yes it does.... when ever money is being spent it helps the economy. I don't agree with illegal aliens working here but it still doesn't change the fact that it does help the economy..........

Well, there's two sides to that....
The up side is that these companies cuts costs by highering illegal aliens and can pass these savings on to the consumer.
The down side is that it cuts a critical flow of out economy. Taxes. These illegal workers don't pay the taxes we do. They are paid under the table. The use the same roads, police protection and all the perks of being here in the use with out paying for it. For people that own rental property, I sure you can see the evil in this.
When they've worked a certain amount of time, then go back to Mexico ( just as an example ) and spend their new found wealth there. In such, not only are they siphoning jobs away from Americans ( in two ways ), they are taking our money as well.
In short, yes. The illegal work force is bad for our economy in lost taxes, lost wages for American, and lost capital when they return to their native countries.

I don't think so and for this reason: I think that the low wages they make, which they don't pay taxes on, doesn't even begin to compare with the assistance they get in food stamps and medicaid. Not even low paid LEGAL aliens aide in the economy of the USA.

No, they only help greedy business owners. We pick up all their health care and education. They pay no taxes.
