    What if the illegals left?

    Somebody really did their homework on this one. Best on the subject to present date.

    What if 20 Million Illegal Aliens Vacated Americ...a?

    I, Tina Griego, journalist for the Denver Rocky Mountain News wrote a column titled, "Mexican Visitor's 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 and illegal migration stopped. But what would happen if all 20 million or more vacated America? The answers I found 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.

    In Colorado, 500,000 illegal migrants, plus their 300,000 kids and grandchilds would move back "home," mostly to Mexico. That would save Colorado an estimated $2 billion (other experts say $7 billion) annually in taxes that pay for schooling, medical, social-services and incarceration costs. 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. At least 200,000 vehicles would vanish from our gridlocked cities in Colorado. Denver's 4% unem ployment rate would vanish as our working poor would gain jobs at a living wage.

    In Florida, 1.5 million illegals would return the Sunshine State back to America, the rule of law, and English.

    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 coffers.

    No more push '1' for Spanish or '2' for English. 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 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!

    Losing more than 20 million people would clear up our crowded highways and gridlock. Cleaner air and less drinking and driving American deaths by illegal aliens!

    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 an $8.7 trillion debt. $8.7 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. It would also put the 'progressives' on the horns of a dilemma; illegal aliens and their families cause 11% of our greenhouse gases.

    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 colonials. (I've seen them personally in Texas and Arizona; it's sickening beyond anything you can imagine.)

    By enforcing our laws, we could repatriate them back to Mexico. We should invite 20 million aliens to go home, fix their own countries and/or make a better life in Mexico. We already invite a million people into our country legally annually, more than all other countries combined. We cannot and must not allow anarchy at our borders, more anarchy within our borders and growing lawlessness at every level in our nation.

    It's time to stand up for our country, our culture, our civilization and our way of life.

    Interesting Statistics!

    Here are 14 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')

    3. $7.5 billion dollars are spent each year on Medicaid for illegal aliens.

    4. $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!

    5. $27 billion dollars are spent each year for education for the American-born children of illegal aliens, known as anchor babies.

    6. $3 Million Dollars 'PER DAY' is spent to incarcerate illegal aliens. That's $1.2 Billion a year.

    7. 28% percent of all federal prison inmates are illegal aliens.

    8. $190 billion dollars are spent each year on illegal aliens for welfare & social services by the American taxpayers.

    9. $200 billion dollars per year in suppressed American wages are caused by the illegal aliens.

    10. 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 t he US.

    11. 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.

    12. 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.

    13. In 2006, illegal aliens sent home $65 BILLION in remittances back to their countries of origin, to their families and friends.

    14. 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 !

    The local paper here did a very indepth research project on this topic several years ago. Their finding was quite interesting. Included in the article was a projection of how many businesses would go out of business if all illegal aliens left and how many "legal" folk would loose their jobs. It was not an insignificant number.

    What if the illegals left the U.S.? Sectors of the agricultural business would collapse. Many, many businesses would go out of business--restaurants, hospitality, mom and pop stores, etc. There would likely be deflation, and across the board wage decreases.

    You mean the liberal media came up with claims they cannot prove.

    I'm always amazed how much Christians care for their fellow man...as long as they are American. Not once have I heard anybody say, what would happen to the 20,000 or so that we want to boot out of the country?

    Your homework for this week - if you decided to accept:
    A) How much money does the US govt send as non-military aid to foreign counties
    B) How much money do American citizens send as private donations to foreign countries.

    Only can be proved if all illegal aliens are kicked out of the country. Of course, you can not disprove their stance.

    By the way, our local paper is about as non-political as a paper can be, that is why it is affectionately called, "The Crab Wrapper." It is very good paper for wrapping up crab shells where the crab meat has just been eater. Wrap up the crab shells and throw them in the trash.

    How many restaurants, lawn service companies, roofing companies, house cleaning services and construction companies would go out of business in your area if all illegal aliens were thrown out of the country?

    This is an excellent article, full of facts and numbers that should be looked at with an open mind.

    In the LA area just last year, it was reported that the city and county spent more than $650 million dollars on welfare for the illegals! http://dailycaller.com/2013/09/17/r...elfare-benefits-to-illegal-immigrant-parents/

    The State of California for whom I once worked and recieve retirement from spends 10 BILLION a years on illegals - http://usgovinfo.about.com/od/immigrationnaturalizatio/a/caillegals.htm

    These are just numbers that I know of locally in my state. Plus we have 5 to 10 hit and run accidents a week in Southern California, and once these criminals are arrested; it turns out the are illegals that didn't stop because they had no license and feared deportation!

    Our schools are forced to hold bi-lingual classes. In fact, when I taught courses for the state child care licensing program in the southern Cal region, I was required to teach those classes in both English and Spanish. So I had an interpreter at all classes. I also became quite fluent in Spanish over the years, and could just about carry my own in question and answer time!

    I am not against immigrants coming to this or any state in this Union. I just want to see it done according to our laws. Laws that provide vetting a person, performing a medical exam, and not taking in anybody and everybody that has a heartbeat and breathes!

    We have been over run by illegals because of the lack of enforcement of our policies by the last few presidents. Of course, as much as I loved Ronald Reagan, I still say he opened a never-ending flood gate when he issued that amnesty order years ago.

    It was only logical that illegals would come here believing that they would catch a break with a liberal, bleeding-heart administration, fearful of deporting illegal aliens.

    It would not hurt my area at all because we do not use illegal immigrant labor in this area.

    You mean teenagers can work in a English speaking environment where coworkers don't despise you through exclusion and work mowing lawn like we did to earn some summer money.

    Could you please rephrase your post? I can't make sense of it.

    I think he is saying that American teenagers can't cut grass with all of the hatred spewed toward them from immigrants. Because we all know that immigrants hate nothing more than the American youth working in the landscaping business. This will be a debate topic between Presidential candidates someday.

    I think he means that American teens are the minorities in entry level jobs and because they can't speak foreign languages they are despised by the immigrants. Also if there weren't so many immigrants taking the lawn mowing jobs, American teens would be able to make some pocket money.

    If so...he's wrong.

    The truth is that many Americans despise immigrants because they don't speak English and that American teens rarely take lawn mowing jobs because they believe it is beneath their dignity.

    That is the truth. It has been a long time since I have seen a teenage boy mowing a lawn. Also, if they would be willing to work they could make good change in the summer mowing yards and in the winter with a snow blower.

    What is readily apparent is that I have more faith in America's business owners and the people of America than you do. We will find a way to make it work.

    Case in point...if there truly is a shortage of labor, wages will increase, not decrease. That's just the way it works.

    The doomsday approaach just doesn't work for me. I still believe in America and it's people.

    Yes, wages will have to increase and small businesses will have to shut down, which was his point that you are somehow helping him make now. Sheesh.
