An argument I hear frequently on the left, is that illegal immigrants somehow "pay for themselves", as though they pay more in taxes than they consume in services. It's so stupid a notion it's hard to believe that anyone could even say it with a straight face.

But here's the NYC mayor saying that illegal immigrants are s#^&#^&#^&#^&#^&g up so much tax revenue, that he may have to cut vital social services to his tax-paying residents.

This is what happens when you advocate for open borders and sanctuary cities.

pay for themselves"

They do Jim . It’s called over time.

Only guys like you would conclude that statement suggests no money is spent

"They do Jim . It’s called over time."

So why isn't the NYC mayor calling it "an investment that will pay #^&#^&#^&#^&? Why didn't your fellow lefties on the Vineyard keep them?

"Keep the open borders just more right wing conspiracies"

Sure Wayne, the border is sealed up tight.

"What are we preaching Jim dignity compassion fair treatment under they law .."

Sure. That's what you're preaching. As long as someone else pays for it and provides it.
