Peter Brimelow, Editor of VDARE.com, introduces Ed Rubenstein, the author of this new and first-of-its-kind report, at an April 8, 2008 press conference at the National Press Club in Washington, DC.
The Fiscal Impact of America's Foreign-Born Population: an exclusive report prepared by Ed Rubenstein for the Social Contract. This assessment of the fiscal impact of mass immigration on 15 Cabinet-level government departments and agencies concludes that these agencies spent $346.4 billion on immigration in 2007 - an amount comparable to the federal deficit! The report also finds that:
- Each immigrant costs taxpayers more than $9,000.
- Each four-person immigrant household costs taxpayers $36,000.
There are four parts to this press conference:
- Wayne Lutton: introduction of report
- Peter Brimelow: introduction of Ed Rubenstein
- Ed Rubenstein, part 1: presentation of the report
