Cost of Joe Biden’s Open Borders: $200 Billion, Paid by You
 
By Mark Krikorian on February 13, 2023
An internal City Hall memo says Biden’s open border will cost New York City taxpayers $4.2 billion through the middle of next year, double Mayor Adams’ previous estimate.

And those costs won’t stop even if Washington magically decides to start enforcing the immigration laws — because millions are already here.

One of the reasons the number is so high is New York’s “right to shelter” law, which requires the city to house all comers. But even without that provision, and even once the border-jumpers start working (legally or otherwise) and paying taxes, the net costs to taxpayers nationwide will be enormous.

A few years back, the Center for Immigration Studies used data from the National Academies of Sciences to estimate the lifetime net fiscal impact (taxes paid minus services used) for each illegal immigrant, not counting their U.S.-born children.

The legitimate powers of government extend to such acts only as are injurious to others. But it does me no injury for my neighbor to say there are twenty gods, or no god. It neither picks my pocket nor breaks my leg.

I think there should be a "Kick their Asses Out" act which calls for politicians who don't put the welfare of American citizens before the welfare of people from other countries. are automatically thrown out of congress. :im waiting:
