The truth of how much illegals cost the US (Part II)

1. Calculating the Cost of amnesty Heritage Foundation is projecting that it will cost U.S. taxpayersan estimated $2.4 TRILLION dollars to covert the retirement costsof illegal aliens who get amnesty under this new bill. But that's just the beginning. Each year, low-skilled illegalalien households cost our society about $20,000. That's becauselow-skilled immigrant households consume 3 dollars in governmentservices for every 1 dollar they pay in taxes (2004 -- received$30,160 in govt benefits and paid just $10,573 in taxes). Add together the annual costs, the retirement costs and the unknowncosts of implementing the amnesty program and rest assured the totalcost to U.S. taxpayers will be multiple trillions of dollars! Senators like Teddy Kennedy love to spend our money. In fact, theydon't even bother to stop and estimate how much of our taxes theyare spending! 2. Sen. Vitter proposes amendment to strip amnesty provisions Sen. David Vitter has offered an amendment that would strip all ofthe "Z-Amnesty" provisions from the bill. Last year, he offered asimilar bill that was defeated. Although we expect this amendmentwill also be defeated, it will help us see which senators trulyoppose amnesty.
