Good job Dan, you are a scholar and gentleman. To bad cnbc wouldn't let you finish your point.

Illegal immigration is currently costing the nation 113 BILLION per year. Staggering! Jails, prisons, overcrowded schools, hospitals, foodstamps for kids they can't afford along with welfare (yes they get welfare) . Thats all the "free" stuff they take. Forming gangs , drug crimes like "kidnappings" and killings take police resources. Drug networks pushing poison across the nation, I could go on.......

@SophosVII According to the United States department of Labor. During the year 2000, the unemployment rate was 4%. During 2008 at it's worst, Unemployment reached 10%. once again, where are you getting your information?

@SophosVII Ozzy was talking about drug gangs, not drug addiction rates! Mexico supplies our country with drugs. They are so powerful that they rival the Mexican government with power. The reason mexicans don't get addicted as much is because Americans pay more for weed than the average low waged Mexican. Please don't post anymore misinformed comments.

@SophosVII About Medicare, do you realize how many anchor babies are benifiting from Social services because their parents have untraceable income? Did your misinformed references tell you that? 

[CombatNexon]

@SophosVII 80% of Illegals pay sales tax which is barely anything. The sales tax for every Illegal immigrant in this country would barely add up to $2 billion. Also the Iraq wars costs about $2 billion a day. The Us does not have $41 trillion as you choose to believe.

Dan Stein destroys them EVERY time. The poor guy from Brookings was thrown in there to defend the indefensible. That "lady" host gives me the impression she really likes the illegal immigration. And Kudlow could care less, just wondering what the market is doing before he takes his helicopter to his mansion god knows where.

Its so amazing how this guy was able to destroy the opposition, even when he was cut off, I applaud him, time to watch another video with him in it

[SeanScythe]

3 vs 1 and they talked him down everytime he started to make a point.

@Ozzy4eve lastly let me mention that unemployment in Mexico has been around 4% for decades and went up to 8% in the worse moment of their modern history, whie the US hovered around 12% until 1982 according to Us dpt of Labor, and that it has decreased constantly ever since. I also would like to know how many of those 20 million unemployed Americans are welfare sponges or simply too rich to work... but that is info I dont have at hand.
