illegals drain billions from the economy each year. Even if you stopped 20% of them by building a wall it would bring a return on investment in like a year or 2.

The vast majority of illegals actaully pay taxes. About $12 billion/year. Also they pay into SS, money which the majoirty of them will likely never see.

 

How are they paying into SS? Are they using someones else SS? If you are getting paid under the table the only tax you are paying is sales tax when you buy something. Do they contribute something? Yes but I'd argue they are an overall negative especially with our overpriced healthcare system.
