Nope, but some of us have other things to do than post on FR.
I’ve wondered about the accuracy of Census Bureau and other official sources for statistics, most of which seem to come in around 10M to 12M for illegal aliens.
I’ve had some email discussion on the issue with Mark Krikorian, head of Center for Immigration Studies, perhaps the nation’s leading anti-immigration organization, so not exactly water-carriers for the open borders types.
According to him the Census Bureau numbers are likely to be accurate within 10% to 20% or so. He says auxiliary numbers with regard to school admissions, emergency room usage, etc. make it impossible for there to be 10M+ more illegal immigrants in the country than what the CB says.
I realize Mr. Walsh differs. I suggest you or Mr. Walsh get in touch with Mr. Krikorian if you wish to argue the point.
IOW, I have a source, you have a source. My sources are much better funded and organized. You believe my sources are part of a giant conspiracy to deceive the public. I believe your source is a typical conspiracy theory fruitcake.
More critically, I believe “immigration activists” have no incentive to hide the numbers of illegal aliens. In fact, their incentives run the other way. They’re all upset about the next census undercounting them, which will negatively impact funding for their jurisdictions, representation in Congress, etc. They even want to introduce statistical sampling and “adjustment” of the actual count in order to get the numbers up where they think they should be.
I only work 60 hours per week so I have plenty of time to post on FR.
