99.9% is my guess

That wouldn't be my guess. What about schools?
And are you counting birth costs that aren't paid by the illegals and food stamps for children born here who wouldn't be born here if the illegals aren't here? Because it is all part of the impact and the illegal parents are the ones not being responsible for their own family's cost in that case.
Your estimate is silly given proven cost figures.

That is a good question and it is hard to know. But in a matters of life, one question does not answer all questions. There are other questions to ask too. Like this one since I have the answer: How much does and Illegal immigrant cost each taxpayer yearly. Answer is $1,100.00
I'd be upset if someone stole that from me ...and they do.
There are other questions but you aren't worh spending the time on past this point. Americans know what our losses are and why they are. The truth is out about illegals and the damage they cause. Folks like yoursefl just add insult to injury. You do little or no good with your racist hatred. In fact you make matters worse for people that really come here for the most part for the right reasons but in their ignorance or foolsihness think they can do so illegaly. We wont allow it much longer. That should be clear to you.

You wish you mean. 33% of illegal aliens are on welfare.
You can't call numbers racist if you don't like them:
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). The total cost for services for these hard working indepenent wonderful people is nearing $400,000,000,000 ($400 BILLION)
Just imagine the REAL poor people we could help with that much money. There are people starving in this world. People without a home. There are AMERICANS in this country going hungry and without heat. This is nothing less than theft at the cost of taxpayers.

it's higher in some states than others. Because (say in CA) the illegals don't have medical insurance they go to the emergency rooms to be taken care of, and that costs a bundle to taxpayers. But the Governor is now demanding that everyone have medical insurance and I think I heard something about a new medical program that their "state" will be providing the illegals. Need more info on that though.

If an illegal is here working in America he is benefiting plenty without having the right to earn a dime in this country.
Deport all illegals upon detection

Eh,,,hello!!!! the fact is that they are ILLEGAL IMIGRANTS and should not be here in the first place of course they do not ask for government benefits, otherwise they would be found out and deported...du!!!!!! O and this also means that they have no tax or national insurance contributions. So they work cash in hand while all of you have to hand over almost 1/3 of your hard earned cash.......still liking them??????? dont think so.

Who cares?!
The still get free health care via emergency rooms and free education for their children via public education. These things of course are not free because legal citizens, with valid SS numbers are working to pay taxes to pay for these service. What you fail to mention is that these services are setup for citizens and legal residents to use. So for every illegal benefiting from these services, one citizen or legal immigrant is being left out.
You want to solve classroom overcrowding: Get rid of illegals and their children.
Wanna fix health care: Ditto!
Lower crime: Ditto
Identity theft: Same.
99.9% may not ask, but 100% have got to go!!

None, they all have families that are in our schools, on some sort of welfare, receives medical care with out being able to pay, etc.
There are more ways to ask for benefits that simply saying I want this or that.

First of all, Beby (who answered above, is in U.S. from Brazil), if you're here legally, this question does NOT apply to you. Thanks for all the hard work.
Whether they ask or not is irrelevant.
Whether they're German, Chinese, Scottish, Mexican or Burundian is irrelevant. Anyone who sees the word "illegal" and reads "racist" is assuming that a particular race never obeys the law and, so, is himself/herself a racist.
If an illegal drives a car, they're adding to traffic congestion - that's an expense for us, a benefit for them.
If their kids go to school, that's an expense for us, a benifit fot them.
I personally know many, MANY illegals who've used our hospitals for all kinds of medical procedures (constantly having babies!) and never ever, EVER even offer to pay. They've joked to me that they have a different fake ID for that so that the hospital can never bill them.
If they ever go to court, that's a benefit for them, expense for us.
Granted, it has been proven that those here illegally often acquire stolen ID's and pay taxes. In fact, a soldier returned from Iraq on leave, he was driving to his niece's birthday party, was pulled over for an out-of-date sticker and hauled off to jail for a DWI dated when he was in Iraq!! Needless to say, HE wasn't guilty, the guy who bought his stolen identity was. The soldier was a noble, legal Hispanic-American, as good a citizen as this country has. Why did he deserve that?
My Hispanic-American lawyer friend has encouraged me to clarify for those of you who are a bit dense on this issue. Now concentrate REEEALLL hard, okay. This might take you a while, but it's worth it to all citizens of this country if you ever finally learn it.
