Unfortunately, that's incorrect. Illegals put a burden on our entire  
system. Not saying that our system is any good. That's another  
problem, but unrelated to illegals.

See, what happens, is they come here, and they get a bunch of under  
the table type jobs, and then start using services, like the  
Emergency room and such, and misc other public services, but they  
don't pay any taxes. They get caught, they're deported home and have  
to come back again. There's no reason for them not to.

The thing is, the USA is a melting pot... Our immigration plan should  
work like a melting pot, where you add some shavings, and they melt  
into the mix, you get them immigrants speaking english, and learning  
some of the culture before you add more, otherwise they just make  
their own little communities. That's what's happening today, just  
like if you threw a bunch of several pound blocks into a melting pot,  
instead of the shavings... they're not going to melt down and  
conform, so really, the problem isn't that we have immigrants, or  
even that we have illegal immigrants... it's just that we have too  
many coming at once, and we can't absorb them into the communities we  
already have. It's not our problem, it's every other person that  
wants to immigrates problem. Sorta like the fire marshall putting a  
max occupancy sign on the door of a building... it's not that he's  
trying to keep people out, it's just that the facility can only  
handle so much. But it's our facility, and so it's an issue that  
needs to be addressed by us, so we can allow more immigrants.
