American Generosity

Americans do more to help people in other countries, by far, than do people in any other country. Every nation has natural resources and/or natural beauty that could produce great wealth, but liberal or left-wing governments have ruined or held back the economies in many countries. Thus, Newsweek reported that half the people of the world have to get by on $2.00 or less a day. These people are wondering if they are going to get enough to eat, not what they are going to buy at the mall. So, you cannot blame them for wanting to come here. However, our entire infrastructure—our schools, roads, hospitals, jails, sewers—just could not hold the massive influx of people who would come here if we simply opened our borders. Robert Rector of the Heritage Foundation said, "One of the goofiest things anyone can say is that we need to bring in more immigrants to take care of our problems with Social Security." "In fact," he added, "taxes are going to have to be raised on baby boomers to pay social security for immigrants." The Heritage Foundation study on this situation found that 50 to 60% of illegal immigrants are high school dropouts. The findings were that the average low-skill household would receive an average of $33,395 annually in government benefits over taxes paid, for a lifetime cost of $1,669,750 for each household headed by an illegal immigrant high school dropout.
