Illegal Aliens Versus Actual Americans: The Stakes Of The $33T Parasite Party

“And on the unjust enrichment charge, Richard will agree to pay Hooli for the phone charger.” – Silicon Valley

Where do Orcs go to school?  Uruk-Hai.  (meme as found)

Enrichment.  I mean, who doesn’t feel that when they think about illegal alien invaders, since they’re like Orcs crashing a Hobbit© potluck?  On thinking about them, I came up with what I thought was a very interesting idea.  What if illegal aliens were the key to . . . a painless recession that helped all the Actual Americans?  I mean, by leaving.

Let’s look at the results of kicking illegals out or not having them show up in the first place:

  • Lowered home prices. Up to 40 million illegals living in the United States, millions of whom showed up in the last few years puts pressure on home prices.  Sure, some illegals are helping to build homes, but they’re consuming more than they create.  If the invaders left that lowers demand for the existing home stock.  Sure, some markets might  continue to be unaffordable, but I don’t want to live there.  The result?  Young Actual Americans would be more able to afford homes.
  • Crime would go down. Yes, I’ve heard the argument that illegals commit fewer crimes than Actual Americans, but any crime they commit is one that won’t happen if they’re not here.  Since we already have all the recipes, you can still go and get a burrito.  We’ll keep the burritos, you take the banditos.
  • Wages increase. Since the early 1970s, the share of wages for the average worker when compared to corporate profits has plummeted.  Why?  We offshored manufacturing because someone asked, “Hey, wouldn’t it be a good idea if we imported everything and allowed foreigners decades to figure out how to optimize manufacturing?”  But beyond that, we imported hordes of illegal and legal aliens for the jobs that remained because someone asked, “Hey, wouldn’t it be a good idea to import tons of people who can’t complain about hours or conditions?”
  • Prices for (some) goods and services may go down. Why?  Fewer people competing for those goods and services.  If profits are high and demand decreases, prices fall.  Profits are at an all time high.  You do the math.
  • Pressure for more infrastructure decreases. 40 million more people means millions of miles or roads, sewers, water lines, curbs, and schools.  It’s 10% infrastructure for the rest of us . . . for free!

Easiest way to tell if a high school student is on drugs:  ask him what a gram is.  See!  The metric system is useful for something.

  • Schools have more resources. Speaking of schools, not only does the teacher/pupil ratio get better, but fewer services are required since illegal aliens need enhanced services due to language and “special needs” issues.
  • Government growth is dropped. Illegals LOVE government doing things for them and always clamor for more.  And they get more.  GloboLeftElite politicians also LOVE giving illegals benefits that Actual Americans don’t qualify for.  Without illegals, this slows government growth.
  • Lower fraud. SNAP (federal Supplemental Nutrition giveaways) wouldn’t be used to pack the fridges of half of the food trucks in Los Angeles.  More food would be available for purchase, and prices would go . . . down.
  • Lower health care costs. Illegals use the emergency room as their go-to medical facility, clogging it up for colds that an Actual American would go to a doctor for, and paying nothing.  Well, they pay nothing.  You and I foot the bill for them because they have zero health insurance (except for government handouts), so why not go to the emergency room for a Tylenol®?
  • Higher costs for strawberries and lettuce. A few labor-intensive farm products will increase in price.  Be honest, though:  if strawberries doubled in cost you wouldn’t care.  Especially not if your taxes and inflation overall went down.
  • Farm profits would go down.   This would hurt farmers.  But it would hurt big corporate farmers the most.  Maybe they’d have to pay a market wage without illegals pressuring it down.
  • Lower remittances going abroad. Over $70 billion in wealth is shipped out to foreign countries in remittances.  This could be kept at home with Actual Americans using it to buy something they liked instead.  Like PEZ®.

Finally, I saved the crown jewel for last:

Higher economic growth.

Well, that might be a lie.  Economic growth would actually decrease for the first year or so.  That’s the textbook definition for a recession:  growth decreasing for two business quarters.  And, I’m okay with that, because growth can be good or bad.

Said differently:  all growth is not good, and all contractions aren’t bad.

I built a model of Mt. Everest.  My friend asked, “Is it to scale?”  I had to break his heart when I told him it was just to look at.

What happens if the recession is caused by removing illegals?  Let’s look at the numbers:

Since the vast majority of illegals are Hispanic, it just so happens that we have a good guess at the lifetime impact on the economy of a Hispanic person.  It came in the form of a meme, but it’s footnoted.  So, science.  I guess.

