ACCORDING TO OBAMA, ENGLISH & LITERACY LOATHING ILLEGALS WILL MAKE AMERICA SMARTER!

White House Says Amnesty Will Make U.S. Smarter


Last Updated: Mon, 12/06/2010 - 1:37pm

As it pushes the lame-duck Congress to pass an amnesty bill, the White House claims that legalizing millions of illegal immigrants will help the U.S. economy, support military troops and make the nation smarter.

In its desperate attempt to convince Americans that the soon-to-expire Congress should approve the contentious DREAM Act, the White House compares the measure to a popular Chinese herb known to improve cognitive function. Like Ginkgo Biloba, the DREAM Act will make the country smarter, according to the No. 1 argument on a White House list titled “10 Reasons We Need The DREAM Act.”

Scheduled for vote in the U.S. Senate this week, the DREAM Act offers illegal aliens a pathway to citizenship if they obtain an American high school diploma and enter college or the military. It also provides heavily discounted tuition at the nation’s public colleges and universities, leaving U.S. taxpayers with a monstrous $6.2 billion annual tab, according to a recent study of the tuition subsidies that will be provided under the law.

Most Americans resoundingly oppose the DREAM Act, which not surprisingly has the strong support of Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano who says it will help “separate the bad guys from the good guys.” In a last-ditch effort to sway public opinion, the White House issued its laughable argument for enacting the amnesty bill, which it refers to as a “common-sense piece of legislation” to help “those brought to the United States as minors through no fault of their own.”

Besides, “Uncle Sam says the DREAM Act supports our troops,” because it represents an opportunity to expand the recruiting pool, according to the White House. The economy boost theory comes from a study conducted by a notoriously liberal California university that advocates for open borders. It claims that the DREAM Act could add up to $3.6 trillion in taxable income over the course of the careers of the legalized illegal aliens.

Evidently, the folks in the Oval Office ran out of creative ideas to advocate for the amnesty law because the No. 10 reason is…drum roll….”It’s the right thing to do: ”It’s just plain common sense and it’s the right thing to do.” Sounds convincing, doesn’t it?

Illegal Immigration and the Federal Budget

Illegal Immigration and the Federal Budget



Executive Summary



This study is one of the first to estimate the total impact of illegal immigration on the federal budget. Most previous studies have focused on the state and local level and have examined only costs or tax payments, but not both. Based on Census Bureau data, this study finds that, when all taxes paid (direct and indirect) and all costs are considered, illegal households created a net fiscal deficit at the federal level of more than $10 billion in 2002. We also estimate that, if there was an amnesty for illegal aliens, the net fiscal deficit would grow to nearly $29 billion.



Among the findings:



Households headed by illegal aliens imposed more than $26.3 billion in costs on the federal government in 2002 and paid only $16 billion in taxes, creating a net fiscal deficit of almost $10.4 billion, or $2,700 per illegal household.





Among the largest costs are Medicaid ($2.5 billion); treatment for the uninsured ($2.2 billion); food assistance programs such as food stamps, WIC, and free school lunches ($1.9 billion); the federal prison and court systems ($1.6 billion); and federal aid to schools ($1.4 billion).





With nearly two-thirds of illegal aliens lacking a high school degree, the primary reason they create a fiscal deficit is their low education levels and resulting low incomes and tax payments, not their legal status or heavy use of most social services.





On average, the costs that illegal households impose on federal coffers are less than half that of other households, but their tax payments are only one-fourth that of other households.





Many of the costs associated with illegals are due to their American-born children, who are awarded U.S. citizenship at birth. Thus, greater efforts at barring illegals from federal programs will not reduce costs because their citizen children can continue to access them.





If illegal aliens were given amnesty and began to pay taxes and use services like households headed by legal immigrants with the same education levels, the estimated annual net fiscal deficit would increase from $2,700 per household to nearly $7,700, for a total net cost of $29 billion.





Costs increase dramatically because unskilled immigrants with legal status -- what most illegal aliens would become -- can access government programs, but still tend to make very modest tax payments.





Although legalization would increase average tax payments by 77 percent, average costs would rise by 118 percent.





The fact that legal immigrants with few years of schooling are a large fiscal drain does not mean that legal immigrants overall are a net drain -- many legal immigrants are highly skilled.





The vast majority of illegals hold jobs. Thus the fiscal deficit they create for the federal government is not the result of an unwillingness to work.





The results of this study are consistent with a 1997 study by the National Research Council, which also found that immigrants' education level is a key determinant.
