Add on federal and state taxes, sales tax, property tax, in some cases even income and payroll taxes. Between 96 and 2003, IRS collected 50 billion dollars in taxes from illegals. Here's the article.

Is that a burden?

Studies show that on average, immigrants contribute $80,000 more to social services than they consume per capita. Check it out!

You may complain about all the Hispanics in your prison, but look at the studies comparing the incarceration rates of US citizens vs foreign born minorities. Almost universally, US citizens are more likely to commit crimes. Check out the study here.

The fact that immigrants are more law abiding than Americans is a problem?

Don't buy the bullshit. Immigrants make this country great.

The real problem is with the culture that pushes American-born Hispanics into poverty and crime. Immigrants who don't have this culture do great.
Here is a article by the liberal Austin American statesmen. Topic of discussion is what would happens if Texas passed a Arizona type law to our prison system. We would fill every country jail in the whole state so see how numbers our skewed. I am sure you know how big Texas is you can fit any other 5 states your choice into texas so think about the cost of that.And these quotes are from people that are fighting for the dream act.
My state Texas is the most immigrant friendly state in the union illegals can come here and be safe and work we do it better than anyone. But now we are having problems keeping up. I am 100% behind the dream act but I am also 100% behind that is it. We here in Texas dont mind if the dream act gives everyone there citizenship we just cant take anymore.On a side note Texas gives anyone graduating from high school legal or not legal in the top 5% of there class free college tution at any state school.
