How much does it cost to have one person here? I mean, do we actually know the costs involved? I suspect a lot of our population costs more to the country than they put in. We've got 11.3 million people in the US illegally, which means 10.5 million more than the DACA people.

How much wear and tear on our roads is that?
How much extra food and fuel subsidy does the government pay?
How much does the government have to pay in police and teachers?
How much does the government pay in accounting and data science and advertising and other public employees?
How much does the government have to pay for emergency services in case of accidents and injuries?
How much does the government have to pay for chronic illnesses like diabetes or HIV?
How much does that cost in food stamps or other kinds of welfare?
How much does that cost our water treatment plants and power grids and garbage dumps?
How much does that cost in cleaning rivers and roads?
What impact does that amount of competition for jobs and housing have on wages and housing prices?
How much money leaves the US and goes to their home countries?

I'm just asking because these are really important questions that I haven't heard any numbers on. I'd be a lot more open to the idea that they should be allowed to stay if I had any idea what the costs involved are.

The government spends more on services than they otherwise would to accommodate these 11.3 million people. And everyone spends a lot of the government's money. How much? It's possible these numbers are small enough that every immigrant is profitable and there's no reason to turn anyone away but I don't even know how many digits long these numbers are.
