What we have here is a failure to communicate. The dollar amount of the tax burden of illegal immigrants from the years 1990 to 2016 is not a changeable number. It already happened. The purpose of the Yale study was to show that the heritage foundations study grossly underestimated the immigrant population. The Yale study did not count immigrant households, it counted individual immigrants. The dollar amount of the tax burden didn't change, the population size did. The findings of the Yale study have shown that illegal immigrants are not a burden on taxpayers, they actually put more money into the tax system than they take out. The findings have also shown that illegal immigrants are less dangerous than naturalized citizens because they commit less violent crimes per capita than naturalized citizens.
There is one thing about your argument that has me a little perplexed. Obviously I'm not going to convince you that illegal immigrants aren't a burden on American taxpayers. Hey, that's fine, I get it. You have your stats, and I have mine, and we can squabble back and forth for as long as you'd like. But if you're worried about how much illegal immigrants cost taxpayers, why aren't you worried about the cost of the wall? Why don't you care about how much it will impact the national debt? Since when did it become logical to add on a HUGE burden to taxpayers, for the sake of trying to stop the burden from illegal immigrants? I thought we hit rock bottom when people proposed drug tests for welfare recipients. Umm gee, doesn't that add an extra cost to a program that we obvious don't like in the first place, hence the reason we're proposing that the recipients take drug tests?!?! If your problem is with the program itself, why don't we just cut it out of the budget? Adding a burden to taxpayers, just to try and get rid of a burden to taxpayers, is not logical policy! You're not making sense! I'm a hardened Randroid. If you think you can convince me that we must raise taxes to fix the burden of illegal immigrants, I think you'll find you're going up against a wall. You haven't convinced me that immigrants are a burden on American taxpayers. You also haven't convinced me that immigrants are criminally dangerous either. I'm also not convinced that a wall would be effective, so I don't want to pay for a public project that WILL raise taxes.

Just like the argument you made about the maginot line, this is a totally different demographic than the immigrants in Europe. Frankly, European problems should remain European problems. Furthermore, are you trying to suggest that everyone within the US needs to be screened? The overwhelming majority of terrorist attacks in the US were done by Americans. I know you would hate it as much as I would if we lost our freedom of privacy because some wack job goes and kills people because of a supposed "Jewish conspiracy". These South Americans are not coming from countries where terrorism is really a problem. Maybe violent crime and political corruption, but not the type of terrorism we see here. We could close the borders and not let anybody in, but will that end terrorism in the US?

I'm not sure how to properly respond to your argument because I'm not sure what you're talking about. Could you please clarify?

@CYDharta
First let’s start with an obstacle built to the burdens of immigration as general idea in a united state is not a good thing. That generalization of cause and effect aside any study including one from Yale is wrong and does not make a curtail determination in economic outcome prior to any statement that includes increases dollar. Where does the dollar come from? Immigration of any kind is a tax burden so how one group can be ruled out as less burden from others again foolish and misleading as it is a political motivation to hold office. While the only way possible for any immigration issue to put more dollar into a system, then it takes out is if counterfeiting of the dollar is involved. This fact is universally truth with and structured market. The consumer simply does not bring in more dollar then what is there and the dollar is a federal registered receipt.
@piloteer
In reference to the uncertainty of what is said by me. We are not using tax money to build a canal with an adjacent fence we are securing funding to be held for a period as a shift in axiom cost can be used to outweigh expansion cost of a growth set prior in an economy. Economic development for a firm base on rural growth in the Midwest and Southern United States is when structured properly a secure investment holding. As it holds many advantages to the risk of disadvantages it creates. A fence/wall alone is simple a high risk privacy issue with no structure for global long term goal. A project like a massive Sothern U.S. canal and work on the Mississippi is a means to which the United States would be moving its place in world trade back to Center after some-time of abuse.

I believe the wall to be necessary not because Trump says it to be so but because the people who work on the boarder says it is. They are the experts.
As for technology it has it's place too but to rely on it soley is rediculous. People act as if the technology (whatever type it may be short ofsomething that would either freeze the peole in place or exterminate them as they cross and no one wants that) can curb illegal crossing is not considering the fact that boarder patrol agents can't instantly transport themselves to the area that the technology has identfied an illegal crossing has taken place.
As for you who buy into the Democrates cries that it is based on racist views well your just buying into politcal propoganda. Where was the screaming about racisim whenObama quietly removed the wet foot policy that allowed Cubans to stay in the country.
We have border on the Canadian side too. You might argue that we are not building a wall there and I would say so far we havn't needed it. We don't have people rushing the Canadian boarders by the thousands at a time.
Let's take the politics out of this and litsen to what the men and women that work the boarders tell us what they need in order to best control the borders on either side of the country.

