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

I agree that illegals are a net cost, but let's do the math.

1,000,000 illegals x $100,000 = $100,000,000,000 (that's 100 billion) annually. Doesn't add up.

There are 12-20 million illegals.
It does add up.

If there were only 1 million Criminals who overstay their visas or those who just INVADE, we would have a much smaller problem!

It's close enough to be felt by all taxpayers!....conservative estimates by Heritage Foundation put the cost of illegals to California taxpayers alone at 10 billion last year.
