美国非法移民的代价：每年$115 billion

有人认为，美国非法移民对美国的贡献很大，更进一步地认为，美国社会甚至占了非法移民的“很大的便宜”！

那么请看Fedeartion for American immigration Reform（FAIR）的报告：

其要点如下：

Key Findings

--Illegal immigration costs U.S. taxpayers about $113 billion a year at the federal, state and local level. The bulk of the costs some $84 billion are absorbed by state and local governments.

--The annual outlay that illegal aliens cost U.S. taxpayers is an average amount per native-headed household of $1,117. The fiscal impact per household varies considerably because the greatest share of the burden falls on state and local taxpayers whose burden depends on the size of the illegal alien population in that locality.

--Education for the children of illegal aliens constitutes the single largest cost to taxpayers, at an annual price tag of nearly $52 billion. Nearly all of those costs are absorbed by state and local governments. At the federal level, about one-third of outlays are matched by tax collections from illegal aliens.

--At the state and local level, an average of less than 5 percent of the public costs associated with illegal immigration is recouped through taxes collected from illegal aliens.

--Most illegal aliens do not pay income taxes. Among those who do, much of the revenues collected are refunded to the illegal aliens when they file tax returns. Many are also claiming tax credits resulting in payments from the U.S. Treasury.

如果说，每年$113 billion和每家$1,117都是非法移民对于美国的伟大贡献，本人就无话可说！