...can anyone name ONE proposal that existed BEFORE Donald Trump brought it up during the Election
A bill was sighned for 700 miles of boarder fencing by Democrats under the direction of President Obama in 2014.
https://www.congress.gov/bill/113th-congress/senate-bill/744
Democrats also voted for it under President Bush. This included votes from then Senator Obama, Chuck Schumer, Pelosi and many other Democrates.
So a boarder wall, fencing or whatever you want to call it is not a new idea and was widely supported by both the Democratic Party and the Repuplican Party.
Trump wants a more secure wall and Democrats only turned against it because they seem hell bent on being on the opposite side of any issue Trump wants solved.
This is not an issue of discrimination or not wanting immigrants from Mexico or any other country. This is only an issue because the Democratic Party wants to make it one since President Trump made it a campaign promise and they just don't want to agree with him about anything.
For me though it isn't about what our political leaders are saying. It is about what the men and women on that work on the boarder everyday are saying and they say a boarder wall is needed.

Technology has it's uses but unless a that digital wall is going to freeze people in place it really wouldn't be very helpful. Until Board Patrol can instantly teleport themself to the place where the electronic barrier indicates there has been a breech a so called digital wall is not going to help anything. As it is the drone and video surveillance currently being used leaves them only watching more than half the time because there are no agents close enough to stop them.
So let's take the politics out of this and litsen to those who are the experts.

The liberals refuse to do anything about it?
The Sanctuary Cities, are giving the illegal immigrants, or aliens sanctuary?
If they want to pander to those illegal aliens, then why not build a wall, as an answer to their Sanctuary cities ideological pro illegal immigrant mindset?
So that says to me, that those political representatives in those 300 cities, have basically in a sense, placed, and prioritized those same illegal immigrants, above the safety, and the interests of their own citizens?
And those businesses that have been utilizing the illegal immigrants, under the table, for how many years now, for their cheap labor?
A wall, would be an answer, to their illegal use, of using those illegal aliens for their businesses?
So if there are some US citizens, who say no, to building a wall, then who are they siding with?
The illegal immigrants, or aliens, or the citizens of this country, who are here legally?
And didn't use the Southern Border, to tresspass into the United States, illegally?
And in some cases, exposing their own families to the danger, of coming into the country illegally with their mom, or dad?

You said: SERIOUSLY...can anyone name ONE proposal that existed BEFORE Donald Trump brought it up during the Election race?
I can. 2014 during the Obama administration Senate bill 774 was passed which called for 700 miles of boarder fencing. Sponsered by no other than Charles "Chuck" Schumer and supported by both the Democratic Party and the Repuplican party.
https://www.congress.gov/bill/113th-congress/senate-bill/744/text
A similar bill was also passed under the Bush adminitration in 2006.
https://www.congress.gov/bill/109th-congress/house-bill/1st
So a boarder fence, barrier, wall or whatever you want to call it is not a new concept. Infact it was pretty much a bi-partisan concept until recently.
This was an accepted issue by both oarties until the Democrates decided that they must fight Trump on anything and everything.
The wall is not about discrimination or not wanting immigrants to come to our country. It is about geting some control over who comes in. It's about making it more difficult for drug smugglers and human slave traffickers.
Repuplicans know that and juding by their past voting records so do most Democrates.
So let's take the politics out of it and start litsening to the real experts. The men and women on the boarder everyday. They are the ones who know best and they say we need a wall.

Technology is also useful on the boarder but what is a digital wall going to do? Send a signal everytime someone crosses it? Then what? Because unless this digutal wall is going to freeze people in place until a patrol can get there or the Boardee Patrol has some way of teleporting themselves to that loaction instantly, the majority of the time the patrols aren't going to get there in time. It will be as affective as the cameras and drones are where a lot of the time they just get a video of people crossing and thats it.

Various individuals are making decisions, for the rest of the public, that apparently favor the illegal immigrants, or aliens, over the very citizens of their own country, whether those same law abiding citizens, like it, or not?
Because some are addicted to, the ways, and means, that the illegal immigrants illegal actions have provided for those pro illegal immigrant supporters, by using those various influences, in a sense, against, some of the country itself?
For various types of profits?
So apparently those various profits, are worth it to keep the Southern Border, without a barrier?
It's worth it for those businesses, who have gotten used, to making money off of some of the citizens, from South of the border?
And some interest groups, apparently dislike having their business profits, not to be tresspassed on?
But it's OK, for the illegal immigrants, or aliens, to tresspass into the US illegally, because there are profits to be made from their presence?
So when it comes to 300 Sanctuary Cities, in the United States, exactly what types of "profits," might those same sanctuary cities, be garnering from the illegal immigrants, living in those same cities, with the law abiding citizens?