Drumroll:  in the early 2010s, someone did an estimate of the net lifetime contribution of a Latino.  The answer was:  -$588,000.  Again, that’s over their lifetime.  I imagine that illegals cost far, far more than the average Hispanic American.  The average third-gen Hispanic American who was born into an English-speaking household from his legal birth and whose name was “Troy” rather than “Esteban” almost certainly is much more productive.

I mean, Troy probably took Spanish in high school and got a “C”.

I wonder what Tay© would say about this?  Or Grok™ as of today? (meme as found)

But those are old numbers.  Let’s update that $588,000 net cost to 2025 numbers.

Wow.  It’s up to over $810,000 now for a lifetime cost.  Assuming a lifespan of 50 years in the United States (illegals, remember) to suck up our resources, over that 50-year span, 40,000,000 illegals would suck up nearly $33 trillion.

If the definition of a parasite is an organism that pulls the life energy from another, then that fits the bill to describe this as economic parasitism.

I think there could be fewer illegals than 40 million, but it’s nearly certain their lifetime costs are higher than the $810,000 estimate, perhaps even double the costs of an Actual American Hispanic.  So, let’s use those numbers.  I think they’re conservative.

He’s lucky it wasn’t the Hawaiian Muslim food truck:  Aloha Snack Bar. (meme as found)

Rough calculations shows that every million deported or averted would save Actual Americans $32 billion per year.  Deport them all?  A net savings for a family of four of $8,000.  Each and every year for their entire lives.

You and your family are contributing about $2,000 EACH just for the luxury of having illegals in the United States, not counting house prices, health care costs, depressed wages, and a dozen other non-economic ways I could think of that illegals are making things worse for Actual Americans.

$2,000.  Minimum.  Each and every year.  Could you use that for something?  Like PEZ™?

Yes, illegals cause economic growth, because they cause economic activity.  But all economic “growth” isn’t good, especially when that “growth” takes away from the wealth and prosperity of Actual Americans.  If economic activity was all we needed, we could peg the gauge by just having Los Angeles illegal riots every night.

Imagine how rich we’d all get off of tearing it all down and rebuilding it every week!

Again, you could quibble with the numbers, and I’ll agree that a meme isn’t a peer-reviewed paper.  But, what university in 2025 would support a professor pointing out that a significant portion of the population is making the country poorer just by breathing?

Thankfully, this isn’t a peer reviewed paper, since those are often created by an entirely different type of parasite, but I digress.

Could it be that we’re enriching ourselves to death?  What I’ve written about here talks only about the financial ways in which illegals are screwing all the Actual Americans.  Aliens, both illegal and legal, also put on intense cultural pressure.  Remember, diversity is our weakness, and multicultural empires Balkanize in horrific ways based on that weakness.  It’s like having a United Nations cage match, but in your backyard.  More on that in a future post.

The Riddler™ is fine, but I like the Pun-isher© better. (meme as found)

So, a recession brought about by illegals aliens going home is one I’ll happily look forward too.  And their home countries should be glad to get them – I mean, won’t they feel enriched?  Besides, I think it’s obvious that I’d never be nice to a parasite at one of my parties – I’m not a good host.

  1. According to the chart there’s a different demographic that is entirely more costly. If there was a place, say an island continent somewhere, that demographic could be deported to how much better off we would be. No illegals, no negroes….imagine.

  2. “They” won’t get deported until the CEOs of Tyson, IBF, et al, are arrested. And, stop H1B. Deport the Apus.

    Give (force?) LeRoy & Latifah $100K each to renounce their US Citizenship and move to Liberia. One way ticket & parachutes.

    Let Iran level the terrorist state.

    When silver goes to $100, the “banking” problem is solved as well.

  3. The lifetime cost of an illegal immigrant was most recently estimated in 2024 at negative $68K per illegal immigrant in Congressional testimony, admittedly calculated from old 2012 data. See page 7.

    For some reason since 2012, there just doesn’t seem to have been a lot of effort to illuminate and understand and quantify this issue. Instead, AI and Google steers one to a LOT of data about how much contribution Hispanics as a group make to the American economy, put out by universities like UCLA by guys making sure to put PhD after their name.

    Somehow they don’t differentiate between the economic facts regarding regarding legal vs. illegal Hispanics. Funny, that. Kinda like quoting statistics about how Americans have the highest per capita gun violence rate of any country in the world without separating out the per capita gun violence rates for blacks vs. whites.

    The truth may be out there, but it’s as hard to find as one single perp from Epstein Island.

    1. I don’t believe that number. See a later comment. It’s far too low.

      The reason they don’t look at is the same reason a fat person doesn’t get on a scale: they don’t want to know.

  4. The big problem with parasites is that when you get more than the host can handle, the host dies. We are rapidly approaching that place in America. We could handle 13% of the population being permanently dependent, but when the ratio of productive to parasite gets too high the system will stop working. On the bright side that will mean the illegals and legals alike will self-deport but on the down side, they will leave behind a dystopian wasteland.

