Scary Math

-
Wow. According to this article, Los Angeles County is in it for about ~~Dr. Evil pinky to side of mouth~~ ONE BILLION DOLLARS (that's "Billion" with a "B") per year.

In what, you ask? In the illegal immigrant payout, of course.

Apparently, that's the cost for the county, including: welfare for the children of illegals, health care, social services, etc.

That's a lot of money... TAXPAYER money.

I can't imagine why some people are getting so spun-up about the illegal issue.

Fortunately, this helpful article includes this "unbiased" disclaimer:

[[ Some in the immigration debate say illegal immigrants are a drain on public coffers. Others say illegal immigrants pay more in taxes than they receive in services. ]]

Allow me to re-phrase that (my changes underlined):

"The cold, hard facts in the immigration debate prove that illegal immigrants are a HUGE drain on public coffers. Others are liberal morons who can't add."

Again... that's "BILLION" with a "B."
