4. Finally, this is the time to recognize that our failed immigration policy must be normalized. This Congress must re-evaluate and change the complete lack of legal recognition of millions of immigrants who are the backbone of the U.S. economy. For example, everyone is aware that there are over 4 million undocumented Mexicans living and working here in the U.S., providing our services, construction, agricultural and other industries with essential labor, by doing the jobs that U.S. citizens and residents do not want. As Alan Greenspan acknowledges, even with the current economic crisis, our economy is dependent on undocumented workers, who are replacing the productivity lost through the aging of our workforce. 19

According to Alan Greenspan, Federal Reserve Board Chairman, congressional testimony, July 2001, "undocumented workers contribute more than their fair share to our great country". He continued to inform Congress that immigrants, including undocumented workers, in essence donate $27 billion to state and local economies.
This is the difference between what they pay in taxes $70 billion and what they use in services $43 billion. Greenspan also testified that in Illinois alone "Illegal workers pay $547 million in taxes yearly, compared to $238 million in services used." This is a net "profit" for Illinois of $309 million.

GAME OVER IS ALSO WITH U AND ALL THE VOTERS WHICH CHOSE THE NEW CONGRESS
No, I 100% disagree with you. This would NOT happen. The US would thrive if illegals were all suddenly removed from the country.
No, it wouldn't. Where ever you have illegal aliens you have a high crime rate along with theft in those areas. American's would be able to thrive without illegals taking jobs that could go to US citizens. There are many who are losing out because of illegals being here. We would be able to live in a cleaner place too...you wouldn't have 20 illegals living in one home collecting their garbage behind the house because they don't want to pay for garbage trucks to pick it up. You wouldn't have illegals tampering with our food supply either, nor would you have illegals coming to the US who are sick with TB and hepatitis illnesses.
let find out if the U.S Economy would crash.
if we needed. we could bring in Millions of Legal immigrants to fill the jobs that illegal Aliens do in a heart beat.
I AGREE WIT U !! BUT ALL THE PEOPLE NEED TO GO TO SCHOOL TO REALLY LEARN ABOUT THIS CASE , INSTEAD OF LEARNING RACISM U KNOW WHAT IAM SAYING?????????????????
TOTALLY DISAGREE! YOU ARE WRONG! You have no evidence that our economy will crash. There is plenty of evidence that our economy will improve.
Besides, WE DON'T NEED THEM!!! May 1, 2006 - "A day without an immigrant" protest. All pro-illegals boycotted schools & businesses. This protest was suppose to shouw how much we needed the illegals and how our system would be crippled if they weren't there. Well they were wrong. Businesses functioned perfectly. Schools were better becasue the teachers could actually teach their students. You could even drive 75mph on "the 101" during rush hour! You can't drive 75 at midnight sometimes.
Pro-illegals claim food prices will rise dramitically. Labor is only a small part of the cost.
This doesn't even take into account the fact that taxpayers won't have to pay for the services that the ILLEGAL aliens demand and extract from us. Why should tax payers have to foot the bill for education and health care for 20+ million people that are blatently breaking the law. They steal jobs and identities!!!!
No ILLEGALS in the US - great! When can we get it! I can't wait!!!
Nope.
Get over it.
Just the opposite, the economy would thrive. Probably be a slight downturn at first, inflation go up some. But the bottom line is they consume more goods and services than they generate.
OR, the jobs that are traditionally done for less than minimum wage by illegals would still have to be filled and to do that the employer would have to raise the pay and we would see American unemployment disappear and wages increase without raising minimum wage.
As for our economy crashing, I don't think so, the illegals are not running major companies or have anything to do with the banking industry. But you would probably have to pay $50 to get your yard mowed instead of $35 but the extra $15 you pay would be going into SSI. SO maybe if all illegals were gone and all Americans were getting higher pay and there was no unemployment SSI would fix itself because of more legal workers and higher wages?
So, how about a guest worker program????? That would allow all illegals to work (and pay into SSI) but as a guest worker you would never gain citizenship or receive benefits?
There are many options but it is not working right now! ! !
Remove all the illegal immigrants and H1-B VISA immigrants and the US economy would suddenly explode with PROSPERITY!
Corporations would have to pay a decent wage, instead of slave labor meaning American families would earn more and enjoy a higher standard of living. More job opportunities would abound.
Life would be good!
I totally disagree for far too many reason to post here. It wouldn't happen ,its just more unfounded pro illegal alien rhetoric and propaganda.
I dont have any respect or regard for any of the people in the links posted below. Big mouths and big business or business associated. Why wouldn't they say that,its the way they get cheap underpaid labor?
So they can continue to make millions if not billions off the backs of illegal aliens,instead of paying legal Americans a livable wage.
It's too bad Alan Greenspan wasn't exposed for the old fraud he is while he was the Fed chairman. When he started mumbling on during some senate testimony about how the United States must open the gates to immigration so we can keep "our" economy growing, it would have been great had we a senator on the committee with the intelligence and character to nail him.
The size of the overall economy is an economic statistic with no value outside its usefulness to frauds like Lawrence Kudlow, Tamar Jacoby, and the editorial board of the Wall Street Journal as a means to hoodwink gullible and short-sighted Americans into acquiescing to the radical transformation of their country through mass immigration.
I disagree with you 100%. Those jobs that the illegal immigrants had previously filled would then be filled by legal citizens/immigrants. Those legal citizens would then put the money they make back into the economy instead of sending it to another country. The economy would flourish by the newfound income. Crime would drop drastically, and we wouldn't be paying for everything that illegal immigrants use. More money in our pockets.
There would be dislocation, however we would flourish at the smaller size we were before once the dust settled.
There is no question the vacuum effect would come first, however. The question is, what else do you suggest to save our ruined schools, lowered wages and drained social services?
Those are very real impacts, as well.
And to Game over, Greenspan and Gates both were discussing legal, SKILLED immigrants, not illegal immigrants who don't pay in taxes what their families use in education and other service funds, fyi.
Do not agree
The USA would be in the black if the social service and education dollars were no wasted on the illegals besides the drop in crime and open jail space

