Considering the Denver Post is a very liberal paper I'm surprised they
published this. This really shows how the hiring of illegals is a false
economic practice.
Tina Griego is a Free-Lance reporter for the Denver Post. She writes some
really good stuff and she is a strong advocate for LEGAL Immigration
homework on issues is part of her make-up and fabric!
What if they left?
Not Democratic, not Republican, not liberal, and not conservative. Just the facts by a good reporter!
What if 20 Million Illegal Aliens Vacated America? I, Tina Griego, journalist for the Denver Rocky Mountain News wrote a column
titled,
"Mexican Visitors' Lament."
I interviewed Mexican journalist Evangelina Hernandez while visiting Denver last week.
Hernandez
said, "Illegal aliens pay rent, buy groceries, buy clothes. What
happens to your country's economy if 20 million people go away?"
Hmmm, I thought, what would happen?
So I did my due diligence, buried my nose as a reporter into the FACTS I found below.
It's
a good question...it deserves an honest answer. Over 80% of
Americans demand secured borders. What would happen if all 20 million or
more vacated America? This may surprise you!
In California, if 3.5 million illegal aliens moved back to Mexico,
it would leave an extra $10.2 billion to spend on overloaded school systems, bankrupt hospitals and overrun prisons.
It would leave highways cleaner, safer and less congested. Everyone
could understand one another as English became the dominant language
again.
It means
12,000
gang members would vanish out of Denver alone. Colorado would save more
than $20 million in prison costs, and the terror that those 7,300 alien
criminals set upon local citizens.
Denver Officer Don Young and hundreds of Colorado victims would not
have suffered death, accidents, rapes and other crimes by illegals.
Denver
Public Schools would not suffer a 67% dropout/flunk rate because of
thousands of illegal alien students speaking 41 different languages
. Denver's
4% unemployment rate would vanish
as our working poor would gain jobs at a living wage.
In
Chicago, Illinois, 2.1 million illegals would free up hospitals,
schools, prisons and highways for a safer, cleaner and more crime-free
experience.
If 20 million illegal aliens returned 'home,' the
U.S. economy would return to the Rule of Law.
Employers would hire legal American citizens at a living wage.
Everyone would pay their fair share of taxes because they wouldn't be working off the books. That would
result
in an additional $401 billion in IRS income taxes collected annually,
and an equal amount for local, state and city coffer
s.
No more confusion in American
schools that now must contend with over 100 languages
that degrade the educational system for American kids.
Our
overcrowded schools would lose more than two million illegal alien kids
at a cost of billions in ESL and free breakfasts and lunches
.
We would
lose 500,000 illegal criminal alien inmates at a cost of more than $1.6 billion annually. That
includes 15,000 MS-13 gang members who distribute $130 billion in drugs annually and would vacate our country
.
In cities like L.A.,
20,000 members of the '18th Street Gang' would vanish from our nation
. No more Mexican forgery gangs for ID theft from Americans! No more foreign rapists and child molesters!
America's
economy is drained. Taxpayers are harmed. Employers get rich. Over
$80 billion annually wouldn't return to the aliens' home countries by
cash transfers. Illegal migrants earned half that money untaxed, which
further drains America's economy which currently suffers a $20 trillion
debt. $20 trillion debt!!!
At least 400,000 anchor babies would not be born in our country, costing us $109 billion per year per cycle. At least 86 hospitals in California, Georgia and Florida would still be operating
instead of being bankrupt out of existence because illegals pay nothing via the EMTOLA Act.
Americans
wouldn't suffer thousands of TB and hepatitis cases rampant in our
country - brought in by illegals unscreened at our borders
. Our cities would see 20 million less people driving, polluting and grid locking our cities' greenhouse gasses.
Over
one million of Mexico's poorest citizens now live inside and along our
border from Brownsville, Texas, to San Diego, California, in what the
New York Times called, 'colonias' or new neighborhoods. Trouble is,
those
living
areas resemble Bombay and Calcutta where grinding poverty, filth,
diseases, drugs, crimes, no sanitation and worse. They live without
sewage, clean water, streets, roads, electricity, or any kind of
sanitation.
The New York Times reported them to be America's
new ' Third World ' inside our own country
. Within 20 years, at their current growth rate, they expect 20 million residents of those colonias.
(I've seen them personally in Texas and Arizona; it's sickening beyond anything you can imagine.)
We
already invite a million people into our country legally/annually, more
than all other countries combined- with growing anarchy at our borders.
It's time to stand up for our country, our culture, our civilization and our way of life. Interesting statistics below!
Here
are 13 reasons illegal aliens should vacate America, and I hope they
are forwarded over and over again until they are read so many times that
the reader gets sick of reading them:
1.
$14 billion to $22 billion
dollars are spent
each year on welfare to
illegal aliens (that's Billion with a 'B')
2.
$7.5 billion dollars are spent each year on Medicaid for illegal aliens
.
3.
$12 billion dollars
are spent each year on
primary and secondary school education
for children here illegally and they still cannot speak a word of English.
$27 billion
dollars are spent each year for
education
for the American-born children of illegal aliens, known as anchor babies.
5.
$3 Million Dollars 'PER DAY' is spent to incarcerate illegal aliens
. That's $1.2 Billion a year.
6.
28% percent of all federal prison inmates are illegal aliens.
7.
$190 billion dollars
are spent each year on illegal aliens
for welfare & social services by the American taxpayers
.
8.
200 billion dollars per year in suppressed American wages are caused by the illegal aliens
.
9.
The
illegal aliens in the United States have a crime rate that's two and a
half times that of white non-illegal aliens. In particular, their
children are going to make a huge additional crime problem in the US.
10.
During the year 2005, there were 8 to 10 MILLION illegal aliens that
crossed our southern border with as many as 19,500 illegal aliens from
other terrorist countries.
Over
10,000 of those were middle-eastern terrorists. Millions of pounds of
drugs, cocaine, meth, heroin, crack, guns, and marijuana crossed into
the U.S. from the southern border.
11.
The
National Policy Institute, estimates that the total cost of mass
deportation would be between $206 and $230 billion, or an average cost
of between $41 and $46 billion annually over a five year period
.
12.
In 2006, illegal aliens sent home $65 BILLION in remittances back to their countries of origin, to their families and friends.
13 The dark side of illegal immigration:
Nearly one million sex crimes are committed by illegal immigrants in the United States!
Total cost -a whopping
$538.3 BILLION DOLLARS A YEAR!
