Check out these figures, has the U.S. gone mad or is it just the people who are running it....
So often, we get caught up in a debate over political semantics and end up ignoring the hard-shell realities of what we're talking about. According to mmigrationCounters.com, here are some of the realities that the Flake-Gutierrez Bill would airbrush out of the picture:


1)Number of Illegal Aliens in the Country
20,807,645

2)Money Wired to Mexico City since January, 2006
$ 22,213,001,672.00

3)Cost of Social Security Services for Illegal Aliens since 1996
$397,450,739,563.00

4)Number of Children of Illegal Aliens in Public Schools
3,958,789

5)Cost of Illegal Aliens in K-12 Since 1996:
$ 13, 965,063,431.00

6)Number of Illegal Aliens Incarcerated
332,594

7)Cost of Incarcerations Since 2001
$ 1,398,127,429.00

8)Number of Illegal Aliens Fugitives
642,799

9)Skilled Jobs Taken by Illegal Aliens
9,872,838

Figures can trick your eyes. Take particular note that items 2,3,5, and 7 reflect BILLIONS not millions of dollars -- and that item 3 exceeds one-third of a TRILLION dollars.


Can you imagine how much it will cost taxpayers if we triple the number of Illegals entering this country!!

So, What's in a Billion?.......


Granted................. this is from the US!

The next time you hear a politician use the word "billion" in a casual manner, think about whether you want the "politicians" spending your tax money.

A billion is a difficult number to comprehend, but one advertising agency did a good job of putting that figure into some perspective in one of its releases.

A. A billion seconds ago it was 1959.

B. A billion minutes ago Jesus was alive.

C. A billion hours ago our ancestors were living in the Stone Age.

D. A billion days ago no-one walked on the earth on two feet.

E. A billion dollars ago was only 8 hours and 20 minutes, at the rate our government is spending it.

While this thought is still fresh in our brain, let's take a look at New Orleans . It's amazing what you can learn with some simple division . .

Louisiana Senator, Mary Landrieu (D), is presently asking the Congress for $250 BILLION to rebuild New Orleans . Interesting number, what does it mean?

a. Well, if you are one of 484,674 residents of New Orleans (every man, woman, child), you each get $516,528.00.

b. Or, if you have one of the 188,251 homes in New Orleans , your home gets $1,329,787.00.

c. Or, if you are a family of four, your family gets $2,066,012.00.

Washington , D.C. .... HELLO!!! .. Are all your calculators broken??

This is too true.........And these numbers don't lie.........and, it's not funny!!!

WHAT AN EYE-OPENER! Now!, imagine how much good work these billions of dollars could do if used to help our own citizens.
