The thing about illegals is....if you deport all illegals--you deport the ones who are a "drain," then you also deport the ones who are contributing (some of them, significantly) in terms of revenues into government coffers....that's where the "net gain" comes in.

I'll examine that a bit later, if I get time. But those are very good questions.
