Dollars and sense on Immigration

Every public policy no matter how small has a price tag, one way and another. The Cato Institute has figured out what it would mean to legalize illegal immigrants.
A new study from the libertarian CATO Institute concludes that legalizing the more than eight million undocumented workers in the United States would have significant economic benefits for the country, while simply enhancing border enforcement and applying restrictive immigration laws would actually hurt the U.S. economically.


How much benefit? $180 billion.

and even Victor Davis Hanson has admitted that we are NOT going to have the stomach for deporting all of them.
