Obama Amnesty Plan Will Cost Taxpayers Trillions

Via Kearney


A researcher from the influential Heritage Foundation estimates that the cost to U.S. taxpayers of President Obama’s pending grant of amnesty to millions of illegal immigrants will be “around $2 trillion.”

So said Robert Rector, senior research fellow in the Domestic Policy Studies Department at the Heritage Foundation, in a November 24 interview with Breitbart News. “The net cost — which is total benefits minus total benefits paid in — of the amnesty recipients I estimate will be around $2 trillion over the course of their lifetime,” said Rector. He added, “What [Obama] is doing is he is putting these 4 million people — who on average have a 10th grade education — into the Social Security and Medicare programs.”

  1. Where the bloody hell is this money coming from? Our infrastructure is falling apart.
    Where quality was always understood, like our beautiful marble and brass filled
    post offices and fire extinguishers made of brass and copper. Post offices now look
    like Jim Walker homes. I don't think there is anything left over for illegals.
