Immigration Statistics

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zb-VKzLY33s&feature=player_embedded This video represents the current population growth, and what could happen if we continue our current immigrant policy. Especially with our recent economic crises, illegal immigration has been causing further poverty according to Illegal Immigration Statics.  It shows that many illegals are impoverished already and are normally unskilled labor.  This gives an abundance for one side of jobs, forcing Americans to gain a skill (not necessarily a bad thing). The problem however is that with such an abundance their are limited jobs.  We also face the problem that illegal immigrants do not pay into taxes, but they recieve health, education, and other benefits.  This site has provided that the education for illegals alone costs the U.S. $52 billion.  Is this draining our economy to the point where it is unfixable?
