Will the pro illegal immigration people explain to me how illegal immigrants help our economy?

Question

I'm looking forward to hearing some thought provoking, well presented answers. I realize it might be awhile.

I do not agree with the idea that we have grown accustomed to exploiting them for short term gain, therefore, we must continue. The long winded answer below is a very biased answer and does not address the issues regarding law enforcement, encarceration, legal representation and healthcare, health insurance, auto insurance the loss of property due to wages declining causing the housing market to suffer which has a chain effect on other industries. Sounds like a lot of pros and no cons, thats not the reality.

Answer 1

lets see have you ever eaten any fresh fruit or vegetables lately?
do you enjoy wine ?
do you like the quality of the construction of your house?
well if you do thank an illegal.

Answer 2

By depressing wages and undercutting labor-protection laws. Both lower costs for companies, allowing them larger proffits which they can then invest in creating more low-paying, unsafe jobs (or pay out in dividends that thier stockholders can use to buy a second yacht or whatever). Anyway, that does add up to more economic activity, not less, so is helping the economy.

Simple, really.

Answer 3

certainty is immigrants are mandatory for the roles others do no desire to settle for, a loss of them has led to many smaller agencies based upon them to fold. a minimum of they're prepared to artwork make contributions to the economic equipment and are not on welfare utilizing up our stressful earned tax funds..human beings desire a wager.the u . s . replaced into equipped on immigrants,and could proceed to desire them to stimulate our economic equipment.

Answer 4

I am anti-anti-immigrants and not pro-illegal immigration. I believe illegal immigration does not really contribute to USA economy as much as it contribute to "other countries" economy, however I don't believe it hurts as much as haters are trying to make us believe, we should enforce our current laws and hold employers responsible and not make this a hate issue as much as some trailer trash, confederate flagers, white hooded are doing it.

Answer 5

"I'm looking forward to hearing some thought provoking, well presented answers. I realize it might be awhile."

Might be awhile? Don't hold ypur breath. You will never get a rationale answer to this question because there isn't any.
Illegal aliens hurt the economy period.

Answer 6

I am not pro-illegal.The only people they are helping are themselves,their families,and cheap Corporate America who refuses to hire Americans and pay them a fair "living-wage."They are not a help,rather a hindrance to the job market as a whole.

The only " white hood I see here is located above"

Answer 8

Without the undocumented immigrant population, Texas’ work force would decrease by 6.3 percent. This decline is actually somewhat lower than the percentage of the work force actually accounted for by undocumented immigrants, since REMI assumes some additional immigration would occur to replace the workers lost. The most significant economic impact of losing undocumented workers would be a noticeable tightening in labor markets.

This tightening would induce increases in wages, as indicated by a rise in average annual compensation rate. Wage rates would rise by 0.6 percent in the first year and stay above the forecast rate throughout the entire 20-year period.

While pay increases can be viewed as a positive social and economic development, when they rise due to labor shortages they affect economic competitiveness. In this case, it would be expressed as a modest decline in the value of Texas’ exports.

The remaining broad economic measures all point to an initial impact of undocumented immigrants of about 2.5 percent in terms of the value of production and wages in the Texas economy. Eliminating 1.4 million immigrants would have resulted in a 2.3 percent decline in employment, a 2.6 percent decline in personal income and a 2.8 percent decline in disposable personal income in 2005. This change also would generate a 2.1 percent decline in the gross state product (GSP), the broadest measure of the value of all goods and services produced in Texas.

What of the charges that undocumented immigrants are free-riding ff the system? As we learned in economics recently, most research indicates that immigrants pay more in taxes than the services they consume. This, however, does not factor in the national military budget as a service consumed.

In addition, undocumented immigrants are shoring up our Social Security system, providing it with a subsidy of as much as $7 billion a year – benefits they will never reap upon retirement. That represented 10 percent of the budget surplus in 2004, the difference between what the system currently receives in payroll taxes and what it doles out in pension benefits.

Many undocumented immigrants also pay taxes using Individual Taxpayer Identification Numbers, which are issued by the Internal Revenue Service to people who can’t get Social Security numbers. When I wrote an article about this in 2003, the IRS had already issued more than 6.8 million of these numbers. About 366,000 returns were filed using individual taxpayer identification numbers in 2001, according to IRS data from that year. People with the tax numbers reported wages of almost $7 billion and paid almost $305 million in taxes, according to the IRS.
