Net Illegal immigration has soared from about 130,000 per year in the 1970's, to 300,000+ per year in the 1980's to over 500,000 per year in the 1990's to over 700,000 per year in the 2000's.

Size of illegal immigrant population
The actual number of illegal immigrants is uncertain because of the difficulty of actually counting illegal immigrants who often do not want to be counted. There are no national surveys, administrative data, or other sources of information that directly provide accurate estimates of this population[5][2].
Investigative journalists Donald L. Barlett and James B. Steele, state in Time magazine in its September 12, 2004 issue, "It's fair to estimate, based on a Time magazine investigation, that the number of illegal aliens flooding into the U.S. this year will total 3 million/year - enough to fill 22,000 Boeing 737-700 airliners, or 60 flights every day for a year."[3]

TOO MANY - even 1 is above what I want to tolerate.
About 3 million is my guess.
