And it's really not my place to find a source for qman.  He made the claim that 'many illegals don't graduate anyway'.  Where's his source?

Speaking of, still waiting on a source for how they destroy the economy and our culture.

The culture thing is not my bag, liberals are doing enough to destroy that in this country.

I understand that many of them come from far more extreme poverty than I did.  My point stands.  There's parents that would have just as soon I not hang out with their kids because I was 'poorly' adjusted.  Or prefer that I go to a different school altogether so I don't destroy their kids 'culture'.

Also see my edit?

Many don't even graduate HS, so where's the return on investment?  There isn't any there.




So I googled CA HS graduation rates.  Most hispanics/latinos graduate.







http://www.nbcnews.com/news/latino/whats-behind-falling-latino-dropout-rates-n232986

"Julian Vasquez Helig, a professor at Cal State University thinks the drop out and graduation data may be overstating the success because schools are now reporting data in a different way and have "gotten really savvy at hiding students."

They are just pushing them through the system, that's not a measurement of success.  I talked to students that went to a high school with a high Hispanic population (33%), the Hispanic students all took classes that were taught in Spanish and then graduated, what a joke. They NEVER took classes with the other students.

There was a lot of other opinions in the article as to what could be going on.  So I don't see how the one guys opinion that matches your own is the point of fact that leads you to this conclusion.

Thanks buddy!  Sadly the Heritage foundation isn't one of the best sources to use.  Their bias is deep and well known and it shows in their methodology.  Here's a couple of criticisms I found of that study.  I'm sure there's plenty more.

Nope, heritage is just as respectable and valid as any of your sources...

This is what libs do, ask for a source, when provided, they come up with excuses that it's not valid. I'm sorry your left wing liberal socialist Marxist statist sources don't research these subjects or feel the need to report honestly on them

Your source is valid, sure.  No one is saying that it isn't a source. People have simply presented criticisms of your source and it's methodology.  You're free to do the same about theirs.  If you can't, however, then we know you're basing your entire argument on a source that has been found unreliable.  You're entitled to do that, of course, but it's not the best way to win an argument or persuade people.

This one says it only costs about a billion a year in welfare to feed U.S. Citizen children of illegal immigrants.  Sounds like a bargain to me.

Also reliable source:

http://www.nytimes.com/2013/02/17/magazine/do-illegal-immigrants-actually-hurt-the-us-economy.html?_r=0

This one is biased, but it is a different angle, and those facts can be verified through government sources.


http://www.immigrationpolicy.org/high-school/top-10-myths-about-immigration

See, the issue is not that Dems are right and the GOP is wrong. The issue is that we pretty much would agree on some things we want in common, but only if both sides of the debate consider all angles and variables of the subject at hand.

Yes, it is a fact that these numbers are were right (at least if you trust the government...), but does it hurt the US as the GOP leading candidates and other pundit-pukers say?

BTW - Current sources
http://www.thefiscaltimes.com/2015/04/16/Study-Finds-Illegal-Immigrants-Pay-118B-Taxes

http://www.pewresearch.org/fact-tank/2015/07/24/5-facts-about-illegal-immigration-in-the-u-s/

Oh, man, that's right... 1997... wow... that was not cool, dude lol

Just because something is 'common knowledge' doesn't mean it's true.  It was easy to backup the claim that the earth was flat at one point in time.  :shrug:

And I don't think anyone is insulting or belittling you.  I'm sorry you're so attached to this view of the world that you feel that way :frown:

You're strawmanning.  And no.

I cited a forty year old quote that showed that EXxon knew about climate change forty years ago and covered it up.

Illegals are NOT eligible for welfare, but when they have a child born in the US they are now using the child's status to use every social service that exists.

Let's look at what started this, Enil said illegals are a boost to our economy, clearly that is not the case,

My point is our welfare should go to support our own before trying to take care of everyone else...

Illegals are supposedly not eligible for jobs here either, are you asserting none of them are working either?