1. The drug cartels use the allure of the United States to draw foreign immigrants into their sex trafficking business by offering "Escort" across the border. Virtually no one is allowed to make the trek from Mexico into the U.S. without the Cartel's approval and the majority (51% or more) of the people working with the cartel to cross are entering into a violently enforced agreement to either become a sex slave or to become a labor slave. Not to mention the number of female children who get caught by border patrol trying to cross who have reported that they were raped during the journey.
2. The Cartel is using the illegal immigrant movement to transport their drugs across the border. The number of illegal immigrants that are caught every month attempting to cross the border who are also carrying illegal drugs are staggering. Granted the majority of drugs entering the country from foreign lands are at the ports, this still accounts for a problem worth addressing.
3. Children are being sold to coyotes to assist in moving across the border in an attempt to circumvent detention when caught. The number of children that are not only being kidnapped in Mexico but are actually being sold by their parents to people trying to cross the border in an attempt to prevent detention is disgusting. Even CNN has reported that between April and May, over 1,126 families apprehended at the border presented indications of lying about being a family and in that same time period 206 of those cases were proven fraudulent. At bare bones minimum that's 206 children that were exposed to one of the most dangerous travel routes in the United States who didn't belong to the people who had them...and that was less than a 60 day period.

A "wall to keep away immigrants" does not seem to appear in this passage.
It is also worth noting that, up until Wilson's presidency at the beginning of the 20th century the US did not have an immigration system as such; the term "illegal immigrant" did not exist. Anyone who wanted to move to the US could just walk in and stay there permanently without any identification (with the exception of Chinese immigrants, whose entrance was restricted a few decades earlier).
The government has been rapidly expanding since Wilson (and, to a more limited extent, since Lincoln), and adoption of immigration laws was one of the first nails in the Founding Fathers' coffins. Interestingly enough, it was the Republican party that championed open borders up until approximately early 90-s, when the Democratic party started adopting identity politics and realised that immigrants are a valuable identity category to target. Republicans really turned their back on their historical ideals with this one.
Not that Democrats are any better. Despite what they say, their favorite president, Obama, was one of the hardest on immigration presidents in the history of the US (remember the abolition of "Wet Foot Dry Foot" policy on one of the last days of his presidency?), he was the one who created the notorious ICE organisation, and he dramatically expanded the resources spent on the border protection.
As an immigrant myself, it seems to me that each party only supports easier immigration when it is in opposition; as soon as a president affiliated with it gets elected, they flip their stance immediately. Nobody actually cares about us.
Which is fine; I really just want to be left alone. Unfortunately, they have already managed to implement a lot of horrible laws making our continuous stay here increasingly difficult, so even if they do leave us alone (which they have no indication of planning to do any time soon), it will not be quite the paradise we are hoping for.
That is what governments do: make people's lives difficult. I have grown to believe that this is really the only function of a government.

The wall isn't to keep out immigrants. It's to assit the different agencies to keep illegal traffic out.
The last point I would like to make is that not one thing is going to stop all of our boarder problems. Don't you think we should give the law enforcement agencies the tools they say they need to be the most affective?

The US had open borders before the word "socialism" existed. The borders were only closed in the early 20th century, ironically by the Democratic semi-socialist president Wilson.
You are defending a traditionally socialistic policy. Christian countries traditionally had relaxed borders in order to promote trade, while socialistic countries almost always erected iron curtains in order to prevent hungry people from escaping, and enemy spies from entering. Remember Reagan's "Mr Gorbachev, tear down that wall"? Eh, those times when Republicans were globalists advocating for erasing borders, rather than nationalists cheering for self-segregation...

... America had a war with Mexico in that period. What can be a bigger problem from the southern border, than an army crossing it and killing everyone in its path? Still, people did not give up on their principles, which they believed to be more important than some small immediate gains.
Perhaps you should read a bit about the period of "wild West", if you think that Christians obeyed the government in the US always.
America is not dying, but even if it was, nationalists pushing for isolationist policies would not help the situation.

