Awwwwwww ... FoxNews reports that NYC is positively SCREAMING
about the cost of supporting all those illegals it PROMISED
to be a sanctuary to. Something like 5 million a DAY, so far,
just for their basics. Add in all the hotel rentals and new
cheap housing and policing and health and ..........

SO funny to hear THEM complain - as The Problem is ten or
twenty times WORSE down nearer to the border and Joe isn't
doing much to comp THEIR costs.

Border states - DO rent more busses. NYC or bust !!!

Bring the border TO those 'sanctuaries' and watch things
change - FAST.

Joe thought he'd punish those 'red' states, mostly down
near the border. FLIP that.

Does the Fed have the authority/clout/money to stop
the transportation of the illegals ? A *very* ill-defined
issue. Any attempt to enforce such a rule would trigger
DECADES of turmoil in the courts. SO many angles on it,
so little agreement.

Meanwhile ...

Economic benefits of illegal immigration
outweigh the costs
May 18, 2020

The economic benefits of illegal
immigration are greater than the
costs of the public services
utilized, according to an expert
at Rice University�s Baker
Institute for Public Policy.

Indeed, for every dollar the Texas
state government spends on public
services for undocumented immigrants,
new research indicates, the state
collects $1.21 in revenue.

"Undocumented residents have a
positive influence and impact on the
economy, since they pay taxes and
fees and constitute an important
part of the labor market," he wrote.
�Even if we consider the costs of
undocumented immigrants to the state
of Texas, the benefits outweigh the
costs.�

Rodr�guez-S�nchez used Texas as a
case study because "it is one of the
most populous states in the United
States, with an unauthorized
population considered representative
of that of the whole country,"
according to the paper.

In 2018, the year on which the report
is based, Texas had "an estimated 1.6
million undocumented residents,
representing 5.7% of the total state
population," according to the paper.
Those residents support the economy
by working in industries such as
construction, agriculture,
manufacturing and services � with an
unemployment rate of only 5.7% in the
state, according to the paper. They
pay sales tax and consumer taxes,
such as on gasoline and motor vehicle
inspections.

In fiscal year 2018, Texas collected
$2.4 billion in state taxes from this
group.

Rodr�guez-S�nchez also analyzed the
potential impact of deporting all
such residents from Texas. "In this
case, deportation would represent a
shock to the Texan economy,� he wrote.

"If all undocumented workers were
deported, Texas would lose more than
$41.9 billion in direct employment
compensation, defined as pretax salary
and wage earnings. The total lost would
be $70.3 billion, which represents a
reduction of 7.7% in state employment
compensation," he wrote. "If even 20%
of this group were deported, the state
would lose approximately $8.4 billion
in direct employee compensation, and
the total impact would be $14 billion."
