"Mexican visitor's lament"

Tina Griego, journalist for the Denver Rocky Mountain News wrote a column
titled, "Mexican visitor's lament" -- 10/25/07.

She interviewed Mexican journalist Evangelina Hernandez while visiting
Denver last week. Hernandez said,

"They (illegal aliens) pay rent, buy groceries, buy clothes...what happens
to your country's economy if 20 million people go away?"

That's a good question, it deserves an answer. Over 80 percent of Americans
demand secured borders and illegal migration stopped. But what would happen
if all 20 million or more vacated America? The answers may surprise you!

a.. In California, if 3.5 million illegal aliens moved back to Mexico, it
would leave an extra $10.2 billion to spend on overloaded school systems,
bankrupted hospitals and overrun prisons. It would leave highways cleaner,
safer and less congested. Everyone could understand one another as English
became the dominant language again.
b.. In Colorado, 500,000 illegal migrants, plus their 300,000 kids and
grand-kids would move back "home," mostly to Mexico. That would save
Coloradans an estimated $2 billion (other experts say $7 BIL) annually in
taxes that pay for schooling, medical, social-services and incarceration
costs. It means 12,000 gang members would vanish out of Denver alone.
c.. Colorado would save more than $20 million in prison costs, and the
terror that those 7,300 alien criminals set upon local citizens. Denver
Officer Don Young and hundreds of Colorado victims would not have suffered
death, accidents, rapes and other crimes by illegals.
d.. Denver Public Schools would not suffer a 67 percent drop out/flunk out
rate via thousands of illegal alien students speaking 41 different
languages. At least 200,000 vehicles would vanish from our gridlocked cities
in Colorado. Denver's four percent unemployment rate would vanish as our
working poor would gain jobs at a living wage.
e.. In Florida, 1.5 million illegals would return the Sunshine State back to
America, the rule of law and English.
f.. In Chicago, Illinois, 2.1 million illegals would free up hospitals,
schools, prisons and highways for a safer, cleaner and more crime-free
experience. If 20 million illegal aliens returned "home" --

If 20 million illegal aliens returned "home," the U.S. economy would return
to the rule of law. Employers would hire legal American citizens at a living
wage. Everyone would pay their fair share of taxes because they wouldn't be
working off the books. That would result in an additional $401 billion in
IRS income taxes collected annually, and an equal amount for local state and
city coffers.

No more push '1' for Spanish or '2' for English. No more confusion in
American schools that now must contend with over 100 languages that degrade
the educational system for American kids. Our overcrowded schools would lose
more than two million illegal alien kids at a cost of billions in ESL and
free breakfasts and lunches.

We would lose 500,000 illegal criminal alien inmates at a cost of more than
$1.6 billion annually. That includes 15,000 MS-13 gang members who
distribute $130 billion in drugs annually would vacate our country. In
cities like L.A., 20,000 members of the "18th Street Gang" would vanish from
our nation. No more Mexican forgery gangs for ID theft from Americans! No
more foreign rapists and child molesters!

Losing more than 20 million people would clear up our crowded highways and
gridlock. Cleaner air and less drinking and driving American deaths by
illegal aliens!

Drain on America's economy; taxpayers harmed, employers get rich are some of
the problems.

Over $80 billion annually wouldn't return to their home countries by cash
transfers. Illegal migrants earned half that money untaxed, which further
drains America's economy which currently suffers an $8.7 trillion debt.

At least 400,000 anchor babies would not be born in our country, costing us
$109 billion per year per cycle. At least 86 hospitals in California,
Georgia and Florida would still be operating instead of being bankrupted out
of existence because illegals pay nothing via the EMTOLA Act. Americans
wouldn't suffer thousands of TB and hepatitis cases rampant in our country
brought in by illegals unscreened at our borders.

Our cities would see 20 million less people driving, polluting and grid
locking our cities. It would also put the "progressives" on the horns of a
dilemma; illegal aliens and their families cause 11 percent of our
greenhouse gases.
