#1 An idea so crazy that it just might work.

#2 Illegals would not be such a problem if Washington had the cojones in the past; instead they let the problem fester.

Based on the NAS[National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine]data, illegal border-crossers create an average fiscal burden of approximately $74,722 during their lifetimes, excluding any costs for their U.S.-born children. If a border wall stopped between 160,000 and 200,000 illegal crossers — 9 to 12 percent of those expected to successfully cross in the next decade — the fiscal savings would equal the $12 to $15 billion cost of the wall.

In addition to crossing the border surreptitiously, aliens join the illegal population primarily by overstaying a temporary visa. A southern border wall would not address this part of the illegal flow.

So what is the true cost of illegals staying in the country?