    1. We’re past it. Talked to a friend in California – the highways are a breeze in SoCal now, but that’s one person.

  5. The labor cost of a $1 head of lettuce is 5¢.
    So you could deport every illegal tomorrow, and besides all the benefits you noted, you might have to pay legal citizens double the wages of wetbacks, skyrocketing the price of that $1 head of lettuce to…wait for it…$1.05.

    O, the humanity!

    Double bonus, that would more than offset that nickel increase: As exactly none of the money would anymore be getting shipped back to Mexico, Trashcanistan, or Sh*tholia, every penny of those wages would be spent in America, on American goods and services, and taxes would actually be paid on those wages for the first time in 50 years.
    In hockey, that’s called a hat trick. It’s a good thing.

  6. Not sure if you saw this in the news, but the residents of Mexico City recently took to the streets to protest all of the American ex-pats that are living there now. They were angry about the Americans gentrifying certain parts of town and how this was disrupting the economy. They also didn’t like how the gringos were disrespectful towards Mexican culture.

    Let the hypocrisy of that sink in.

  7. Hoping that our limp-d!ck FedGov will suddenly deal coldly and rationally with the immigrant swarm is a pipe dream at best. Hell, they never could come to terms with our native parasites, coddling rather than corralling and taming them like the primitive savages that they are. There is a significant lack of intestinal fortitude among modern day Whites (especially the women) to do what must be done. Therefore, we drown in a sea of brown and black sludge that overwhelms the legacy population and will ultimately dissolve it.

    There is still a little bit of time left to halt the destruction, but there is no plan that is agreeable to squeamish legacy-Americans. And as coach Edwards warns us, a goal without a plan is a wish.

    1. There is a sea change: people are openly confronting them. Their lives are getting unpleasant, and that will increase.

  8. All the effects of getting rid of the invaders are good things … for what is traditionally understood as “America.” But you’re neglecting the truly important question — the one that vitally concerns Our Glorious Leaders. “Is this good for Is’rul?”

    Priorities, John, priorities.

  9. “Why do immigrants strengthen our country and not their own?”

    Because in their own country, they’re not immigrants, obviously. /sarc

    That said, they don’t have to strengthen ~our~ country, they could go to any other country that’s not theirs and give ~that~ country the Benefits of Immigration ™.

    Y’know, with the correct incentives.

  12. “…Sure, some illegals are helping to build homes…”
    .
    YouTuber ‘cyfy’ does home inspections in Arizona:
    https://youtube.com/shorts/wHYRFMU6rbc?si=o5zC9MFS2VFlJT_5
    .
    He frequently discovers urine soaked insulation, urine soaked studs, urine soaked sub-floors.
    These are not healthy people.
    .
    I have a minor quibble with the word ‘builders’.
    The individuals hired as day-labor from the curb at The Home Depot are unskilled assemblers.

    1. LM-

      When I was doing lots of water damage restoration 20 years ago, was amazed at that I’d find behind drywall. Coke cans, moldy/stale/half-eaten honey buns, bent nails, you name it. This never happened when I did construction one summer in college (early ’70s). Daily inspections to ensure work areas were clean.

      1. An empty coke can behind the drywall was a sort of signature memento back then, harmless fun, like writing one’s name on the inside wall for posterity. Craftsman pride sort of thing. The rest of it is just low quality “workers” not tradesmen.

  13. Having dealt with wetbacks (yes, I’m a bigot) as a Peace Officer for over 30 years in SoCal, I can say the “stories” of the poor Campesino just trying to feed his family are leftist fairy tales. And the leftists who tell them are the same hypocrites who hire them under the table to mow their lawns and clean their houses. When I first started as a rookie Jailer, on my drives to work in the County Jail I would see them lined up at the local Western Union Office on the weekends, to wire their wages back to Mexico.
    I was told by the veteran Deputies that this was commonplace and if we started kicking them out of the country, Mexico would financially collapse. Brandon Smith over at Alt Market recently opined this in a very well-written article. Do not get me wrong. I think every single one of these invading parasites from whatever hellhole they came from needs to be rounded up, incarcerated, and deported. I also believe the Golden Golem needs to stand down all the troops “protecting” Poland, Romania, etc. and bring them home to police America’s Northern and Southern borders. Thomas Chittum predicted 2025 America in his book CIVIL WAR II. Plan accordingly. Bleib ubrig.

    1. Don’t be nice to them. Don’t help them. Make it know that they’re not welcome. Let your politicians know. Rat them out to ICE. Be the change you want to see in the world.