It's not what I think about it, but what I know about it. I know for a fact that the US economy would not crash if we deported all of the illegal aliens today, tomorrow, six months, or a year from now. That is a myth that alot of these "alienists (similar to a racist, but believes that illegals are far superior workers, linguists, morallists, etc.), " like to promote. Illegal aliens only make up less than 5% of the American workforce; therefore, their total disappearance would be nothing short of a nuisance. More people need to read about immigration, both legal and illegal, so that they can understand the effects that immigration has had on America (both good and bad). Additionally, illegal alien workers only work in certain areas, such as manufacturing, food services, construction, hospitality, and farming, that if they lose a portion of these workers, they would not totally collapse (as many ill-knowing "alienists" suggest).
Even if the economy crashed it would be worth it. There are more negatives to illegal immigration then positives. If it means we all have to pay 50 buck to get our grass cut rather then 25 I think we could handle it. Let alone when these illegal immigrants bring kids into this country they by law have to let them into schools. Think of the tax money we all are putting out to school. Minus the illegals we could pay less in taxes.
Ok, but the jobs that these people are doing, were not just made up to give illegal immigrants work. In answer to who is going to do these jobs, the same people who did years ago, hard working Americans. The last I saw, we had like 10 million Americans not working.
NO!!!!! Our economy will NOT crash after the ILLEGALS are DEPORTED!!!
AMerican citizens did these jobs BEFORE the ILLEGALS stole them, and Americans will do these jobs AFTER the illegals are DEPORTED!!!
But, just to satisfy your curiosity, let's say we put YOUR "theory" to the test!!!!
Let all the ILLEGALS leave,and let's just SEE if we can do WITHOUT them or not!!! Any takers???? I thought NOT!!!
i disagree with MOST of the stupid people on here it would crash and they are not taking peoples jobs you know why because they are doing the jobs that nobody else wants to do janitors, fast food etc. i think they all deserve a chance not all of them are bad. Most of them pay their taxes go to work and take care of their bills. all the hard working ones deserve a chance most of them came here so their kids can have a better education i just think its stupid of all you people to judge them when they are hard working !!!!!!!!!!!! F u all that think that think they are nothing and think that they dont deserve a chance!!!!
The US economy would in no way collapse. That's right up there with the moronic remarks of NYC Mayor Bloomberg stating that NYC's economy would collapse if the illegal aliens were deported.
Simply not true, illegals are more of a hindrance than a help. They LEECH from the very system we, as LEGAL Americans, pay taxes into. We've got hospitals closing at an alarming rate, more so in areas with heavy concentration of illegals with false or fake identification. We have school overcrowded with children who's parents don't contribute dime one to the system they LEECH from.
$50 for a tomato? Get real, the one thing that keeps the farm industry from automating the process is the fact they have no incentive. Why invest money in technology when you have people willing to work for peanuts? Personally, I say automate the process, our food supply would be SAFER.
Do you honestly think that whatever financial benefit there may be by hiring these LEECHES is passed on to the consumer or do you think unscrupulous employers are lining their pockets with ill gotten gains?
Lastly, mass deportation of illegal aliens in not unprecedented in this country. In he early '50's Eisenhower ordered a clean up and several hundred thousand illegals were sent back.
You are way off base.
