So CA for 40 yrs. moved to AZ 2 yrs ago, so this issues is up close and personal. If you read 12 million illegals, you know you can bet its really 20, they find places in the woodwork, don't think anyone really knows. However, do know this that every major metropolitan city in CA is near bankrupt, shocking ... but how can this be when CA GDP is better than most other 1st world countries? Its because of all the hidden cost of illegal immgration.

I live in southern California and joke is it is soon to be called Mexifornia...but it is no joke.

I got called for jury duty and you know what?...if you can't speak English you are excused automatically. We are getting called on more and more often ... the pool of eligable jurors is declining as the Hispanic population ...legal and illegal grows. I live in San Bernardino county and it has a huge Hispanic population and more and more there is refusal to learn English and assimilate...the situation is dire...
BUILD THE DAMN FENCE!! ENFORCE ENGLISH ONLY!!

I live in southern California

I live here too, and it is becoming a clone of Mexico.

I'm sick of paying the bills for invaders. I'm sick of seeing our schools fail. I'm sick of seeing our hospital emergency rooms closing. I'm sick of hearing about new diseases that we have to be exposed to. I'm sick of anchor babies. I'm sick of seeing illegal aliens who can't speak English working everywhere. I'm sick of Mexico.

I'm sick of this president who has put us in this position by his refusal to enforce the laws of this nation.