I believe a wall was and will be a very important part of the Howard Hughes canal process to help keep people from falling in the roughly 1,500 ft. wide x 300 ft deep x 79,200,000 ft. long water way Meg infrastructure project. I'm not really stuck on the name but after what aviation has done to the shipping industry and world as a hole, Why not?

"Should the wall be build to keep away immigrants?"
The best type of Immigration Wall to have, would be to make the Ideological notion of Sanctuary Cities, illegal.
I've been through a few Sanctuary Cities, and they are flush with illegal immigrants, where businesses have been built to cater, pander, and coddle them.
It's weird, when we live in a country based on Law's, and there are various Politicians (who went fishing for Votes, by campaigning to the illegal immigrant population in their individual districts) who are in charge of their various cities, are apparently comfortable with compromising their citizens safety, by giving Sanctuary to some of the 22 million illegal immigrants who are in the United States illegally?
If any business has, or have been utilizing illegal immigrants under the table, shut the business down, and arrest the business personnel.
What's more important?
A country based on Law's?
Or compromising the safety of the legal U.S. citizens, by compromising their public safety, by giving illegal sanctuary to any illegal immigrant, or alien?
If the answer is to compromise the safety of the legal U.S. citizen, by giving any illegal immigrant sanctuary, then the answer is, welcome to the (Impolite Civil War,) of the illegal immigrant, being placed on a pedestal above the rest of the law abiding citizens of the United States.
One Wall isn't enough, you need a new Law/ Wall that defends the law abiding citizens from being victimized by the Illegal actions of the Sanctuary Cities laws, that is in a direct conflict with the Law's of the U.S.
The above isn't anti Freedom, because if there are some Politicians who are pro Sanctuary City, then, they are being anti Law abiding Politicians then aren't they?
Meaning that they have compromised their Law abiding principles to illegally cater to the illegal immigrants in their individual districts?
That is what an anti Freedom policy looks like.

"Sanctuary city"
"Sanctuary city (French: ville sanctuaire; Spanish: ciudad santuario) refers to municipal jurisdictions, typically in North America and Western Europe, that limit their cooperation with the national government's effort to enforce immigration law. Leaders of sanctuary cities say they want to reduce fear of deportation and possible family break-up among people who are in the country illegally, so that such people will be more willing to report crimes, use health and social services, and enroll their children in school. In the United States, municipal policies include prohibiting police or city employees from questioning people about their immigration status and refusing requests by national immigration authorities to detain people beyond their release date, if they were jailed for breaking local law.[1] Such policies can be set expressly in law (de jure) or observed in practice (de facto), but the designation "sanctuary city" does not have a precise legal definition. The Federation for American Immigration Reform estimated in 2018 that 564 U.S. jurisdictions, including states and municipalities, had adopted sanctuary policies.[2][3][4] "
"Studies on the relationship between sanctuary status and crime have found that sanctuary policies either have no effect on crime or that sanctuary cities have lower crime rates and stronger economies than comparable non-sanctuary cities.[5][6][7][8] Opponents of sanctuary cities argue that cities should assist the national government in enforcing immigration law. Supporters of sanctuary cities argue that enforcement of national law is not the duty of localities.[9] Legal opinions vary on whether immigration enforcement by local police is constitutional.[10] "
"European cities have been inspired by the same political currents of the sanctuary movement as American cities, but the term "sanctuary city" now has different meanings in Europe and North America.[11] In the United Kingdom and Ireland, and in continental Europe, sanctuary city refers to cities that are committed to welcoming refugees, asylum seekers and others who are seeking safety. Such cities are now found in 80 towns, cities and local areas in England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland.[12] The emphasis is on building bridges of connection and understanding, which is done through raising awareness, befriending schemes and forming cultural connections in the arts, sport, health, education, faith groups and other sectors of society.[13] Glasgow and Swansea have become known as noted sanctuary cities.[12][14][15] "

The political system in this country is based on the principle of decentralisation: the country is split into multiple states, each state is split into multiple counties, and each county is split into multiple municipalities - with each individual unit having a large degree of independence. The federal government does not get to dictate individual cities whether they can provide a safe harbor for specific groups of people or not. If you do not like sanctuary cities, then you are free not to live in them - but you do not get to tell those who do want to live in them to abolish their sanctuary policies.
When will people finally realise that the world is not centered at them, and their individual preferences do not define how the entire humanity should work? Such a simple thought, yet so few people get it...

The wall isn't to keep immigrants out it is to stem the flow of illegal immigration, sex and worker trafficking, drugs,guns, criminals and anything else they want to bring over the boarder illegally.
No politicians are out there trying to stop immigration completely. At least none that I have heard.
